My daughter attended this daycare for less than a week before I pulled her out. She was terrified…read moreto go each morning, and was very uncharacteristically timid when we picked her up. The staff did not even acknowledge her, or us, when we dropped off/picked up. Definitely had a sense that something was off. We owned a business next to the center shortly after, and often watched as staff would yell, belittle, and threaten small children sitting outside play. There was constant yelling coming from the classroom nearest to our shop. After complaining to the owners, the only difference was that that staff member took the children to the opposite side of the building to play, and installed black curtains to cover her classroom windows. Several close friends and customers have also shared their own personal horror stories from this daycare. I highly recommend not taking any child to them.

Not only do they develop them academically, they also prepare them socially for building friendships and playing well with others. We were always kept up-to-date on the classroom activities and any issues our children may have encountered during their day. As a result of such a wonderful experience, all three of our kids adjusted extremely well during the transition to kindergarten. They were above their peers academically, and made friends quickly. I attribute this to the great foundation that was built at Sweet Beginnings Early Learning Center.

Wildflower Montessori has been so much more than a school for our family, it has truly been a home…read moreaway from home. They helped raise not one, but two of our children, and I cannot say enough good things about the care, love, and dedication of this place. Our son, Silas, attended Wildflower for two years before our youngest ever started. When our daughter, Sloane, joined later, it felt like coming home all over again. When Silas needed additional support that his elementary school couldn't provide, Wildflower welcomed him back with open arms without hesitation. That level of compassion and commitment is rare. We have absolutely loved every teacher we've had throughout the years. These are the only people I would ever trust with my children, to the point that we have even used Wildflower teachers as babysitters when needed. That alone speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in this team. Almost a year later, our youngest still asks if we can stop by just so she can give her teachers a hug, and I think that says everything about the kind of place Wildflower is. If you're looking for more than just a daycare, if you want a family to help raise your child while they're away from home. I highly recommend Wildflower Montessori. Our children are stronger, more confident, and more successful because of the foundation they received here, and we will forever be grateful.

Hi parents! We just…read moremoved to Parkville and prior to purchasing our home, we were on the hunt for a new provider for our 4 year old. Our kiddo is the youngest of two, so we have been through many daycares and providers in our time. To put a fine point on it, Wildflower is far and away the best provider we have found in our roughly 9 years of using multiple providers (and touring many more!) we were looking for something that takes the best of Montessori, but isn't so stuck in the Montessori world that kids aren't being taught to excel later in a more traditional education environment. Our son had attended a strict Montessori school prior and he tells us almost every day how much he *loves* school. They provide so many fun experiences to mix things up, aerial yoga, the KC zoo, the KC chiefs, and field trips to the bank and grocery stores--and all of that in just the last couple of months. Our son *adores* his teacher, and the environment does feel very much like a family. One that we're happy to be a part of. (I will note that I was not prompted to do a review, nor was I compensated in any way).

The director is very nice and good with anything extra you need for your little one (medications, having a grandparent do pick-up, etc.). It's great when my child says something that I didn't teach her, like pointing out a new color or naming an animal in a book. At 1.5 yrs old they are actually teaching her, not just keeping her placated during the day Although, with how happy she is when I pick her up every afternoon, I'm sure there's plenty of play time in there, too. They got her on a consistent napping schedule, teach/reinforce baby sign language with her, and always take the time to tell me about cute things she did that day to go along with her 'official' report card.

We were looking for a place for my son to attend a school where he can prepare for the next couple…read moreof years before he starts kindergarten. We saw Brighton Montessori was close to us and decided to call up and see what they were all about. I got one price on the phone when I called, during our sons first week (after all the paperwork was signed) we were charged a different higher price (stating that the amount was calculated wrong) so, ok we let that go and decided to continue on. He was sick 3/4 times within the first 3 months, again ok he was getting used to a new environment. Then summer came and there was at least 2 lice outbreaks in different classrooms. Then the outside playground is under these giant oak trees which provides great shade for the kids but also brought oak mites. My sons legs and arms were covered in oak mite bites all summer even though they said they sprayed the trees to get rid of the mites. The facilities are average and the toys they provide the children to play with are probably as old as the parents of the children are. The school smells a bit musty and was probably converted to a daycare as opposed to being a building built for it. Then came the 3rd price change where our costs were raised again (keep in mind all within a years time) where they also wanted us to back pay the amount difference because it was again calculated incorrectly. This is where it really started to go downhill for my son and our relationship with this "school". My son is on the spectrum and has his challenges when it comes to listening and following directions (but he's also 4 and is learning to deal with his big emotions) at this point it appeared as though people around the facility seemed to have issues with my son being there and anything he did at the school was scrutinized. We were demanded that he was to be picked up early multiple times, one time he had been there for a total of 90 minutes before I was told I need to get him (usually for behaviors that he learned by being there around the other children). He cried every morning before school because he disliked going so much. I make no excuses for his behaviors some of which is his learning but when we were looking for a school we wanted one that would work with him and his faults and try to help reinforce positive behaviors and help us while we could not always be around (which they were more than happy to say that they would and did with kids with his similar profile). Instead the staff gave up on him and chose to expel him giving us 2 weeks to scramble and find new childcare while demanding he be picked up early on his second to last day and then told he was not allowed back on his last scheduled day (leaving us to take time off work to have him covered-this was all within a years time btw). During the last months they would give him timeouts and force him to do things that he did not want to do while not offering up any alternative solutions that worked, which just triggered him more to act out. It appeared to us that the term "school" should be used very loosely as most of the staff does not seem to have any kind of formal educational training as far as I could tell, the school is filled more with caregivers/babysitters as opposed to anyone I would call a teacher. As you can tell if you've read this far, I have a pretty strong opinion of the school and how they treated my son. I do think there are a few people there that truly do care and do not agree with how the business is ran but it is what it is at this point and my son is now out at another school. In summary my family and son's experience with this school is a 1 (bc it could not go lower) if you choose this school for your child care I truly hope they have a better experience than my son did, I just wanted to share my experiences we've had.
