In 4 months with them he learned more than he had in 18 at his previous school! Not only that but he learned how to learn! They are also amazing at working with all ages and dispositions. I cannot wait until my 22 month old can start at teeter tots! I cannot recommend this school enough. Please don't let the lack of a fancy or modern facade deter you from sending your child here. My son is starting kindergarten this fall and I am sad he won't have Judy and Linda but know my youngest will benefit from their experience and wisdom!

Our kids have been to Birch Tree (BTA) over the past 4 years. We've had an amazing experience, and…read morerecently realized how exceptional it is compared to other daycares. We took for granted the high quality care and high standards set by the management and staff. We took a short break and moved our youngest to another daycare for a month just to be closer to our house (national chain daycare in Kenmore), and it was literally night and day. The other daycare was subpar in quality and extremely short staffed, even though the tuition was comparable. We decided to move them back to Birch Tree, and drive the extra miles. What we love about Birch Tree is the management, warm and caring teachers who give lots of hugs, home cooked food, facilities, quality education, classroom camera and Bright Wheel App. Despite the locations expansion, BTA still feels locally owned and the owner Natalie and head of schools Jessica are very much involved in all of their schools. You will still see them in-person floating around the different locations. They generally know all student's names, and the local staff are always friendly and greating parents. They hold their staff to high standards and also expect the same of parents. Kids are well behaved, they wear inside vs outside shoes. Food is better than my home cooked meals, classrooms are modern with high ceilings and large windows, and all teachers have open communication with parents via the instant messaging feature. The admin staff is also on top of communication, and they have an abundance of teachers and admin staff. They also offer weekly PE, music, and Spanish classes which are all included in the price. They also offer parents night-out occasionally, and host events and weekly summer field trips for pre-k. You can do 3, 4, or 5 days a week. Speaking with staff, they enjoy working there and say that there's opportunity for them to grow and take on different roles within the school or office. Other parents we've met have moved from other daycares to go to BTA and seem very happy with BTA. They have well prepared our oldest for kindergarten and we are so thankful. None of these things we observed with the national chain daycare.

I sent my daughter to The Children's School and Montessori two years ago. My daughter was there for…read more10 months. I have to say I did't see her growth. My daughter was shy and passive. During the 10 months, I didn't see she had any improvement. My daughter told me she didn't talk with teachers and other kids often. She just played by herself, and the teachers never came to guide her. My daughter said most of the time, teachers were just standing there and watching them play except the circle time. My daughter went to another Montessori school which was way better. Now, she is outgoing. My feeling was that I wasted 10 months to send my daughter to The Children's School and Montessori.

We are so grateful for our time there! We chose to stay committed through Kindergarten and felt it was a worthy financial investment.

The extra time also allowed our children to strengthen their leadership skills and foster extra special friendships we still have today. Creative Montessori holds a very special place in our hearts.

We enrolled out child last year, and I see his growth almost daily - whether it's learning new words, interactions with other kids, expressing emotions more clearly, or simply showing excitement to go to "school."

Additionally, I appreciate their openness to feedback and inclusion of the parents. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and enriching environment!

The Whizz Kids Academy is a very special place that our family will always hold dear to our hearts…read more We came to Whizz Kids after our young son had a truly awful experience at Northlake Montessori in Bothell. The staff welcomed us and they were very caring for our child who had just been traumatized. The staff enthusiastically gave him the loving, and nurturing care that he deserved and this helped him heal and grow. Our son thrived in this positive environment and was soo empowered by his experience that he decided to pursue early on his career as a professional cyclist. By the age of 9 he successfully cycled across the entire United States; and was interviewed by several national celebrities along the way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyQs8dXcLJc&t=59s Our son's future looks very bright now and we acknowledge the help he received from Whizz Kids as being pivotal to helping him grow into the person he wanted to be. It's difficult to put to words how enormous of a difference the staff at Whizz Kids made in the life of our child. I only hope we can repay this gift someday.........

Our experience was that the management of this center doesn't feel the need to inform families of horrifying events involving their children and is content to tolerate poor conduct by their staff.

I cannot recommend The Treehouse enough to families who are looking for a welcoming community and play-based learning environment.
