Ms. Jasmin (Onsite Director) is WONDERFUL - so kind, understanding, and present. The entire staff is amazing - you can tell everyone is there for the right reasons and it shows.

When the beginning of a stomach bug outbreak took place, as a father, I would want to know there is something going on at the site, even when my child is not there. Despite having my child one as of the first to catch the stomach bug, there was no communication from Executive Directors informing parents at all and thus seemingly encouraging parents to get their kids sick and take it home with them. They claimed to have put up signs around the site but what good does that do? Afterwards, I offered to help strategize ways to improve communication; however, the idea was completely shrugged off and any involvement was denied. Otherwise, new-born room was great.

This is our first year at Tree of Life, and we truly believe it is a "diamond in the rough." Not…read moreonly is the school more affordable than most early childcare providers (and certainly less costly than any other Montessori programs in the area which are known to be quite expensive), but the quality of education is top notch. Prior to enrolling here, our son attended a language immersion school. The first year, he had an amazing teacher and made great progress socially and academically. The next two years, however, he began to regress due to high teacher turnover, inconsistent instruction, and a 13:1 student-teacher ratio that wasn't conducive to much individualized attention. The 6:1 class size at Tree of Life has allowed my son to get lots of 1:1 time with his teacher. In addition, the mixed-age classroom, which is a staple of Montessori education, has provided my son with the chance to learn from older students. Moreover, the student-led, choice-based instructional approach, which is also a key feature in Montessori classrooms, has provided my son with ample opportunity to explore his interests while developing independence, confidence, fine motor skills, and intellectual curiosity. A mathematician and Montessori certified educator, Marla understands the stages of child development, and the value of high rigor and hands-on kinesthetic learning. Her classroom management style is firm but fair, and her guidance has informed some of the ways my wife and I support our son at home. Marla has a genuine appreciation for multi-cultural education. She regularly teaches about other cultural traditions like Holi, Kwanzaa, and the Chinese New Year, and invites special guests (including parents) to enrich the classroom experience by sharing their unique talents and traditions. Marla sends an update (both written and via FB group) on what was taught each week and what is forthcoming, is very responsive to email and text messages, and takes multiple measures to ensure her classroom is clean and safe (i.e., locked door, classroom cameras, optional masking, temperature checks, etc.) If an affordable Montessori education, in a small, in-home setting, with a highly skilled and caring teacher is an ideal learning environment for your child; and if an 8:30-4pm pickup works with your schedule, I'd HIGHLY RECOMMEND Tree of Life Montessori. It's a wonderful place!

I picked this school mainly because it was so close to my work, but ended up loving the school. Marla is very serious about teaching, very responsible, and dependable and I can feel very comfortable leaving my daughter every morning. She has only up to 6 kids in her classroom and each child gets plenty of her attention. Only thing I did not like much about was the long nap time...she had a difficult time sleeping at night. A few years after we moved out of Atlanta, we visited the school because I had a conference. She welcomed my daughter for the week that I was staying in Atlanta and she loved being back in the school. The school has such a welcoming, warm environment and this school is my gold standard for preschools.

They have some events that make it fun, like Grandparent's Day, etc. The tuition is okay given the times you can drop off the kids. Cons: You get what you pay for. It's not very clean. My child was sick very often. When I pick them up, there would always be another child with a runny nose, like a major dripping runny nose. Of course, my kid would end up getting sick that week. The administration isn't truthful. The director overlooks parental concerns and makes poor staffing choices. When she replies to your email, she would say anything to get you off her case, but there won't be any change. For example, for a classroom of toddlers, they choose an elderly teacher who can't remember the names of the students. My child was potty trained, but once this teacher began teaching, he started to regress. Additionally, he was assaulted twice consecutively by the same student. I brought up my concerns due to fear my child would get hurt again. I had the options of taking my child away from this class or roll the dice and see if he gets hurt again. Nothing was done for the offending parent. I read the previous review on yelp before I chose this school and thought nah no way, this is a church they must be good and honest people. They are NOT. I affirm this place isn't great. If you really have to, then maybe go here. Otherwise, if you can save more for another place, in the long run, don't go here. Save yourself the headaches and troubles. Seriously. Amid kids issues having daycare issues isn't what you want.

Everyone one here- from administrators, teachers and even the chef- is amazing. My children and I are always greeted with a smile. They come home happy, well fed, and its clear that they are in safe and loving hands while I am away at work. My daughter has learned so much while she has been at this school and she is so confident. This school is expensive, but there is a sibling discount. You definitely get what you pay for with daycare and my peace of mind that my children are in good hands is well worth the cost.
