Our daughter has been at this Montessori Prep school since she was 3 years old, she is now 11. It…read moreis so much more than a school, its a family. Paulene (the director) and all the women who teach the children, not only give them an excellent start in education with a challenging curriculum, but also teaches them life and social skills. Our son went to Montessori Prep, when he was younger, now he's 18 and graduating with honors, and going to attend Law School at UF. I give much credit to Montessori, helping him to develop good academic habits, and being in a loving environment, that let him be free to create and be himself. Our daughter's Standford testing results are in the middle and high school levels, and she's in 5th grade. Montessori teaches them be confident in who they are, and I know in my heart, any of the teachers would protect my child with their life and being a mom, the peace of mind I have when I drop her off everyday knowing that she is safe, is priceless. I am truly going to miss this school, when our daughter goes to 6th grade. I want to thank Paulene, Angel, Sandy, Gurpreet, Marisol, Suzette, Ingrid, Madi, Rosario, Amallia, Patricia and all the others who have treated my children as their own. I am forever grateful to all of you. Danielle Comas Parent at Montessori Prep School of Ocala

The cameras in classrooms do not record. My son can be a lil hard to deal with sometimes but no Teacher should be rough enough to make a child bleed. He went there for 4 years and never had any other serious problems. My best friend's son also complained that the same teacher pinched him and he is far from a problem child. So question your kids and listen to them if they go here. Scars in the photo have me concerned she had abused my child before. Please just be aware.

This daycare has been nothing short of amazing to the care they have provided to my child over the course of 3+ years. yes they have their flaws, but what daycare doesn't? when my daughter was much younger she was sent home over the course of a few days with diaper rash and dried boogers on her nose but what daycare hasn't had this happen? they do try their best and the ones that don't or haven't are luckily no longer employed with them hence why some parents have had bad experiences when it comes to the care their child received. their turnover is bad yes, but I've heard that it is because of how the company treats their employees or maybe it's also because of the employees consistently neglecting the children. it can be various things as to why their turnover is bad but the staff and director they have now are FABULOUS! and my daughter always comes home talking about the great day that she had and always looks forward to the next and to me that is all that matters is that my child comes home happy!
