Westwood Church's MDO provides a caring, clean, and fun environment for kids. Both my daughters…read morehave attended MDO here. They offer an extremely flexible schedule. Each session is filled with a variety of different activities -- songs, stories, crafts, outdoor and indoor play, etc. The staff is very professional and kids that need a little help adjusting are given extra hugs and attention. My 2 year old is currently enrolled and she lives it -- she has learned so much. (she also breaks out into spontaneous songs at home -- they do a lot of singing there) Westwood MDO really honors each child and I have no hesitation recommending this program.

Where to start..... If you want the short version, this is the most amazing preschool out there and…read moreANY CHILD would be lucky to get a spot there. I toured more than 10 preschools between Omaha and Phoenix and not one compares to Bluebird, including three other Montessori Preschools. We are on our second child at Bluebird, it simply has been life changing for our family and I would give it 10 stars if I could. Every staff member knows every student and they are all great individuals, not to mention it's the same group as when my son started. In other preschools we tried we've experienced high turnover, and since children thrive on consistency, it really interrupts the learning and experience they are they for. We have the option to have kept the kids home doing a home-school preschool but what Bluebird offers teaching the Social, Emotional, Intellect and Independence could absolutely not be matched. I believe THE WAY THEY TEACH and THE TEAM they have in place is what sets them apart, I can not say enough about the staff. The Director is phenomenal, the owner is there all of the time, maybe every day and the teachers and their assistants are just great at what they do. It's not too big and that's why it's like a little family, a family we are SO GRATEFUL TO BE A PART OF!!!

Parents Beware I've…read morebeen waiting to write this review as directed by Child Protective Services (CPS) for fear of interfering with their investigation. See this picture. This happened at Blue Bird Montessori. There were only 5 kids in the classroom with 2 teachers and they say they have no idea how it happened. Nobody saw or heard anything. This is not a simple bruise or small scratch. This is BIG. During their investigation CPS did find "a toy box with rough edges that *daughter* could have placed her hand in which could have produced those large scratches on her forearm (from her elbow to her wrist)." When you send your child to daycare you expect they'll be cared for. If they would have told us this happened that day we would have been understanding. But to avoid the blame and responsibility by claiming to know nothing is much worse. This shows neglect and it raises the question about what they're hiding. For example, the next day our daughter got a small scratch near her eye and they told us about it. Understandable. Later the same week (January 7, 2021) she had some red marks on her cheek from placing her face on the snow trying to eat it. They also told us about it and filled out an incident report. OK, but this raised another concern. How much was she putting her face in the snow? Were the caretakers watching? Why wasn't she redirected to do something else? January 7 was the last straw and our daughter's final day attending Blue Bird. If your child currently attends Blue Bird please ask yourself if you've seen any signs of neglect or unusual happenings. If you're considering sending your child here just know you may not get the care your child deserves or the full story from them. Look at the picture of my daughter's arm. This happened at Blue Bird Montessori and nobody claims to know how it happened. Is this incompetence, laziness or something else? Is this the care you want your child to receive?

The facility is in EXCELLENT, CLEAN condition. Each room full of natural light and is stocked with many fun and interesting activities and Montessori works. My daughter made several friends there. The owner, Dana, is truly a kind and caring person. She handled some Covid situations, which were unavoidable in any business, with extreme tact and professionalism. She showed clear consideration for all students, parents and teachers. I brought my concerns to her and she listened patiently and responded fairly. I had to make sure and leave a review after seeing that one disgruntled person has made an attempt to disparage Dana-- and for some reason Yelp considers that review the only valid one. I hope that anyone looking into Cornerstone will go visit and see for themselves what a great place it is.

We currently have three children (primary, toddler and infant) enrolled at Cornerstone Montessori and are blessed to be a part of their program. We truly have nothing but positive things to say about the Director, Dana Brannon, and the teaching staff in ALL classrooms. We transitioned from another Montessori in Omaha about 2 years ago; were welcomed with open arms and could not believe all of the things we were missing from the Montessori curriculum in our last program. Dana and Team really pride themselves on teaching our little humans to be the best versions of themselves all while grounding their work in the foundations of Maria Montessori and helping our community/friends around us. A few reasons why we love Cornerstone: -They are a well oiled machine -Communication(s) are clear and frequent -Their Montessori teaching curriculum is top notch -Expectations are firm, but fair so the entire class is prioritized -The level of care and compassion for our kiddos does not go unnoticed -Little/No teacher turnover -The facility is clean, bright, welcoming and organized
