The environment is quiet & peaceful. The children are seated, listening and focused on what is being taught. The staff is absolutely amazing and they truly want your child to succeed. Montessori is not for every child. They must be a self-learner and eager to accept a new way of doing things. Our son needs structure and the teachers hold them accountable for their actions. This makes all the difference in the world. We also noticed that the calmness of the classroom helps him stay focused. He has matured and learned so many different things within the short time that he has been in attendance and we couldn't be happier. Our only regret is not doing this sooner. We are grateful that he will be able to attend Kinder as MSDT - Clear Lake and look forward to more positive learning experiences.

I've had two children at MSODT Clear Lake for over five years now. My youngest started here when he…read morewas 4 months old and we are so glad that he did. They fostered a love of learning in him and helped him to build strong vocabulary skills very early on. Because we did not move to Clear Lake until my oldest was 18 months, he attended two other schools (including Creme de la Creme) and had a nanny prior to MSODT. If I had to do it again, he would have started at MSODT right away. Creme did not offer educational focus in the way that MSODT did. You can tell that all of the staff in the School of Infants really care in a way I didn't find with other programs. While my oldest had a slower start, MSODT Clear Lake gave him the foundation he needed and now he loves math and reading and is in the GT program. Almost every child I know who attends this school ends up skipping a grade in public school or is at the very top of their class and GT. I couldn't recommend this school more. They are fantastic in their focus to build a love of learning.

I debated on writing a review because Ms. Sara and Mickey are great people, but I feel the need to…read moremake other parents aware of the effects this place had on my child. I will start out by saying that having Mrs. Kahn as my daughters teacher was the biggest mistake I ever made as a parent. There would be times Mrs. Kahn would say," Oh your child wouldn't sit down in circle time and would go play with the toys instead, or I know her shirt has milk and paint all over it but she got upset when I tried to change her so I left it on." The first thought that came to my mind was," Aren't you the teacher?" My child wasn't bad at all, she was just excited to be in an environment with so many stimulating things in it, and as a teacher you would think her 15+ years of experience would've taught her how to handle those situations. It's as if she was so used to having perfect children and got flustered when a child didn't listen when she told them to do something the first time. And as far as my child learning anything, she didn't learn anything from her other than how to line up and go outside. The funny thing is when I would be on break from school or had her for the holidays, I would teach her the smallest things and my daughter would catch on so fast that everyone in my family could see an improvement. Why was it that she wasn't learning anything at school when she was there 5 days a week, but as soon as I taught her something on a 3 day break all of a sudden you see improvement? I'll tell you why, it's because Mrs. Kahn was NOT paying attention to my child and paid more attention to other children and was busy begging parents to give money or food to her for the parties she always threw (as if tuition wasn't enough). If she spent more time on educating the children then planning parties, maybe the children could actually learn something. My husband also would drop our daughter off and say to me ," Does she not like our daughter? She always gives us a look like she doesn't want her there, but when other children come in, she gets excited and gives them hugs." Also you know something is wrong with a teacher when the director pulls her own grandchild out of their class, and transfers them into another teachers class. In all since leaving within 3 months my child can count to 100 and can read at 3 years old, and it's all because I taught her and took her out of that school. My advice is to anybody looking at this school, DO NOT enroll your child in her class. She's obviously more focused on throwing parties and doesn't know a thing about teaching in a structured environment.

She started all of her schooling with this center and now going into 1st grade. Obviously mom and dad are happy too. The pre-kindergarten graduating ceremony was one of the cutest things ever!

I had a concerning experience with Denise at the daycare. She approached me about an incident where…read moremy daughter was bitten, she displayed an unprofessional attitude, insinuating that I was being 'double-sided' and suggesting that my child was to blame for the incident. Despite my explanation that my daughter was merely curious and did not provoke the situation, Denise's response was dismissive and lacking in empathy. It's disheartening to feel as though a caregiver is indifferent to a child's well-being, and I believe addressing this behavior is crucial for creating a supportive environment for both parents and children at the daycare. In addition to my experience with Denise, I also noticed that the toddler teachers seem overwhelmed with the number of children under their care. My final straw was witnessing my daughter's hair being pulled and her being dragged down without any acknowledgment or apology from Natalie, one of the Directors . It was alarming to see such an incident go unnoticed by the staff, and it left me questioning why my daughter seems to dread going to school. The lack of communication and accountability is deeply concerning, especially when it comes to the safety and well-being of the children. It's disheartening to be met with smiles while legitimate concerns are overlooked. I believe addressing these issues, including the staff-to-child ratio and the need for better communication and supervision. I am deeply concerned that if one of the directors has the audacity to speak to me in such a dismissive manner, then they may also have the power to influence how teachers handle parental concerns. It's troubling to think that legitimate worries expressed by parents could be overlooked or dismissed by those in positions of authority. A culture of dismissiveness from leadership can trickle down and affect how staff members interact with parents and address concerns. It's essential for the daycare's management to foster an environment of respect, accountability, and open communication, starting from the top down. Parents entrust their children's well-being to the daycare, and it's imperative that this trust is respected and upheld at all levels of the organization. Mrs Alejandra and Mrs.Sinclair are great teachers in her class but something just isn't right about the administration.

The teachers and staff are very knowledgeable and they genuinely care about the kids they teach. The curriculum that is taught here, will put my kids above what other public school children are learning, which makes me feel good. I definitely will recommend this school to any parents of children who are not of school age, to get a head start in their learning. The benefits to your child's education, will definitely out way any other school or daycare. I also wanted to extend a big thanks to Mrs. Nassarin, for all the hard work that she has done for my kids. All of the staff and teachers do a great job with children's education.

The small class sizes and mixed-age groups allow the kids to learn from each other, which has been great for their development.

Plus, it is the only AMI-certified Montessori school in Clear Lake.

My daughter is 17 months old and has been with primrose since 3 months old…read more We had toured 4 other daycares around the area and had a good feeling from primrose the moment we stepped in. We came with a list of questions, which they answered each and everyone of them. Just seeing how happy the kids were and not shy to say hi to us. Even the parents without prompt could easily tell we were new parents looking for a daycare and we had several parents walk by saying "hey, you'll love it here so don't looked any where else". Since day one we have been beyond happy with this location and those parents were so right! The location visually looked clean, smelled clean, happy kids, happy teachers, great curriculum, keep us informed, and of course adhere to COVID precautions. As being a FTM they were very patient with all my questions through out the day while I was at work. Which is so important because I have other friends that have their kids in other daycares and literally cry at work because they feel their daycare makes them feel like they are a bother or that their worry isn't warranted. When I hear this I am grateful that I found a daycare that I trust to care for my daughter, feel comfortable with all aspects, and great communication. The facility does not have a camera but that wasn't a deal breaker from us. The app they use provides us detailed information on her diaper changes, activities, pictures of them at daycare, meal/bottle times and how much they consumed, and nap times. Instead of calling if it isn't urgent your can communicate with them throught the message tab. Which totally helps especially if you are busy at work and can't be on the phone. I personally prefer no camera so that it prevents hackers to hack into it and see.my daughters routine for potential sex traffickers. Very paranoid about that. Teachers: Ms. Nguyen was one of my daughter's infant 1 teachers and she would initially be in the room to receive my daughter. The first day I dropped her off and watched through the window they placed her in a bouncer, Ms. Nguyen went to her and Quinn quickly smiled at her. That made my heart melt and of course provided me comfort. Other morning Ms. Nguyen would bring her to the window and have Quinn see us. Ms. Sayler became my daughter's favorite teacher. She has been with my daughter in the infant 1 room since the first day she has been attending. She is the afternoon teacher and would bring my daughter out to me when I pick her up and let me know how she did that day. You can tell how quickly they formed a bond with each other and it was super cute. We are sad that she won't be at Primrose in the new year to care for our next baby but happy for her new venture. I know my daughter will miss her dearly and probably realize it when she goes looking for her. Ms. Vitellio is her main infant 2 teacher and she is so sweet and super chill, which I admire for handling little humans all day! She was great in picking up teething cues, learned our daughters fake cries, weaning her off her pacifier, and helping her grow developmentally. Ms. Mary is the owner of this location but very visible! How she remembers every kids names and parents is beyond me but impressive. She is out and about helping out, which I feel is important to be hands on. My daughter also is familiar and comfortable with her which lets me know that she is very hands on! She also gives us updates on what she observes about our daughter. Ms. Cochran is the director which I know is hard to do during a pandemic and making those phone calls when a parent, child, or teacher test positive. She has always been friendly and non stressed when we see her and also knows the kid and parents well. Everyone at the front desk as well gives us updates on our child and greets us with warmth. The facility as a whole that we have interacted with has been so welcoming, friendly, and truly amazing! We honestly cannot thank this location enough and truly are blessed to have such an amazing daycare down the road from where we live.
