The staff is experienced, caring, and dedicated -- many teachers have been there for years, which creates a stable and loving environment for the kids. My child loves going to school and has grown so much academically and socially. The center balances structured learning with fun activities that keep the kids engaged and excited. Their hours are very accommodating for working families, and the pricing is extremely fair for the high level of care and education they offer. Highly recommend to any parent looking for dependable, high-quality childcare.

I have been to Liberty Montessori only a few times to take or pick up my little granddaughter but…read moreas a retired classroom teacher I would definitely recommend it for any preschool age child. The staff is very friendly and very attentive to the children. The children do art projects which are displayed on the walls and in the halls. There are always ongoing learning activities in the classrooms, the children are busy with Puzzles, blocks, etc. We are amazing at the social skills these young children are acquiring. Our little granddaughter loves attending Liberty Montessori every day. She also enjoys the daily lunches that are provided. This is a school that should be considered if you have a preschooler in your family.

My child has attended this day care for seven months (since he was 3 months old). During this time…read morehe as been the victim of three separate accidents while in the care of this facility. He was allowed to roll backwards and hit his head on the wooden shelving, he was allowed to stand and fall and hit his face on the same wooden shelving and an older child was allowed to walk up to him and scratch his face in several places. In addition, he has contracted the hand, foot and mouth virus twice because they do not separate the carrier children once it is discovered that a child is sick. Instead, their protocol is to call the sick child's parents to pick them up asap, but then they leave them in the classroom with the other children until the sick child's parents arrive. I have also witnessed the infants sharing toys (from one mouth to the next) without first cleaning the toy. After voicing my concerns to the director, especially about not separating the kids sick enough to be sent home from the children who are well I received the response that they try to separate them as much as possible, but they don't have the staff to completely isolate them due to other responsibilities and tasks that need to be performed. What is more important than the health and safety of the children? I could never recommend this daycare to anyone in its current state.

I am fully aware that our world is filled with unkindness and harsh treatment. As an adult, I have…read morewitnessed its flaws, but as a parent, I make every effort to shield my children from it. Tragically, my 5 and 8-year-old children experienced a traumatic incident that should never have happened in daycare. Morgan, a white administrator at the school, has a white son. He told my black son that he doesn't like brown people. I wasn't informed immediately, and the matter was downplayed once I did find out. Morgan denied knowing where her son heard that and claimed he has family members of color. However, it's important to remember that having family members of color doesn't shield anyone from the influences they encounter. The foundation of this is at home. The school failed to take this matter seriously. The child should have been expelled immediately, but unfortunately, that didn't happen. As a mother, I did my best to handle the situation and educate my children about the harsh realities of life. When my children began returning home each day with new problems, and the staff expressed their confusion about the "tension" between families, I was deeply disappointed. This is particularly concerning, given that the daycare is owned by people of color. After two years of attending this daycare, I've come to realize that we were merely another statistic, with our well-being seemingly disregarded. Every daycare has its advantages and disadvantages, and here are mine: Cons: The daycare has a high turnover rate, poor communication between administrators, teachers, and parents, and inconsistent incident reports. Pros: Some teachers genuinely care about the children, the location was convenient for my family, and they were flexible when my income was temporarily reduced. However, the negatives far outweigh the positives, and I feel compelled to share this honest assessment.

I highly recommend this daycare. Our children have benefited from the Montessori philosophy that is…read morepracticed here, from interaction with older kids to sensory bins to creative play toys.

We are really happy with this daycare!

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.

I entrust with them the care of my child. Really, that should be enough to tell any prospective…read moreclient that Creative World in Liberty is a place you can trust. I drive my youngest daughter there, kiss her goodbye, and leave. I've reviewed nearly a hundred businesses and not a single one of them carried the burden that Creative World carries. Not only am I ok with them taking care of my princess, I'm happy about it. I'm no newbie at this kid thing; my oldest was born in 1990, middle in 1999 and my youngest in 2008. My middle and youngest both went to Creative World in Liberty so I've had great feelings about them oh, since about 2004. There's the obvious; the place is very clean (kinda defies logic really, that everyday, a hundred or so kids are trying to trash the place), the teachers are kind, gentle, caring, and exceptionally talented. These are career caregivers, there are no amateurs here. And then there's the better than probably average; the kids are served hot meals (and they even cater to my daughter who's a vegetarian), they have a central area with copious amounts of learning stations. Learning is done in every form from digital games to scrap paper and crayons ( a seemingly endless supply of refrigerator fodder). There are normal hiccups here and there. There are kids that get sick and come precariously close to getting everyone else sick, the computer sign in system leaves a lot to be desired (but it does it's job), but for every other part, I don't have to worry that my daughter is well taken care of and really, that's worth more than any place could ever reasonably charge.

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.
