Over the course of her time there, she has grown tremendously--both academically and socially--and we couldn't be more pleased with how well-prepared she is as she moves on to kindergarten. Academically, the preschool provided a solid foundation in early literacy, math, and critical thinking skills. She learned not only her letters and numbers, but also how to ask questions, express her thoughts clearly, and approach new tasks with confidence and curiosity. The curriculum was thoughtfully designed to make learning fun, engaging, and age-appropriate. Just as important, the school created a nurturing environment that helped her blossom socially. She learned how to make friends, resolve conflicts, share, and work together with others--all key skills she continues to work on and will carry with her for years to come. Her confidence has grown, and she now communicates her feelings and ideas with ease. The teachers and staff are truly exceptional--patient, kind, and genuinely invested in each child's development. We always felt she was safe, supported, and encouraged to be herself. It's clear that a lot of love and care goes into everything they do. We feel incredibly lucky to have been part of the DanMont community and would wholeheartedly recommend it to any family looking for a warm, enriching, and academically strong start for their child.

    Our 4 year old son started at LAPMS last summer and the transition was extremely smooth for him…read more He had gone to another montessori school before we moved to Danville so he adjusted well due to this but his three teachers at LAPMS were all so warm, loving, and caring. Academically, they had them work on a simple book report every week in order to start introducing the concept of homework to them, they also used Kindergarten-level math books so my son was already doing addition and subtraction problems in the 12s and 13s by the end of the year. Additionally, my son's reading skills drastically improved while at LAPMS due to the teachers adjusting the reading materials and worksheets to match each child's different reading level. Now, my son has graduated from LAPMS and attends Kindergarten at one of the SRVUSD elementary schools and he whips through the homework assignments and continues to excel in reading. I truly feel that my son's teachers set him up for success for Kindergarten and I am truly grateful for the school. When my son recently ran into his former LAPMS teacher, the teacher embraced my son and was so genuinely happy to see him again. You could just see how much they care about each child. We now have our 2 year old enrolled at LAPMS and after about a month of some tears and a transitioning phase, he also now loves going to school. His 3 teachers also are always so loving, extremely patient and warm individuals. I have never seen them lose their patience even with a room full of toddlers! I also have asked them to adjust our son's napping schedule and they have always been very accommodating and willing to make changes as needed. They also diligently provide updates on diaper changes, nap times and photos of activities throughout the day. Something I also noticed about the LAPMS staff is that I see teachers from other classrooms help in other classrooms as needed even if it's just for a short amount of time and they always do it with a smile. I feel this shows the camaraderie between the staff where they have the same goal to support and care for all students at LAPMS and they do it as a united team. I usually don't post reviews on Yelp but felt compelled to do so for LAPMS because of the very positive experience we've had. Thank you LAPMS Danville staff!

I had the chance to visit their classroom this morning during Parent Observation Week, and it was such a meaningful experience. Watching the children engaged in their Montessori work firsthand really highlighted how thoughtfully the environment is prepared. The classroom felt calm, organized, and full of purpose, and it was wonderful to see how much independence and confidence the children are encouraged to develop. A big thank you to Ms. Esra and the entire team at LAPMS. Your patience, dedication, and care truly make a lasting impact. We're so grateful!

    Finding a daycare you trust with your kids feels a little like handing over your heart every…read moremorning--and somehow, A New World of Montessori made that feel easy. One of the biggest things that drew us in was something surprisingly hard to find--they welcomed both of our kids. When our daughter was just 16 months old and our son was 3.5, we were able to send them together, which was incredibly important to us. Many places don't accept younger children, so this alone meant the world--but it quickly became clear it was just the beginning of what makes this place special. The environment is genuinely warm and loving. Every child is seen, heard, and cared for in a way that feels personal. As a parent, you can tell this isn't just supervision--it's connection. Our kids come home happy, talking about their day, their friends, and what they learned. Another thing we really appreciate is how the classrooms are structured by age group. Each child gets to socialize and learn alongside peers at a similar stage, which has been great for their development. At the same time, during midday playtime, our two kids still get the chance to see and play with each other for a bit--which is something they both love. There's also an amazing variety of activities. From soccer to dance to music, they bring in specialized teachers who clearly love what they do, which adds so much depth and excitement to the kids' experience. It's not just playtime--it's enrichment in the best way. On a practical level, they make life easier for parents too. Providing snacks and meals takes a huge daily burden off our plate, and we've really appreciated the structure they teach the kids--everything from nap time routines to mealtime habits and even cleaning up after themselves. Those little lessons go a long way at home. One thing that truly stands out is the communication. Miss Mona is fantastic at keeping parents informed and connected--she consistently makes sure we're up to date on our children's progress and development. That level of transparency and care gives us so much confidence and peace of mind. And on a lighter note--they are amazing at making dads look good. I'll admit, I'm terrible at tying my daughter's hair, and there were definitely mornings where I sent her in with a very questionable, super loose ponytail. Somehow, by pickup time, it would be transformed into a perfectly done style--even a beautiful braid--making it look like I had everything under control. (For the record, mommy got the illusion... but none of that hair magic was done by dad!) We also love how they keep parents involved in the day-to-day moments. We regularly receive photos and videos throughout the week, and it means so much to get those glimpses into our kids' days--the smiles, the activities, and the little moments we'd otherwise miss. Beyond the care itself, they're incredibly practical for working families. Their pricing is very competitive, and they're open when many other schools are closed for holidays, which really helps minimize the amount of sick or vacation time we have to take off work. Their summer programs are another highlight--plenty of outdoor time, plus fun activities like water tables and slip-and-slides that the kids absolutely love. And when it comes to big milestones like potty training, they work closely with families to keep things consistent between home and school, which makes a huge difference. At the end of the day, there's no better feeling than knowing your kids are safe, happy, and truly cared for. We're incredibly grateful for the community they've created and the role they've played in our children's early years.

They put together really fun and thoughtful activities and events for the holidays for the kids and parents. They also make all the snacks and lunches for the kids which is such a time saver, and I think encourages kids to eat since they are all eating the same thing together. The facility is always clean and they have a great outdoor space for the kids to play. My daughter adored all the teachers she had and we will miss them all. We are only leaving to go to a school closer to home. Thank you to the whole new world team!

After reading reviews and talking with various people, Garden seemed to be a good fit for our family. Garden Montessori fosters independence while providing a warm and supportive environment where children thrive. The teachers encourage children to create and discover new things. I appreciate that my daughter has the autonomy to choose what she wants to work on or learn, on a daily basis, while still being prepared for the next steps in her education. My daughter loves learning and practicing new skills, and I feel that the teachers at Garden really help fuel that passion. In addition to academic skills and independence, Garden nurtures children to be confident, kind, and caring. Garden is a great place that my daughter looks forward to going to everyday, and I agree with the other parents when they call it a gem! I am so glad to be part of the Garden Montessori community.

    Our son started at Redwood International Montessori 2 years ago. He is 4 now and is flourishing at…read moreschool. He can write from 1-50, knows quite a bit of Spanish, "reads" to the other kids and has learned so much more than I could've anticipated. He's an outgoing child and likes to goof around. The teachers give him space to be silly and can also authoritatively but compassionately reign him in. I know he'll be more than prepared for Kindergarten. The teachers also plan family events throughout the year such as Mothers and Fathers Day celebrations, concerts, grandparents day, and student birthday celebrations. They incorporate many days where the kids can bring items from home to share (such as hike day at school, bring your favorite book, etc.). Our son is always excited for these days. The location of the school is very convenient for our family. It's near 680 but not so close that you hear it. It's across the street from an area with swim lessons, gymnastics lessons, and indoor soccer, so our son always says "hi" to his school when we're going to activities there. Tuition is very comparable to other preschools, but this school offers helpful drop-off and pick-up times for two working parents. Not many preschools in the area offer the same times.

Long story short, after 4 months, more than 2/3 of her behavioral items, such as tantrum, difficulty in listening instructions, sharing with friends, etc, have been fixed and I can tell that even at our home. Our daughter loves her school, and is happy to go there everyday. The director Ms. Annagi has almost 40 years of experience in Montessori education. Other teachers (Ms. Yessania, Ms. Laxmi, Ms. Evelyn) are also very experienced. They know how to deal with problems of kids, and they guide kids to the right path without yelling or being frustrated. I saw that their tone of voice was calm but had discipline and charisma. Teachers are very communicative and always opened to discuss issues of children. If there's any issue, they give brief verbal report with advice when I pick her up. Also, the education of TRIMONT is well-balanced and well-organized. They give the monthly schedule filled with daily themes and focuses, and follow the schedule accordingly. Of course since it's Montessori school, each student learns by their own pace when it comes to phonics, math and other Montessori work, but they all learn various topics together which covers science, culture, art, geography, season, etc. Our 4.5 year old daughter already reads Kindergarten-level books, recognizes and writes numbers from 1-50, can even complete addition and subtraction. When we had a private conference before Thanksgiving holidays, they gave us a thorough assessment sheet about our daughter. We could easily understand her status and things she needs to learn more until Kindergarten. I'm very satisfied with TRIMONT, and would definitely recommend this school to others in area.

To the point that, I wasn't sure if I was going to send my daughter to pre-school before Kindergarten. That was until I learned about Tree of Life and met the owner Kelley, If you are looking for a place where you feel comfortable and happy every day to send your child to school, this is the school for you. This was my daughter's first experience being away from me and after only one day going School she fell in love with it. My daughter woke up every morning excited to go to school and sad to leave. She would count down the days when school was closed and ask me to wake her up early when the break was over. While my daughter quickly learned how to spell her name and read, in my opinion, what I appreciated the most was the life skills she gained. My daughter was taught kindness, honesty, giving back to the less fortunate and how important it is to respect all cultures and people. The owner Kelley is truly a gift. She has created a family dynamic on campus that is felt in every class. She is present on campus, connected with all parents and students and she staffs her school with the most amazing group of educators that truly love your children as their own. I feel extremely grateful and blessed to have gotten the opportunity to send my daughter to Tree of Life. It has set my daughter up for success for the rest of her life.

I also love the flexibility and full-day options for working parents. There are very few other facilities in this area that cover childcare for the full day so Fountainhead has really saved us. I also appreciate that they invest in updating the facility to keep it clean, nice, and in good working order for the kids. Also, they have fun special days for the kids like bringing a petting zoo to school and visits at the school from the police force and firefighters. They put a lot of love and care into providing a variety of opportunities for the kids to learn. I would recommend this location for older children (age 3+) but I'm mixed on sending a little one here if you like more pro-active communication about your child. There's a staff change halfway through the day so the afternoon crew doesn't know what happens with your kid in the morning and it is not their model to give you insight into the daily happenings of your child. Not a concern as my daughter got older but would have been nice during her younger years when there was so much growth and development (and she couldn't yet communicate with me). One other thing to note is the billing department is run by one person and it's a complex system and thus, prone to human error. We were overbilled twice by hundreds of dollars and wouldn't have caught it unless we were closely auditing their confusing invoices. I hope they can improve that in the future. Overall, I would recommend this preschool to anyone looking for care for their talking child.

    Absolutely Exceptional - More Than Just a School…read more Year after year, this Montessori school continues to amaze our family. It is rare to find a place that balances rigorous academic excellence with such a genuine focus on character development and respect. We have watched our youngest (now 4) blossom here over the last two years. The growth in his education level is nothing short of outstanding--he is learning concepts I wouldn't have expected at his age, yet he is doing it with joy and curiosity. But beyond the academics, what impresses me most is the school's commitment to constantly bringing in new activities and enhancing the learning environment. They never settle; they are always finding ways to be better. A few amazing days of the year for you and the family: All the Holidays - The school ensures we celebrate holidays from across all cultures and life. Fathers' Night: An amazing way to connect their children with their fathers. One of the best moments I look forward to every year. I Mother Tea Time: Another amazing experience for the children to spend some quality academic and fun time with their moms. This standard of excellence isn't limited to just one teacher; it is consistent across the board. Every staff member, at every level, cares deeply about these children. If you are looking for a place that will truly invest in your child's future, this is it. We couldn't be happier.
