So this went on and I had to give them 3000 for no reason at all. Workers can blame me but after I don't show up for a month they didn't even THINK of calling to ask if they should cancel it? Even though I told them to cancel my classes. When i asked for the money back they refused even though I didn't take any classes, so essentially they stole from me. No emails, no calls, no warning that they took money from us every month. Teachers are worse than before, they don't teach very well.

My child attended this school when he was 18 months old. At that age, he loved blowing raspberries…read more-- a common developmental stage in early language development. Rather than gently redirecting the behavior, one of the teachers put a mask on him, even though children under 2 are not recommended to wear masks for health and safety reasons. Unfortunately, I saw this happen to other children as well. I also witnessed and heard yelling from some teachers -- which is not only inappropriate in any early childhood setting but especially concerning for a school that claims to follow the Montessori method. You don't have to be a Montessori teacher to know that yelling at children, especially toddlers as young as 18 months to 3 years old, is not acceptable. I later confirmed with certified Montessori educators and visited other Montessori schools where this kind of behavior would never be tolerated. To be fair, there are some truly kind and capable teachers here -- like Delancey and Dina -- who genuinely treat children with care and respect. However, The director herself has also been seen yelling at children. There are two bathrooms shared by both children and staff. When the kids were potty trained, the children used to go to the bathroom alone without supervision. It wasn't until a school inspector visited that the practice changed -- only then did they start sending a teacher to accompany the children. This raises questions about the school's priorities and compliance with basic safety standards. One more thing to be aware of: at the end of the school year, parents are expected to give "tips" to each teacher -- with a minimum of $30 per teacher. If your child has one lead teacher and 3 or 4 assistants, that adds up quickly. However, the tip money is collected by the boss first, and it's unclear if or how it's distributed to the teachers who actually work with your child. That process made me uncomfortable, and I felt parents deserved more transparency. In the end, it's your decision. I just hope that by sharing my experience, I can help other parents make an informed one. Every child deserves a safe, respectful, and nurturing environment.

When my 5yo daughter and 2 yo son attended summer camp at Countryside Montessori back in 2022,…read moretheir experience was not positive. I kind of forgot about it until recently when we were talking about all of the summer camps they have attended so far and Countryside Montessori came up. My daughter started to share more details about her experience 3 years ago that concerned me. She mentioned that she would get yelled at frequently for small things like not lining up right away or for speaking up for her younger brother- something that she did out of care, not out of defiance. Once there was a birthday party and they were giving out juice boxes. When they offered one to my 2 yo son, my 5 yo daughter spoke up on his behalf and said that he doesn't like juice, to which the teacher replied "stop talking, let your brother speak for himself!!" While I understand the intention, the delivery felt a bit harsh for a 5yo who was just trying to help. Another time, my 2yo son coming home and all of a sudden he became scared of taking a bath or even a brief shower. Turns out that the teachers would hose down the kids outside to "cool them down" even though my 2yo son expressed that he didn't like it. They did not respect his wishes and kept spraying him. He eventually became terrified of water even though he used to be okay with water before this experience. When my 5yo asked them to not spray her younger brother she was often ignored. When I brought this up to the director at the time I was told "it's too hot outside, they need to cool down." Perhaps things are different during the regular school year, but based on our experience, I would not recommend this place for a summer camp. If we could give 0 stars based on how they treated my children, I would.

I'll try to keep this short... -Staff mainly spoke Chinese and most of them hardly understood English. All of the TAs are untrained high school kids (we were promised college kids and certified teachers.) Per one of the TAs they had one day of orientation and no other training whatsoever. -First day of camp was horrendous, very chaotic and disorganized. Apparently there were two camps occupying the same school. Some of the younger kids were sitting there crying bc their parents had to go to work. No teachers or TAs came to console them. -Had to buy school supplies (other camps did not require that) -Ms. Li (owner) said that all the teachers were licensed and student to teacher ratio would be 6:1 (which was not true) each class had average 15 kids with 1 teacher (i hope they were certified but i did not request to see any certification) and several TAs. - I was a chaperone for the trips and witnessed such unsafe practices as TAs did not know how to handle the kids. Kids were running all over the place and TAs where just hanging out with each other. First trip was to children museum of manhattan which was a disaster. 3 people per seat on the school bus, not all of the children wore seatbelts, 40 min ride to manhattan on a school bus with no AC in 95 degree weather. Stayed in the museum for literally 5 mins. One parent was so irate complaining that the TAs were not watching the kids and didn't know where some kids where. He was so fed up he took his kid home on his own. Then lunch was at central park in 95+ degree weather (are you kidding me?!). Kids had to pee and needed more water which no one had. -Trips were every wednesdays (4 total)- 3 museums and bowling- kids hated all of them except for the museum in LI bc the older kids got to go outside to the beach and learn about the different animals. -Activities included either kungfu or dance. My kids were not thrilled about it. My son didn't end up participating. -No ACs in the classrooms just fans. -they did not go outside to the park or anything. Only time they went out was on wednesday for the trips -the office has 3 different phone lines but when you call NO ONE picks up the phone!! In the beginning of camp I called to see how my kids were doing but could not get a hold of anyone! very frustrating and made me worry. Finally my MIL spoke to them in chinese when she picked them up and they provided 2 other numbers. The person for one of the phone line didn't even speak english! -My son's kindergarten teacher quit the second week of camp and was never replaced so my son didn't get to learn any english or math as they promised I am thinking really hard for something positive... -I think my daughter did learn something in math and english. They came home with text books and most pages were filled out. -At the end of camp all the kids do a performance. My son did not perform his kungfu but my daughter danced and she did enjoy it.
