You know what they say, when everything is great, not many people come on here to review. Well, as…read morefor me, I've had my daughter at the Montessori Garden since she was barely 18 months old. She has grown now and is almost ready to graduate from Ms. Belkis's class next year. First, let me start with the cleanliness of this school, which is very important to me. The care and love they have for the children are evident, and I'm not just speaking for my own. Even though I know she's the favorite... shhh, let me not say that out loud. lol. The routine and lessons have taught my daughter discipline, independence, and manners. She is in the Spanish-only class, which I feel is very important. She counts 1-15 in Spanish, knows all her basic colors, animals, and much more. She sings, dances, and is pretty much as happy as can be every single day. She loves her friends and visits the ones that have moved on to the bigger class. This is the best investment anyone can make for their kids. I love Ms. D, Ms. Belkis, Ms. Mayleni, and Ms. Isabel, and I also appreciate the other teachers as well. Love,

We are so grateful for our time at TMG. From the very beginning, they treated us like family…read more Always welcoming, kind, and genuinely loving toward my children. My kids thrived here and were truly cared for in every way. My son left this school not only potty trained, but also independent, confident, and full of grace and courtesy. Both of my children now greet others with a warm "good morning" or "hello," something that has carried over beautifully into their new school. I've even been told multiple times that they are model students, and I know without a doubt it's because of the love, hard work, and dedication poured into them here. My daughter also left this school reading and writing with confidence, speaking in such a mature and thoughtful way for her age. The foundation she received here continues to shine through in her new environment. As Montessori says, education is a partnership between teacher, parent, and child and this school lived that truth every single day. I could not have done it alone, and I'll forever be thankful for the foundation they gave my children.

What a difference this school has been! The teachers truly care for their students, they do anything and everything in their power to see their students improve and progress!

I really have nothing negative to say at all. My son came to this school (at 3 years old) not able to color, use scissors, not even hold a pencil and now he could do all those things and much more!

I am surprised to be the first to review, being that this school is GOLD. I feel so much love for…read moreWMM, so this is going to be a loonnng review. My partner and I toured SO MANY schools, big and small, near and far, Montessori, Reggio Emilio, Creative Curriculum, etc you name it, and WMM was way above the rest by a large margin. It was not only the most beautiful environment, but also the cleanest, calmest and most welcoming. It is magical and I am not exaggerating. I have read Montessori's 'The Absorbent Mind' and I felt that it was the one most in line with her teachings. The director of the school, Ms. Emily is on another level of human being,I don't know how she does it; she is a warm, kind, detailed, hardworking and flexible individual. (You can also tell she has a great eye for aesthetics and creating an ambience, from the moment you walk in the door.) She immediately made us feel at ease after that first visit. She radiates a serenity that reflects throughout her school. I wanted IN immediately, but there was a small waitlist, so we enrolled our daughter at another Montessori that paled in comparison, where after the first week she cried everyday. It was heartbreaking and I took her out promptly. Thankfully, the heavens opened and I received that email from Ms. Emily. It is true when I say that there was no adjustment period, my daughter went from not wanting to go to school, to asking to go to school, to seeing the building and clapping her hands with joy. But it isn't only Ms. Emily and the environment that makes this school so special, it is also all the other incredible staff of women that guide the children daily. Every morning, who ever opens the door is genuinely warm and always has a big smile on their face, my daughter walks right in and doesn't even look back to say bye (this is a good sign to me). Whether it be Ms. Millie with her big and warm hello or Ms. Mari or Ms. Marta or Ms. Lili everyone is equally amazing. Last but definitely not least is Ms. Lisette, my daughter's lead teacher. Every time she opens the door to greet us in the morning with her big and beautiful smile, my daughter is so freaking happy to see her that she runs straight into her arms, gives her a big hug and wants nothing more to do with me. I mean, can I ask for any more proof of the love and nurturing that is given to her by Ms. Lisette. It is not only her emotional needs that are being nurtured, but she is also learning so much. She does yoga and ballet at school and learns practical life and socials skills amongst other things. She comes home talking (as best as she can at her age) about Ms. Lisette and naming all her little classmates to me, she comes home with little projects and singing songs. She's just short of 2 but she can pretty much count to 10 and almost knows all her ABC's; her development has just taken leaps. In conclusion, I am so grateful to have found this gem that is WMM and that Ms. Emily welcomed us into her school. Hoping they could expand all the way to 8th grade somehow :) but I know that's a lot of work and some wishful thinking on my part, but still, it would be amazing.

I was skeptical at first after being disappointed by a few tours as well as overwhelmed, however, the moment my husband and I walked inside, we both immediately glanced at each other amazed by how wonderfully welcoming it was. My initial amazement was its cleanliness and it smelled so wonderful! As a first time parent, this school met all of our needs. We enrolled our daughter at 19 months old and she adjusted within 3 days, with barely a tear! She now runs to the door and doesn't even look back. Ms. Emily is the director and the first person we met during the tour. She has the kindest eyes! She was welcoming and very thorough. She has done an incredible job and should be proud. My daughters teachers are Ms. Lili And Ms. Marta. Both of these wonderful and patient ladies greet us everyday with a huge smile eager to see our girl! It's so much appreciated!! I've had brief interactions with other teachers between picking up and dropping off and Ms Milly is a doll!! I recently met Ms Maria who seems just as sweet as the rest of the team. Despite COVID restrictions, such as social distancing amongst parents and not being able to attend typical holiday gatherings, you still get the family environment! I've encountered few parents and everyone is kind and patient with one another! I look forward to watching our girl grow and thrive! Thank you to all the wonderful teachers!!

As a mom with two toddlers who have attended this center, I've witnessed a beautiful transformation over the years. In the earlier days, there were several changes in management, and while leadership did the best they could with the tools they had, things felt a bit inconsistent. Now, under the guidance of the newly appointed director, the center has truly blossomed. She has brought a clear vision and shifted the school's philosophy toward a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach, which I believe is a beautiful and enriching way for children to learn and grow. She's not only improved the physical spaces, making them cleaner, more organized, and more engaging for the children, but has also cultivated strong relationships with both the teaching staff and the families. You can truly feel how deeply she cares about the children, their safety and development, and the well-being of the entire school community. I wholeheartedly recommend this place a thousand percent!

We were very impressed with the curriculum and staff, so we decided to enroll. And it was the right decision! Our two children had wonderful experiences at this school, and we really enjoyed the relationship/dynamic between us, the school and the families. The staff was incredibly caring and committed. For one, they did a stellar job tackling the challenges brought on by COVID. Beyond that, they were proactive about the individual care and progress of our children, and always kept us informed and involved. And they were always looking for ways to learn and improve as teachers. They care just as much as you do about making your children succeed. As for our children, they were able to learn so many things in a variety of ways, and they were very well prepared to handle the structure and rigors of traditional schooling once they left. But most importantly: they were very happy! They had a strong and understanding community, had opportunities to shine, and developed skills beyond your typical schooling.

I was lucky enough to meet her the day I visited the school with my son. She gave me a tour and explained to me about they're routines and how they're lunches and snacks are junk food free and cooked & prepared on the daily.
