The teachers were so caring as if they were our own parents and they take very good care of us when we were kids. Not to mention they made learning so much fun and beyond school, they taught us how to be kind to one another. I'm 27 years old now and I'm a Real Estate Agent now and I just wanted to share with everyone that Nuevo Mundo being my first school I've ever attended it lead me to my path in education and it lead me to the path they wanted all of their students to be. I highly recommend any parents who wants their kids to have not only a fresh start in school but to have a good foundation to walk on to want to continue pursuing education as they get older have Nuevo Mundo be that foundation for your kids. Thank you

Nyisha and her team of teachers made learning fun, and integrated learning into hands-on activities and projects to the point that my kids will now fondly flip back through the optional workbooks they were each given and reminisce about picking oranges from the tree to make orange juice or making mud pies in the mud kitchen (I think the mud was imaginary, but am not quite sure - either way it's a fond memory for my kids). Their kindergarten teachers asked where they'd gone to preschool, and I could point directly back to the way that Nyisha and her team gently and consistently guided them towards developing critical thinking skills, skills like "how to look at the book the teacher is reading so you see the pictures before she turns the page despite being in a classroom full of other interesting and distracting children", and even how they approached toilet learning with us. Thanks again to the HG Learning Academy team!

Also, since lunch is provided, it's less stress the mornings for me! The staff treat you like family, and really get to know your child individually. The Director, Ms. Angela is wonderful and very prompt in her responses to any concerns. We love Pinole Montessori!

The classrooms are well-equipped with age-appropriate Montessori activities, keeping her engaged and offering practice in various subjects like English, Math, Chinese, Science, and Art. She loves her teachers and often talks about them at home. I can see they are doing an excellent job teaching her not just academics, but also good behavior and independence. The teachers organize a variety of well-planned activities and events throughout the year for both US and Chinese holidays. Our family enjoys participating in these events, and we appreciate the many photos and videos shared with parents afterward to capture the memories. Another great feature of Little Tree is the optional lunch program. For $6 a day, they provide a tasty, nutritious, and balanced meal, which is one less thing for me to worry about.

From the first interview, I knew i could trust Nona and Nono. Unlike other places that would let my son do whatever, they provided a learning structure for him that was fun and inclusive. They were very patient in communicating with him and teaching him how to verbalize his needs. It is also quite impressive how they were able to set boundaries to teach him about discipline. By the way, I think Nona makes the best healthy meals for the kids.Til this day i still struggle to have him eat beans, veggies and fruits that for some reason he would happily eat there. The place is also very clean and i can see why because everyday during pick up I watch them dry and wet vac the entire place. Tia Gris was also a phenomenal aid there. So patient, so caring, and constantly teaching them even during free play. I have nothing but praises for them. They even taught us a thing or two about parenting, which we appreciate. Just dont be late to pick up your kids, because there is zero tolerance policy lol. At the end, i feel like my kid has grown so much in the time he spent there. He's so much more verbal and independent now. Most importantly he was happy and loved there like a second family. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

We have loved being part of the 1, 2, 3 Learn With Me family and feel so lucky to have found them. Nonna, Nonno, and Tia Gris provide excellent care with an educational focus. In their care, our daughter has become fluent in Spanish and has even been teaching us since we do not speak the language ourselves. She came home every day with art and activities to show us, made lots of friends, and ate a wide variety of food that we could never get her to eat at home! Nonna and Nonno are so helpful with any parenting questions or concerns - as first time parents it has been fantastic to have them on our team as we raise our kids! As the daughter of a public school teacher, I was happy to find out that many of the kids at the daycare are the children of educators. Getting to meet those parents and learn about the local schools is an added bonus as we transition into TK. We would recommend 1, 2, 3 Learn With Me to any parent looking for childcare and look forward to our son receiving the high quality care we have come to appreciate.

That first meeting really stuck with me, and it made me feel good about choosing L&P Montessori for my son. Ms. Norma, Ms. Karima, and Ms. Ava have been amazing. They go out of their way to make every child feel comfortable and cared for. My son can be a handful; he's energetic, can be wild at times, and is very selective about the people. They have been nothing but patient and kind with him. I want to comment about Ms. Jackie because I recently saw a negative review about her, and it made me really sad to see what was written about her. It's tough to see something like that written about someone, knowing that words like those can really hurt a person's character and reputation. I've never seen any of the behaviors mentioned in the negative review but only kindness from Ms. Jackie, even the times I would drop off my son and didn't know I was there. She's always sweet and patient, especially with kids who are having a rough morning. My son is talkative and not afraid to speak his mind if something's wrong. If there was ever anything off, my son would be the first to tell me if Ms. Jackie was not nice. Even in the older kids' classrooms, the staff and teachers are friendly, nice, and acknowledges you during drop off/pick-ups. It's a place where I know my son is safe, respected, and genuinely cared for. I'm so glad we found Learn and Play Montessori.

As a parent, I would like to remain anonymous, but I felt compelled to share how grateful our…read morefamily is for Learn and Play Montessori School. I made a Yelp account just for this. From the moment we enrolled our child, we knew we had found something special. The school provides a warm, welcoming, and nurturing environment where children feel safe, loved, and excited to learn each day. The staff and teachers genuinely care about every child and go above and beyond to support their academic, social, and emotional development. The school is clean, organized, and thoughtfully designed to create a positive learning environment. We also appreciate the emphasis on diversity, creativity, and building strong character. Choosing a school for your child is one of the most important decisions a parent can make, and we feel incredibly fortunate to be part of the Learn and Play Montessori family. We wholeheartedly recommend this school to any family looking for a caring, enriching, and supportive place for their child to grow. As a parent, reading these reviews, I felt it was important to share how truly wonderful Ms. Jackie has been as a teacher especially with my daughter. From the very first day, it was clear that teaching is not just a job for her, but a genuine passion. She creates an environment that is warm, nurturing, and filled with joy. My child feels safe, loved, and excited to go to school each day, and as a parent, there is no greater comfort than knowing your child is in such caring and capable hands. Ms. Jackie has an incredible ability to connect with each child individually and make them feel special and valued. She is patient, kind, and endlessly creative, always finding fun and engaging ways to help the children learn and grow. It is obvious that she puts her whole heart into everything she does. Her duality of being in a classroom and helping Ms. Lizette in the office is noticed as well. Ms. Lizette, thank you for all of your hard work as the Director as it is not an easy position. What stands out most is the love and dedication she shows not only to the children but also to the families. She communicates clearly, celebrates each child's milestones, and handles every situation with professionalism and grace. Her positive energy is contagious, and she has made a lasting impact on our family. Because of Ms. Jackie, my child has grown tremendously emotionally. We have seen increased confidence, independence, and a genuine love of learning. Teachers like Ms. Jackie are rare gems. She goes above and beyond every single day, and any school would be incredibly fortunate to have her. Our family will always be grateful for the difference she has made in our child's life. To the other faculty and staff, we are so blessed to be apart of a school that brings so much love and peace to my daughter. Every teacher continues to make a difference in every child's life that is enrolled at the school and it saddens me that this school does not go all the way up to 8th grade! If you are interested in this school, know no matter which teacher your child has, they will grow into their best versions as it makes you excited for what it is to come with them in their future education journey. Thank you teachers. Sincerely, A Grateful Parent (Anonymous)
