I already left a detailed review on Google for Kids Country Canyon Park about the wonderful…read moreteachers and the nurturing, caring atmosphere the team provides. Here, I especially want to highlight the director, Haleemah. Haleemah truly does her best to address parents' concerns. I can't thank her enough for always listening to my worries about my kids and responding thoughtfully and professionally. She takes concerns seriously and handles them in the best way she knows how -- and that ultimately gives me so much peace and confidence as a mom. As parents, feeling heard makes all the difference. Haleemah creates that sense of trust and partnership, and that is not easy to find.

All of the teachers genuinely care about the children, and it shows through their work. Now that my twins are toddler age, they are learning so much from their teachers (special shout out to Ms. Chayo and Ms. Arely). They are always doing art projects, reading books, learning new skills and the care that their teachers have for them is the best that I could imagine. KC management is great, caring and responsive. Kids Country is their home away from home and I truly trust their care and direction. So thankful we found kids country.

She is very good at listening and makes parents feel that we have been heard and she is an excellent communicators. Shino ,Latha and Rachel go above and beyond taking care of our children.

It sure warms our hearts when we see teachers being compassionated. We learn a lot by watching the camera and thank you kiddie academy for being transparent.

She helped him eat well, nap well, got him laugh, got him to play with the other babies, and captured great pictures of him laughing! The teachers worked together well to help with the transition to toddler room; during outside time, the infant room teacher would make sure our son got a chance to play with the toddler room teacher to get used to her. Our kid really likes the toddler room teacher too, and eats, sleeps, and plays well there too. The director has been great too; she's reachable and communicative, and talks through any concerns we have in an empathetic and informative way. The daycare is very clean too, and the lady who cleans is also super nice and says hi to us and our kid every day when we pick him up.

We stuck it through bad and good hoping it…read morewill get better Pros: -Decent play ground for the kids. -Few teacher are decent. -Certified -More humble than Woodinville Montessori -Flexible ( when I had requested for changes Joe was able to make them) Cons: -They got rid of all the good teachers. Extra effort by these teachers gave were discouraged. -Watch out for teacher that talk well but do not follow up. These teachers will get your child evaluations wrong. Also, kids at this age are unable to determine if the teacher is bad or good. Look for attitude or behavioral changes in your kids and act quickly to reduce the damage of bad teachers. The damage maybe done quickly but recovery could take years. Our first child had a horrible teacher and we did not even know it until was too late. Once we took action we noticed positive changes. -Teacher turnover. Most years our kids get different teachers. Often the new teachers were worse. -Involuntairy Diana fund which is suppose to goto family that need extra help. Not sure where all the is spent. -administration -Not qualifed family members working as teachers and admins. -We taught them better at home barely trying than the school -Did not handle covid situation well. Montessori is all about the teacher relationship not with the school. Certificate of Montessori is also based on teachers which give the schools the claim to be certified. There are not great options for Montessori in the Bothell area. I heard Issaquah maybe better. Woodinville Montessori especially is all about making money from the most wealth and unfortunately this Montessori is the same, albeit less obvious than Woodinville. If we were to do it over we might of taken Heritage preschool with some emphasis on play based learning. It was not worth the extra money and time. We spent extra hoping the investment will be well worth it for our kids. After 5 years we are still believers of play based learning but this was just okay. When we had great teachers it was worth it but they were not around long enough for us.

The Director Joanne, Assistant Director RJ, and Toddler Teachers Ms. Cami and Ms. Helen have been a God-send. They have and continuously uphold high standards, truly care about the wellbeing and education of your child, and are genuinely invested in having your family as a part of their community. It was a steep learning curve for myself, being anxious entrusting my treasure and heart to complete strangers, but through transparent communication and above and beyond efforts from the individuals above, trust and bonds were quickly built. The teachers are always focused on interacting with the children at their level and are so engaged during every moment of everyday. Both teachers put in so much time and effort, not only for the children, but also the classroom environment, so that the children truly get the best experience possible!! The consistency of attendance with the teachers are also outstanding and rare for the field!! My husband and I truly feel so grateful for these 4 individuals in helping our child during this crucial development period in her life and for helping us, her parents, get through the difficult pages of these early chapters **pictures depicting children have been edited and screenshotted to protect their privacy**

Evergreen Academy Montessori has been such a wonderful experience for our family. As a first-time…read moremom returning to work, I was incredibly nervous about putting my baby in daycare at around 3 months old, but the team here made the transition so much easier. From the very beginning, the environment has felt warm, welcoming, and supportive. The teachers and admin staff are so kind and caring, and it's clear they truly love what they do. They always take a few minutes to chat during drop-off and pick-up, which makes me feel connected and reassured about how my little one's day is going. The staff always rave about my little one and how cute and wonderful they are. Warms my heart. One of my favorite things is receiving pictures throughout the day. It's so comforting to see my little one smiling, playing, and being well cared for while I'm at work. I also really appreciate how the teachers partner with parents and share Montessori activities we can try at home. It's been so special to learn simple ways to support my child's development and continue some of the same learning and exploration outside of school. I'm so grateful for the care and attention the staff provides, and it has given me such peace of mind knowing my baby is in such good hands. I would absolutely recommend Evergreen Academy Montessori to other families looking for a nurturing, supportive environment for their children.

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.
