They have a very clear and easy process for pick up, timing, paperwork, and great communication throughout. We missed a step in the process regarding providing a piece of paperwork that we ended up needing for our taxes. When we reached out for support, they were very quick to respond and support us in getting what we needed. We received a very reasonable tax write off from the donation as well. Overall great, easy experience and the woman that supported us was super friendly and personable the whole way through.

It's almost like a hidden gem because she…read moreused to be located in SLP and then when the space was no longer available they had to relocate to a new location in GV-but they had a waitlist of 30 plus kids for years! With both my children, I have tried several other places over the years and nothing compares to Bassett Creek, my 11 month is currently going to the school and it's been a game changer for her! She's a very particular little one-haha. She had been going to an in-home daycare prior and it was a nightmare, I even had hired a home nanny for temporary till we could find a place that was a great fit for my baby girl. Once we found this school and met Helen it was a perfect fit! Helen is the owner and treats every child from infant to toddler as her own! They genuinely care about each and every child like family. I am so thankful to have found this school as it has been such a blessing.

I did NOT appreciate that 0-15 month olds and 16-3 year olds have SCREENS here. That's not only NOT…read moreMontessori but also NOT good for Brain development. I pulled my child out and now am staying home with my kiddo full time. Reading "Better Late than Early" book convinced me that my toddler does not need preschool. We cut down our expenses so we can live on one income. Mommy or daddy, stay home with your child. Letting someone else raise them psychologically DAMAGES them. I dot recommend this center at all mostly due to the use of SCREENS.

The teachers are so kind, the environment is bright and clean and inviting. My younger son has always been very strong willed, and refuses to be coerced into anything, but at school, he has begun to challenge himself more and more. Skills that we can't get him to try at all, he suddenly comes home willing and proud to show us. The community is warm, and I adore everyone there. It's affordable, small, and very personal. I can't recommend Augsburg Park Montessori enough.

I would like to share my experience with EPM, which has been quite mixed. While the school has a…read moresolid reputation, I left disappointed.  Not only in the education my daughter received, but also the overall attitude of the staff and unprofessional communication.   Communication from the staff was often unclear and inconsistent. I found myself acting on their recommendations, only to have them recant those suggestions when it was convenient for them.  It felt like I was being gaslit.  At times, my daughter's provider recommendations were not followed.  They would state my daughter was the only child not napping as an example, but yet there was a room full of children not napping.  They stated my daughter didn't have friends not knowing that we played with kids from class on regular basis and still do to this day.    A particularly memorable incident that encapsulates my experience occurred on Halloween. My daughter was thrilled to wear her light-up princess dress, exuding pride and excitement as she arrived at school. However, the teacher checking in students remarked, "wow, that is distracting," in an annoyed voice, which was incredibly deflating for my daughter.  I think my daughter picked up on that she was not liked by the staff and that impacted her.  The overall lack of smiles or morale didn't seem good in my experience.   Changing a child's daycare/school setting can cause a lot of disruption.  That is the only reason why we stayed as long as we did and tried to make it work.   On a positive note, Soccer Shots, Wee-Move, and Piano teachers/coach were great.

The teachers and staff are all very caring, and got to know our kids really well from the start. Our kids (2.5 year-old in Toddler and almost 5 year-old in Casa) had an easy time adjusting.

Both of our kids participate in activities that come to school (piano, dance, yoga, soccer) and enjoyed them, too!
