My son went to this school for more than 3 years, starting when he was 2. We had great experience here. Every teacher is so friendly. They all know my son and always greeting to him on the hallway, even after he graduated almost one year ago. The younger age room 2 teachers took so good care of my son. Ms. Griselda was always reading and playing with the kids when I picked up my son in the late afternoon. she always shared with me how my son was eating that specific day and other fun facts about him, before I ask. Still also remember how nice and warm Ms. Cecilia was when I didn't make it for Mother's Day activity. They took a lot of pictures and greeted to me with so much love that day when I picked my son up. All the way up to room 6, Ms. G focus more on good behavior and learning. While strict, she is also a fun teacher. My son likes her so much and came back everyday telling me things that Ms. G shared. He also learned so much things, art, math, geology, etc. The school also host many activities and kids performance through the year, my husband enjoyed this a lot. Only downside is the waiting list is always pretty long, parents need to prepare early if they want to attend this school. read more

My wife, MIL, and I explored 12+ schools around the area, and this one hits home with outstanding results. The school has a over a year waitlist for great reason-- our child has matured and developed beyond our wildest dreams. Walnut International Montessori has been super LIFE CHANGING not just for our child, but also for us parents + the loves ones around us. Our child has learned skills, habits, and attitudes for life. We'll forever be grateful to Ms. Noelle, Carolina, Gie, Sabina, Hailey, Anna, Katie, Sam, Reina, Rabia, Connie, Andrea, Dima, etc. for their patience, dedication, expertise, and wholistic LOVE for the kids, parents, and the community. The staff has ALWAYS been sincere, selfless, and deeply passionate about kids' development. We wish we could stay forever with WIM-"--8 stars, if possible! Stay steadfast & patient to the other parents waiting out there! PS: Naysayers here aka "negatrons" get what they deserve for their lack of deep love, care, involvement, and sense of accountability & ownership to their child's welfare. 99% would stand on a hill about this. read more

We are deeply grateful to WIM for the care and companionship you've given Aiden over the past two and a half years. I still remember when Aiden first joined--he was so little, a bit timid but also curious. Although he couldn't speak English then, thanks to the patient support from all the teachers, he quickly adapted and grew to love this new environment. I want to especially thank Ms. Farida and Ms. Mary for their love and companionship, which helped him adjust to school life so quickly. I'm also grateful to Ms. Mandy and Ms. Rabia for their support in both his studies and daily life. Most importantly, I want to thank Ms. Gie, Ms. Lydia, and Ms. Sabina for guiding and preparing him as he transitions to a new school. Today was Aiden's first day at his new school. He was confident, not afraid at all, and integrated smoothly into his new environment. I am truly thankful for all that WIM has done for my child and our family. His growth and progress would not have been possible without the love and encouragement he received from the WIM family. As a parent, I sincerely thank all the teachers for your care and patience, for empowering him with love, and helping him become the wonderful child he is today. read more

Walnut International Montessori school - Graduation - Preschools Near Me - Walnut, California

My daughter graduated to room 2. She truly loves this class and is treated with so much kindness and love. Ms.Cecilia is ready to communicate with her and guide her upon her arrival, which has helped the morning drop off tremendously. My daughter tells me that she likes her friends and teachers. She is truly learning a lot! Thank you Ms. Cecilia, Ms. Ellie, and Ms.Griselda! I am able to drop off my baby and be confident that she is truly in great hands! read more

My son attended WIM for over 4 years, starting at just 10 months old. During that time, he was placed in nearly every classroom, and we had the privilege of being around amazing teachers who were nurturing, caring, and treated him like family. They were always transparent, communicating promptly about any incidents or situations to ensure us, parents, stayed informed. There's a reason WIM has a long waitlist. The care, structure, and education they provide are unmatched. It was bittersweet when my son graduated from WIM, but he leaves with wonderful memories, advanced academic knowledge, and strong social skills to prepare him for elementary school. We are deeply grateful to Ms. Noelle and Ms. Carolina and all the teachers for their dedication and guidance they poured into my child during his formative years. WIM will always have a special place in our hearts. read more

Two years went by just like that and we just wrapped up our time in Room 5, and I honestly couldn't be happier with the experience our child had. Ms. Emily, Ms. Andrea, and Ms. Hailey have all been so kind, caring, and absolutely amazing throughout. Ms. Emily has been so helpful in guiding our child through everyday learning and even teaching him Spanish! She's super sweet and really great with the kids. Ms. Andrea has had the warmest heart since day one. She always knew when our child needed some extra comfort or a hug, especially during those early days of separation anxiety. Ms. Hailey is loving and patient which really helped our child with all the Montessori work. She was always there to support and encourage him in such a gentle way. All three of them made the process of leaving our kid at school every day so much easier. They were easy to talk to, always responsive to questions or update requests, and just fun to deal with overall. I would 100% trust them with another one of my kids.. and actually, our next little one is starting in December! I also wanted to give another honorable mention to his first classroom Room 2 where it all began. Ms. Griselda, Ms. Cecilia, and Ms. Ellie were nothing short of amazing. They were our intro to early childhood education and made such a great impression on us. To be honest, every staff member is wonderful. I might just make a few more cute little mistakes just so they can attend this school. =D We'll definitely miss everyone for now while we're apart for a few months, but we can't wait to see all these wonderful teachers again soon. It's not goodbye, but we'll see you later. read more

Long over due since my kid attended this school. My kid has been academically advance and find room 3 being under challenged therefore she fights going to class. Often time we would peek through the window and see our kid being left by herself laying by the carpet area without a single person encouraging her to participate. PARENTS PLEASE BEWARE that teachers are also not properly trained. my daughter had her arm dislocated from teachers tugging on her arm. During pick up we saw my daughter very distressed in ms noels office crying and holding her arm. Ms Noel had the audacity to say my daughter was just faking it and there wasn't anything wrong with her. More over ms Noel suggested that she should be assessed for being autistic because 3 year olds should not be able to read books fluently and should not be able memorize the continent on the first day of learning. Later that night my daughter was still crying so we immediately took her to the hospital to find that she had a nurse elbow (dislocated arm due to improper tugging). Another downfall is that they would make the kids feel bad when you come after 5:30pm. Mind you the school opens from 7am-6pm. By 5:15/5:20 they will escort your child to the hall way to sit there and wait for you to pick them up. As kids leave... the teachers would count down the amount of students left. Those kids definitely did not look happy or entertained. Definitely see the shame in their eyes as their parents walks through. Mind you we took our kids out as soon as we found a proper school for them. My daughter was 3.5 and the new school did an assessment on her and put her straight into kindergarten. Ever since, attending the new school, my daughter ran straight into class without fighting us. She would cry as soon as we mention walnut international. read more

We love WIM! My son started here as a toddler and recently "graduated" to a bigger school, but we'll always be thankful for the care and love he got here. The teachers are so warm, patient, and truly care about the kids. He learned so much -from letters and numbers to being kind and confident. The place is always clean, safe, and full of fun activities. We'll forever be grateful for this daycare and the amazing staff! read more

What a year! I definitely was super hesitant initially to send my daughter off to pre-k because she was my first child. But her first day definitely changed my mind immediately. She has learned and grown so much this year and made so many friends! They did teach more than I would typically expect pre-k to learn, but extra knowledge is always good! Ms. Ana and Ms. Sabina are the best! They are both so sweet, kind, and patient. I always had concerns and questions, and they were both so quick to help and answer them. I liked that the school offered full and half days and provided the option of school lunches for a small fee, if parents chose to purchase it. I also liked that there were many photo moments throughout the school year with the different holidays, and Ms. Ana and Ms. Sabina would always send us photos or videos if the students did something new and fun! They also always had pizza parties and little things planned for the holidays, and my daughter loved them all! It definitely was a wonderful and fun year for her! I am so glad that I made the decision to send my pre-schooler, now almost kindergartener here. All of the staff are very friendly and helpful, and the school was always clean. Parking is usually never an issue, unless there is a Christmas show or graduation, then the lot is super packed. However, the lot is huge and shared with tons of boba shops, restaurants, and even a supermarket, so there is almost always parking available. read more

My oldest kid just graduated from this school and my younger child is still going here. We went to a few places in the beginning and this place seemed so friendly because you can tell the kids were really happy. All the staff know the children and are really friendly. It was kind of sad my oldest had to start elementary school since he's been here for so long. They really work with the children and you can talk to the teachers anytime. Waitlist I hear is long so if you're interested I would put your name down asap. read more

Accolades and awards aren't enough to recognize the tremendous work put into each student by the staff at Walnut International Montessori. We sent both our children here and for a time concurrently, and there is not enough words allowed on this review to express my sincere gratitude to which WIM played a role in both our children's development. These gals have the secret sauce. I'll keep it short and simple for my shout out to these fine mentors: Ms. Noelle - You run a tight ship and the school is what it is because of the amazing work and dedication procured under your guidance. Ms. Hailey - The world needs more teachers and people like you. So much empathy, kindness and a bright young mind. Ms. Andrea - You show up everyday, you pour your heart into all the students and you're the kind of role model these young minds deserve. Ms. Emily - You guide the students with passion, compassion and a touch of good old fashion. Nothing escapes you and the children gravitate towards your direction. Ms. Mandy - Your techniques are unparalleled and you enable the students to become their best, each day they are under your care. Ms. Rabia - You've been doing this for so long, it can easily become mundane for most, but not for you. The energy you bring and the dedication to your craft show in the results from any student that is under your supervision. Ms. Farida - You inspire the students with your knowledge, you foster the children's growth with your love and you never once showed a bad day existed. Ms. Reina, Ms. Lucy, Ms. Cecilia, Ms. Gie, Ms. Raquel, Ms. Katie, Ms. Lydia, Ms. Natalie, Ms. Sabina, Ms. Ana, Ms. Mary, Ms. Ellie, Ms. Griselda, Ms. Carolina, Ms. Sufia, Ms. Dima...you ladies all rock! Our family has been fortunate to be a part of this amazing organization and we cherished each moment of our partnership. WIM provides an atmosphere where families can truly become part of a community and the families often times embrace that. I wanted to volunteer for any event, as I felt encouraged to participate and be part of the WIM family. YMMV, so you'll get whatever you want out of your child's education. Schedule a tour and you'll see why our family and other fortunate families decided to roll the dice and trust WIM with building the early developmental foundation of our precious ones. I sound like a commercial but I don't need to sell you on WIM, you'll figure it out yourselves, parents. read more

Walnut international Montessori is one of the best schools I had sent my both my kids to. I'm very glad I made the decision change to switch my kids to come to this school. The teachers all are very sweet and nurturing. They took care of my kids like it's their own. I would recommend anyone of my friends and family thats needs a daycare school to come here. read more

I have/had two kids attending WIM. One already graduated from their preschool to enter kindergarten this year. My other is heading to TK next year so this review is long overdue. When we first moved to the area, there were a few key items we were looking for. That includes a Montessori school that provides daycare, offers extracurricular classes, and how involved teachers are with the kids. The teachers are very accommodating and attentive to the kids. For example, Ms. Emily, Ms. Andrea, and Ms. Hailey, from Room 5, have been amazing in accommodating my child's needs. When my daughter turned 3 and moved into the classroom, she struggled with her emotions and often got upset. When talking to the teachers about the concern, they were very attentive in helping her go through her emotions, and she has become more calm and positive throughout the year. Additionally, she mentioned that she had been bored at school. The teachers have paid her special attention by giving her more activities to do and allowing her to volunteer more frequently in class. She's been a lot happier at school and continues to say she misses school during the weekend. I have that odd child who enjoys doing homework immensely so Ms. Hailey has been extremely helpful in creating tailored activity packets for her to do at home throughout the week even though it's not required. Overall, both my kids flourished there. Although my oldest graduated last year, she enjoys picking up her sister there to say hi to her teachers, Ms. Ana and Ms Sabina, who were her favorite teachers. The education they received there really helped accelerate their learning progress when they jumped into the public schools. Can't say enough good things about them. read more

My daughter just finished her second year here at WIM and I couldn't be any more pleased. She has been in room 4 this year with Ms. Ana and Ms. Sabina and it has been amazing. My daughter loves her teachers and they take such good care of her. She has progressed extremely well, better than I had anticipated. I appreciate all that the teachers do for her and I know she will do well this upcoming school year. read more

It was definitely emotional when my little one left this school to attend kindergarten at a public school. He has definitely developed a strong bond with his room 4 teachers- Ms. Ana, Ms. Sabina, and Ms. Haley. These teachers are phenomenal, and believe me that phenomenal is an understatement for them. To this day, my little one misses his teachers and consistently asks each week to visit them. Ms. Ana is AMAZING! My little one would come home each day telling me what he learned. I was shocked to hear him name flags everywhere we went, recite the names of presidents, and show me how helpful he can be at home with skills he learned from school. Ms. Ana's teaching style really taught my little one to think for himself and she is the reason why he is so smart today! He was beyond prepared for kindergarten, and he is excelling requirements for his grade level. If I could have Ms. Ana as his teacher again, it would be an honor. She is the best! Ms. Sabina is just so wonderful! She is so patient with my little one. She takes the time to speak with my little one whenever he has a rough day and finds a way to turn each situation into a positive. At the end of each day, she will update me on how his day was and is always willing to work with me or provide suggestions on what we can both do for my little one to have a better next day. Ms. Haley is literally the first teacher that my little one sees each day. She welcomes him to school each morning and takes the time to color with my little one. He will come home with super cute pictures he colored and I can see improvement in his coloring each day. Ms. Haley will also sometimes do small projects with him such as making bracelets. I miss those days when he would come home so excited to show me his papers and random projects he made. Ever since he began coloring with Ms. Haley every morning, I've seen his artistic skills grow and she is the one who sparked up his inner artist. To this day, he loves to draw and color at home. read more

A Love Letter to the Montessori School That Helped Raised My Daughter My daughter has been part of this Montessori family since she was just six months old, and now -- as she prepares to graduate from kindergarten -- I can honestly say that choosing this school was one of the best decisions we have ever made. This isn't just a school. It's a place where children are truly seen, heard, and loved. The care, patience, and intentionality the staff puts into every single day is unmatched. From the infant room to the primary classroom, every teacher she's had has nurtured her curiosity, encouraged her independence, and celebrated her growth. Over the years, I've watched my daughter flourish -- not only academically, but emotionally and socially. She's confident, kind, and deeply engaged with the world around her -- and I credit so much of that to the Montessori approach and the incredible team here who lives and breathes it with such heart. They don't just teach children here -- they respect them. They guide them with such grace, giving them the tools to explore, problem-solve, and think for themselves. And through it all, the love they have for these kids is so clear and genuine. As a parent, there's nothing more comforting. It's hard to put into words what this place has meant to us -- but as we near the end of our journey here, I just want to say: Thank you for helping raise our daughter. Thank you for the joy, the patience, the guidance, and the love. We will carry the lessons from this beautiful place with us forever. If you're looking for a Montessori school where your child will be nurtured, challenged, and cherished -- this is it. You've found it. A special thank you to Mrs. Carolina, Mrs. Noel, Miss Andrea, Miss Hailey, Mrs. Sabina, Miss Anna, Mrs. G, miss Katie, Miss Reina, Miss Katie, Miss Lydia.. the list just keeps going! These mentioned made my daughter feel so loved! I can't thank you guys enough for making her experience so special. read more

took a trip down memory lane and visited early today with my kids; little did we know they'd be having open house this evening to also celebrate their montessori's ten-year anniversary. --new management came through just as our second born (also just now turned ten) joined our first born. International School of Montessori in Walnut became our childrens' second home (and extended family) - we entrusted our kids with them as working parents who commuted, BUT more importantly, our kids loved returning every morning and were excited to greet the staff and spend time with their buddies. we had working grandparents at the time - so finding ISM/WIM was a perfect fit for our growing family for childcare - they nurtured and encouraged stimulating child developement and enrichment into their early childhood. Congratulations on your 10-year Anniversary and continued growth (with Learning Tree)! read more

I can't thank Ms. Ana and Ms. Sabina enough for the incredible impact they've had on my child's reading journey! They created a fun, engaging, and supportive learning environment that made all the difference. Both Ms. Ana and Ms. Sabina have a wonderful way of breaking down difficult concepts, helping my child feel confident and excited about reading. The progress my child has made in such a short time is remarkable! Ms. Cecilia, Ms. Griselda and Ms. Ellie have positively impacted my children's time at the school. These teachers truly go above and beyond. They are not just educators--they are mentors who genuinely care about their students' growth and success. I'm so grateful for their dedication to helping my child develop. Ms. Rabia is always so welcoming and it makes it easy to drop off my child in the morning. When my children are having a tough day she really knows how to get them excited to be there. She does arts and crafts for the kids to surprise the parent with their handprint or painting or coloring art! Highly recommend these teachers to any parent looking for quality, thoughtful, and inspiring teachers. read more

Both of my children attended WIM. We have had such a wonderful experience with the staff and teachers. We love Ms. Rabia, Ms. Sufia, and Ms. Mandy! Everyone truly makes your child feel so loved and cared for. It feels like a family environment. My daughters have learned so many skills at Montessori, and it has prepared them for TK. read more

Before WIM, my daughter had been going to family daycares with fewer than 8 students, so it was a bit scary for both me and my 3yo when she started in this bigger preschool. My worry was gone on the first day. Ms. Emily, Ms. Andrea and Ms. Mary were able to help her potty trained in a week. They also patted her to sleep with great patience as she was having serious eczema and could be restless during nap time. After transitioning to Room 3, my daughter grew even more, intellectually and socially. Ms. Mandy, Ms. Sufia, and Ms. Rabia shared her progress from time to time. Ms. Reyna taught her Spanish and helped her with crafts. Each week, she brought home a homework folder. I think it gave us a anchor point to cultivate good studying habits. She shows great interest in doing homework so far, and I think this interest is well preserved and amplified in Room 3. Because I was always among the latest to pick my child up, I had the most opportunities to speak with Ms. Sufia. Ms. Sufia has been so pleasant, patient, and encouraging to students and parents alike. I feel I am becoming a better parent too, thanks to those conversations with Ms. Sufia. My child also made friends in class. I will always remember how they run after each other, laughing. That is pure happiness. Coincidence or not, her eczema was also gone while at WIM. Ms. Connie, Ms. Noelle, Ms. Carolina and Ms. Hailey, along with the teachers and families, made an effort to build a community at WIM. I am glad that we belong. read more

Walnut International Montessori is the best school.I'm so pleased on how they took care of my daugther. Teachers showered her with love respect and compassion.My daugther improved so much in her communication, social and academic levels. I highly recommend this school.Miss G is the best teacher. read more

In my child's academic journey, Room3's Ms. Rabia, Ms. Mandy, Ms. Lucy, and Ms. Andrea, as well as all the other teachers at the school, have made a deep impression on us. We visited many other schools, but ultimately chose this one. Looking back, this decision was absolutely correct. Every teacher is very kind and full of love. They do more than just teach; they offer necessary care and help when children need it. I remember a time when my child couldn't eat, and the teacher patiently helped feed him. When he was scared to sleep at school, the teacher put his bed near the door where there was a bit of light, to soothe his fear. Whenever he was afraid, anxious, or having difficulty, they would lend a hand, helping our child quickly adapt and grow in this new environment. At the same time, I'd like to mention Ms. Carolina and Ms. Hailey at the front desk. They greet every child warmly each day and even remember each child's name. Their friendliness and care make this school feel like a large family, making us feel deeply cared for and loved. Over this year, my child has made evident progress here, becoming more confident and independent. I am deeply grateful to these teachers for their enthusiasm, professionalism, and patience. They have made me realize that choosing this school is one of the best decisions I have ever made. read more

I am writing in hopes that future parents give this school the chance we did. I like to think I did my thorough research after visiting 10 different preschools and Montessori programs before deciding on this one for my son. I was definitely the most anxious and nervous parent enrolling my first born 3 year old but this place has become home away from home for our son. First off, the teachers and the staff are just kind hearted and passionate about their jobs. It is obvious that every teacher is here because they genuinely love the children. Our son is currently enrolled in Room 5 with Ms. Farida, Ms. Emily and Ms. Mary and I could not tell you what life is like without them! There is constant communication with them, whether it would be through the messaging app or even just talking with them before drop off and after pickup. I never felt worried about how my son's day went. Even when we started and we had a hard time with separation at drop off, they would communicate to me that he did eventually stop crying and enjoyed his day. (Which helped me feel better with my separation anxiety! LOL!) Potty training was also really difficult for us but all his teachers stayed patient and really worked with him. I am happy to say he finally got it down 6 months later and they really never lost faith. They did everything to help him with incentives and positive praise to make him feel comfortable. Education has already been really great. My son is who is pretty shy and didn't speak much coming in is now a talking machine. He is now actively reading and really communicating. He has his days of the week, months, 7 continents, alphabet and numbers all down. Not to mention he has learned quite a bit of Chinese and Spanish that is included as part of their curriculum! I am so proud after he was born as an extreme preemie where his doctors anticipated he might have some learning struggles. He really has blossomed and I couldn't be more proud. I am so grateful to have this school as part of his foundation and we can't wait to see more as we continue his education here. read more

We absolutely loved our experience with International School of Montessori. We had a 2yr old and a 3month old when we started and both classes were wonderful. It was great sending kids to a school that truly put the children's priority first. We had a previous bad experience with Montessori of Walnut on Alisu ct. look for my Yelp review there to read my traumatizing experience. International School of Montessori was such a breath of fresh air. Mrs. Noel was so sweet and she paid attention to every child. We stopped going after the pandemic started but we still miss the staff and teachers. Thank you International School of Montessori for making a positive impact on my children's 1st school experience! read more

My daughter just graduated from WIM and we miss it so much! All the teachers are incredibly nice and nurturing. They make every child feel special and know all kids by name and personality. Ms. Gie is such a great teacher and really help kids learn right and wrong and how to eat healthy. Ms. Evelyn is so nurturing and so kind to my daughter she misses her when she switch to another classroom. Ms Rabia and Ms Anna are both super nice. Ms Noelle the principal is very nice and organized. Ms. Caroline is very responsible to all our emails. The enrichment classes are great especially the art class. Ms Jennifer is such a great art teacher and I always wonder how she get the kids to draw so well. Academically, the kids here are learning 1st grade material in TK and kindergarten. Overall a great nurturing place for young kids and my daughter loves all the teachers and made great friends here she is missing dearly! read more

I had to come back to update because we had one more little and the pleasure of experiencing the wonderful Room 1 teachers! Room 1 is the "baby room." It has a very small class size and every teacher is absolutely phenomenal! Of course I was nervous my 11 month old would not go with anyone after being with only me but Ms. Raquel knows all the tricks and bonded with my son instantly! In addition to Ms. Raquel, Ms. Dima, Ms. Lydia, Ms. Natalie, Ms. Marisol, and Ms. Reyna all played such a special role in my son's growth. Each one of these teachers took care of my son as if he was their own. They are all so kind and patient and nurturing with the littles (and us parents)! My son, who is now 2 years old, sings, dances and knows his colors! I am so grateful for our time with these lovely ladies and highly recommend! (Oh, as a bonus, you'll get some amazing photos and artwork!) read more

I am writing this in regards to memories my son is now more eloquently spoken then ever before to actually tell me first hand about his experience .My son attended for 1 year 3.5 to 4.5 . The other day we were going through old photos and he saw this one and got A tears in his eye.I calmly and patiently asked why he was cry he said A few days prior to his birthday he had an accident and the teacher was mad and him and shoved her nail in his hand and told him he was bad. I remember bring this up when I noticed it but my son had a pretty delayed speech impediment.And the teacher said he did it himself .I asked for evidence but they said they didn't record in class only on the playground.So please please I am updating this review to urge all parents don't send your children hear until fully verbal.It breaks my heart to know my son had trauma I never knew of. read more

Walnut International Montessori school - Preschools Near Me - Walnut, California

I highly recommended WIM to all preschool parents. Because both of my kids went to WIM. One was in room 6 and the other one was in room 4. They both were very happy and love their teachers and friends so much. The teachers and staffs here are very friendly and caring. They took very good care of my kids and lots of hugs everyday. And the facility is very clean and well organized. The school is very focus on their academic level they teach lots of things in here. Their schedule is very flexible so you can choose either half day or full day. I think their price is very reasonable too compare to other preschools at the walnut. So go check out their school asap if your kid is in preschool age because they have long waitlist. Anyways thank you to all the WIM teachers and staffs! read more

Choosing the right preschool for your children is always a headache, but I am so glad that we picked WIM preschool after touring five other local preschools. My 3-year old daughter quickly adapted to room#3 class activities just in one week and return home with big smiles every day. Even her worst nap time difficulties got fixed at school. Great appreciation to lead teacher Ms. Mandy, Ms. Lucy, Ms. Andrea and Ms. Rabia for giving so much love and patience to my daughter :D read more

I choose WIM because my friend's son was enrolled for over one year and he loved this school. It is worth to drive almost 20 min to the school every morning. My son has been here for 2 years already. We can feel he grows and changes a lot. More confident to talk and make new friends, learned lots of things at school. Teachers here are so nice! The director Ms. Noelle is so patient and taking very good care of every kids who needs extra help. Ms. Rabia is so caring. Ms. Gie is patient on teaching them not only the numbers and letters, but also eat healthy. Ms. Hailey and Ms. Andrea are full of energy, kids can always have fun with them. Ms. Evelyn is very kind and gentle, my son loves her a lot :). I highly recommend this daycare. read more

My two year old son just started here. We're going on 4 weeks, and he's still struggling with the transition of being away from mom/home. The teachers in room 2 have been extremely patient and caring with him. We had a horrible experience with day care when my son was 6 months old, so I was even nervous about him going back to care that was outside of our immediate family. But, this experience has been a complete 360 degree experience. I'm glad we decided to try again, and I am extremely grateful for the staff here. read more

My daughter has been in Room 3 for almost a year. From the very first day, she never cried once, which showed me how much she loves it here. She happily runs into the classroom every day, greeting all the kids and teachers warmly. All the teachers are very friendly. She loves everyone here. Ms. Mandy is truly professional and has given us a lot of expert advice and guidance. Since our kid started attending, she has grown significantly in many areas. We are very pleased to have chosen such a great school. read more

From Room 1 (infant room) to Room 2 (2-3 years old), Room 3 (3-4 years old) and Room 6 ( Pre-Kindergarten), the teachers at this school have been nothing short of exceptional.

This review is long overdue. My kids have loved every single teacher at this school from the infant room to room 6! The teachers in ROOM 4, Ms. Amynah & Ms. Ana are so wonderful. They make class fun, and they encourage the kids to be independent but are always available to help them when they needed it. Ms. Ana does a wonderful job teaching Spanish to the kids and I appreciate Ms. Amynah always encouraging my kid to talk in and learn Urdu(our native language) - let's add that to the curriculum please :) We as a family love this school. My older kid who is now in public school still loves to visit his teachers - Ms. G was instrumental in his handing writing and working on his focusing skills. Ms. Rabia is heavenly, she is the kindest, sweetest, and most patient. Ms. Amynah has such a fun personality that makes the class fun and also keeps the kids in line. We love her Bollywood dance moves at the school's annual performance. Ms. Ana is the funnest, & sweetest teacher. She's so relatable and I love that she shares little moments about my kids day with me and we both get to laugh about the silly things my kid does. Both room 4 teachers, Ms. Amynah & Ana motivate the kids to eat healthy snacks, finish their lunch, and do their class. Ms. Noelle & Ms. Carolina are phenomenal! They have a welcoming environment and makes us, the parents, feel very comfortable about the care our kids receive here. Ms. Noelle and her staff truly care about the kids and the programs they offer. There is always something new for the kids to try and this school has put in so much work to continue making it better every year. We are so fortunate to have our kids attend this school. My kids and I have had the privilege to interact with many of the teachers here and I wish I could name them all. Ms Reyna, Ms. Maria, Ms. Griselda, Ms. Maggie, Ms. Lucy, Ms. Farida, Ms. Cecilia, Ms. G, Ms. Andrea, Ms. Hayley, and many more have all made a positive impact in our kids lives and we'll forever be grateful to them. This is one of the best schools. read more

As a new mother, my greatest task was finding the best education and care for my daughter. I did research and found this wonderful school. My daughter was enrolled at 6 months old. She is now 4 years old and loves attending school. This school has made such a positive impact into my daughter's life. All the teachers, room 1 through room 5- I can't thank them enough! I am beyond grateful for each and every one of them, for making early childhood education and children's safety their primary focus and for creating an environment where learning and other activities fun! And I'll always be thankful for the peace of mind and comfort given to me while at work. A special thank you to her teachers: Thank you for going above and beyond ! Thank you so much for instilling the spirit of love, patience, generosity, and courage in my baby. You have influenced my daughter's life in so many positive ways! Your tender love does not go unnoticed. read more

Our baby girl has been going to this school ever since she turned 1. We absolutely love room 1 and her teachers. Mrs. Raquel got her acquainted with school life and took great care of her right from the start. As baby girl grew, she slowly moved up and we loved every single teacher she had (Ms. Jhoselyn, Reyna, Dima, and Lydia). The classroom is always clean and orderly. Every teacher paid attention to her and encouraged her to form good habits. We noticed her becoming more capable and independent since going to school and she continues to love going to school every day. They are all very responsive and tries to capture special moments for the parents. We cannot recommend this school enough!! read more

WIM has been a great blessing to our family. My son has been there for two years going on three years. He started there at the age of three years old at the beginning of the pandemic when they first started allowing schools to reopen, private schools anyway. The school is very professional, and I had researched 10 different schools in-person and narrowed them down to the top three. I brought my wife to the top three and she immediately chose this one due to the cleanliness and the smell of Lysol as we visited on our first visit. She really liked the fact that, unlike the other schools, this school is very well secured. You cannot enter the school without having a secret code which you type into an electronic pin pad. Other schools had a gate that anyone could open. In addition to this, there are many Montessori schools that have teachers whom I doubt have actual University. Many people who are known as "teachers" are people who hold certificates and not necessarily degrees. In this particular Montessori school, there are both teachers that have a bachelors or masters degree in teaching and those who have certificates. I was told by an acquaintance, a teacher from my son's toddler days, that some public schools are better than private schools. The reason being who the teachers are. So, my point is that this school has very good teachers that I completely trust with my child. You can see that he grows, learns his manners, and even learns how to eat healthy due to his teacher Mrs. G in room 6. I feel he's growing to be an upstanding young boy at this school. And I especially like all on the other families that I've met who attend this school. The vibe is perfect here. I'm very sad that my son must move on next year. I can go on and on about the good things that we've experienced here. Miss G has been wonderful, miss Zainab was loving, Miss Rabia was so attentive, Miss Carolina is so welcoming, Miss Noel is just full of love and care. There's nothing bad I can say about the staff here. Oh and Miss Evelyn in room 6 is such a caring person. I've had the pleasure of knowing her since I was in elementary school since we were classmates! These are good people all around. read more

Thank you all and I highly recommend this school. read more
