My favorite part of this school is seeing the different age groups working with and learning from each other. I can feel at ease knowing my active son has flexibility where he does his work. Because of this, I saw his love for learning grow quickly. He started wanting to sound out words and learning place value at age 3. The community at this school is unlike any other - we're diverse in our backgrounds but all completely appreciate the independence and unity us and our children all feel at this school. Ms. Maria goes above and beyond for her students and families. The biggest blessing we've experienced for our kids' education is hands down, Montessori Villa.

The teachers hold steady to Maria Montessori's philosophy. All three of my children thrived there.read more

My son started attending Hope Montessori in January 2025, when he had just turned two. From day…read moreone, we felt welcomed and supported. The campus is absolutely beautiful -- surrounded by pine trees, calm, and clean. It's a fully gated property with video cameras, so I always feel confident that my child is safe. Honestly, I wish I could stay there myself all day -- it's that peaceful! The teachers -- Ms. Nada, Ms. Dixie, and Mariah -- are truly amazing. They quickly became our friends. Every single day, they take the time to share how my son is doing. He came from another country, but now he's learning English so fast -- he can count, name colors, and even sings songs at home that he picked up at school. One of my favorite moments is every morning: as soon as we arrive, my son lets go of my hand and runs straight to his friends -- completely forgetting about me. To me, that's the best sign of a truly great place for mu child.

My daughter has loved getting to learn about the cultural experiences of all different people around the world, and they just recently had people from Texas Snakes bring in some snakes, letting the children interact and learn all about reptiles. I don't have a single bad thing to say about the Director Caitlin and her assistant Monika, they have helped me with any and all concerns, questions, etc. I have had so far.

The school provided all of their diapers when hey were toddlers and babies and have provided all of the food since they've been eating.

This place is terrible.

In the infant room babies are left to cry it out (even two months olds) and in the toddler room kids are forced to become independent before they are ready. Montessori is all about following the child but there they want a 18 months old to be able to dress themselves and leave them to cry out of frustration for up to an hour. I have picked my daughter up in soiled diapers several times and In numerous occasions the diapers leaked through her pants. If you have special dietary restrictions be sure that they will be ignored even if you specifically write them out. My vegan daughter got dairy and eggs for 2 months until I finally found out about it. They will put children in danger. They put my daughter into an adult sized chair during a meltdown and let her fall off TWICE and did not even repay the unused tuition for that month when I finally took her out of the school. Tried to meet with them for a month but it never ended up coming to a meeting since the owner insisted that 2 other employees should be part of the meeting which shows that she doesn't even truly care about the situation. Stay away from this place if you care about your child's wellbeing.

The office called parents saying he had a little scratch. Parents arrived to pick him up and this was his forehead, with various other scratch on side of face, ear area. They seem to minimize things, and when asked what happened, parents were told he attacked a youth and the youth "defended himself." Sharing 3 teachers were in the room during the incident. I personally don't feel they are adequately experienced with educating and supporting families with children that have not fully developed their communication skills. I really thought highly of the center, however, they fail to protect, educate, and mainstream children. Early last year he was hit by a doorknob by teacher, and she could be seen in camera shoving him away from her. Yet we gave them another chance. I no longer recommend this daycare for children that are under 4, until they are fully able to communicate to parents about their day.

I only have experience with the infant room. I would steer clear of this facility. Julie was the…read moreonly good thing about this place. They had high turnover while my baby attended. I never knew who was going to be there. The sheet they log everything on was incorrect almost every day even after speaking with the teachers and staff multiple times. I asked to watch the cameras on a certain day because the way the sheet was written I was worried my baby got someone else's bottle. Well their camera was down at the time I needed to see. And they constantly try to dismiss any of my concerns saying oh it's a translation issue as the teachers don't speak/understand English very well... Or no that didn't happen it's fine. A teacher wore a ton of perfume and my baby came home with very red cheeks all the time. I asked about it and they said they're allowed to wear perfume and the director was rude when I asked about it. I would think the infant room would be no perfume/lotions because of their sensitive skin and they're being held a lot. (Side note the original director is the reason we chose this facility. New one is not the best.) My child was fed things I did not send without asking me and I only found out about it in passing. They tried to teach my baby to hold their bottle on their own and had them propped up and when I walk in all I hear is them sucking air. I made it clear this was not okay yet it happened multiple times since. A few times I went to pick up and my baby is in an exersaucer with a tablet in front of them while the afternoon teacher cleans...very much not okay. One time they were even doing makeup while he watched the tablet... seriously at 6 months old? I cannot even tell you how often my baby got sick at this facility. I know daycare babies get sick but I was called SO many times to leave work because he was sick again. Our pediatrician told us we need to find a new daycare as they probably don't clean properly. I have friends with babies in daycare and they've been sick but not even half as much as my baby was. They put my baby in a random onsie with nothing else on a few times because they said I didn't have anymore change of clothes.. I showed them the bag with his name on it with 5 changes of clothes in their bin. That room is freezing, not okay. I could go on and on. Overall my husband and I hated this daycare experience and worked it out to where I could stay home. Baby hasn't been sick since and is much happier overall.

By the Montessori method, children have a curriculum developed and guided by their natural…read moreinterests and what they choose to work with each day - BUT, I never had any updates or information about what my son was learning about or how he was progressing. There was NO calendar stating anything relating to curriculum or even themes that may be involved with. Teachers seem annoyed if you try to talk to them. Most of the time, there is nobody at front desk that you can speak with either. Most of the "Assistant Teachers" were very young, seemed inexperienced, and aloof. I had a teacher assistant tell me my son refused to help clean up - so she "took him into the baby room, so he could be a baby". I then went to the director to ask about this, and she denied they would ever reprimand a child in that way. I told her several times that an assistant teacher just told me this - and she just looked at me perplexed. No apology or explanation was ever offered and so this was his last day to attend Springwood. (The reason why I found this whole situation a bit weird - is that the assistants only speak to you if spoken to - and she wasn't going to tell me he was reprimanded until I asked how his afternoon was that day). My son was often dirty when I would come pick him up (VERY dirty face and hands). Literally - dirt smeared on his face. I know kids get dirty but - we all know that washing hands is important to help fight germs and colds. He often seemed very thirsty (and I won't go into the long story of the response I got from his teacher when I asked if she could ask him to drink a bit more fluids). I support the idea of discovery through independent play, but there also needs a balance of thoughtfulness and care - not just in the materials to work with in the classroom. I want to be clear that I like Montessori, and I think this school just has some issues that needs to be worked on. (My son was 3 years old while attending this school, and attended for about 5 months)

It's been a…read morecouple of years since we left the school, but the adverse experiences endured continue to affect us today. It is not diverse at the upper elementary level and beyond. That would not be a problem, except racial slurs by students in the school setting are not met with any repercussions. There is no formal policy on bullying, so bullies keep on doing what they want. Favoritism and nepotism seems to be acceptable. The academics are poor. They took a GT student and just tanked her learning. And finally, there is dishonesty at the highest level of the school when it comes to providing information to parents.

Once you step inside, you'll see the environment is beautiful, welcoming, and clearly designed with children in mind. One of its advantages is that children aren't confined to the same classroom all day. They have access to different spaces where they can explore, play, and learn, and they also spend time with children of different ages, which helps them develop socially. The teachers are exceptional (shout out to Miss Olga, Miss B, Mis Cha Cha, Miss Renee, Mis Naiely...). Every day they come up with thoughtful, creative activities that make learning fun and keep the children engaged. You can tell how much time, dedication, and love goes into everything they do. Our son started here without speaking a single word of English. Thanks to the patience, kindness, and encouragement of his teachers, he not only learned the language but also felt safe, happy, and at home from day one. He was genuinely excited to go to school every morning, and as parents, that's the greatest recommendation we can give. Now he is really sad to go. Thank you Miss Laura for everything you've done for our kid! Now its time to go to big kids school :)
