We are really thankful to all the teachers that helped our kid grow and we are going to miss this place alot! Highly recommend this place!

Our daughter is thriving at The Treehouse!

It's been really wonderful seeing her express herself more clearly and forge lasting friendships with her classmates. The teaching staff is warm, friendly and genuinely has the best interests of the kids as their top priority. Their interest in getting to know our entire family and the kindness they show our younger son (who will soon enroll at The Treehouse himself) is truly heartwarming. I cannot recommend The Treehouse enough to families who are looking for a welcoming community and play-based learning environment.

This is a review to the newly opened EAM 98004 location. The school facility is nice, but the…read moreadmissions seem like they are more suitable to work in the marketing industry rather than the school. The teachers show no passions, no love, no empathy, no patients at all. The lead teacher left to do marketing only a few weeks after we joined. The principle of the school left only a few weeks after their grand opening. We withdrew from the school 2 weeks after joined but my kid only went to the school on and off for 4 days because of non stop crying. I saw that my kid held his lovey, crying and chasing the lead teacher around the classroom but the teacher wouldn't even take a look at him, my heart was broken at the time I saw it. One day I saw a little bruise around his arm pit that looks like nail poke. It might be an accident but it might be the teacher grabbed him very rude and her nail poked in. We requested to talk to the principle and the teacher and we were being told that the next week is grand opening, there were 200 colleges to join so they were gonna be busy. We had to schedule the appt next week. The lead teacher, I'm happy that she went to do marketing because she truly has no heart for childern. I would give 0 star if I can because this is truly not a place for babies.

Since my son started at Evergreen we have had nothing less than a great experience. Rj and Shira…read morehave gone above and beyond to support our little family and slowly integrate my son to full time daycare. We had some difficult family health scares that led to us being out of state on and off. Rather than making it a stressful and difficult situation, Rj and Shira were extremely supportive and offered to have us return when we came back to Seattle and were more settled. I look forward to my son returning in August! While I can't speak to other family experiences, I can say that our personal experience at Evergreen has been wonderful.

First of all, the list of items that parents are required to prepare is really quite long. I…read moreunderstand the intention -- things like emergency biscuits for earthquakes are for safety -- but honestly, if a real earthquake happens, shouldn't the school be able to provide such basic emergency supplies? This has created unnecessary stress and burden for parents. Second, I feel it's unreasonable to expect a two-year-old child to manage their own belongings, follow strict rules, and not be allowed to bring a favorite stuffed toy for comfort. My child has told us directly that they don't like this preschool. At this age, children should be playing and being cared for -- not subjected to discipline and education as if they were older. Lastly, I've noticed that the teachers seem to change very frequently. This gives me the impression that the school management might be unstable, which makes parents feel uneasy and less confident about the environment.

My child attended for four days, during which no specific curriculum was arranged. There were no summary reports, and no information on my child's afternoon activities was given. Basic care was also lacking：Diapers were changed only once a day, and this was done solely when my child had a bowel movement. The milk and water we sent remained untouched and were returned in the same condition. Teachers were preoccupied with a single girl and did not comfort other crying children, including my son who made three attempts to communicate his needs but was ignored. 3. Teachers are not Montessori-certified, a fact that was not disclosed to us. 4. There was one day when my child neither ate lunch nor the afternoon snack, returning home hungry. 5. Ultimately, due to inadequate care and attention, my child was diagnosed with severe anxiety by a medical professional. Despite attending for just four days, we're facing a $5,000 charge for two months of tuition. Please exercise caution; the school is very assertive and communication regarding any issues is difficult.

Our son has attended CMS for only a short while although, his confidence, social capabilities, and…read morespeech have advanced since starting! He's naturally bashful so our number one goal when scouting out schools was to find somewhere that offers small class size and kind attentiveness, which we've accomplished here. I enjoy the activities that the school organizes to include parents/ families and the staff is always gracious when I need assistance and/or have questions regarding scheduling, billing, and developmental progress. He is glad to arrive in the mornings and comes home healthy and happy! CMS is truly a gem, providing peace of mind because we know our child is in good hands and thriving when in their care, which is most important to a parent when away from their child.

As a Montessori kid myself and a mom of five who've attended seven schools, I can say without…read morehesitation that Chestnut Montessori is the most impressive and genuinely exceptional school our family has experienced. The teachers are deeply skilled in true Montessori practice--they don't just borrow the "Montessori" label, but actually live out the philosophies and methods. Chestnut Montessori fully embraces and lives out Dr. Maria Montessori's vision and approach, and the impact of that on my boys has been extraordinary. In such a short time, I've seen tremendous growth in their self-confidence, abilities, social skills, and overall development. I was hesitant starting the boys in school at a young age, but Chestnut Montessori earned our family's trust in the first interaction at the tour (when we left the tour, before my husband could buckle his seat belt he looked at me and said, "this is it. Cancel all the other tours.") The teachers' expertise, loving care, and genuine investment in their students shine through every single day--from drop-off and pickup, to communication with the administration, to the photos shared throughout the day, and the thoughtful extra-curricular events. I'm beyond grateful for CMS and so thankful to have found a school that truly supports my children in becoming exactly who they're meant to be. We'll hope to be here for the long haul!

We had a very disappointing experience at Living Montessori and would not recommend this school to…read moreparents in the area. The school enforces a very strict 9:00 a.m. arrival policy--if you are even one minute late, your child is not allowed to enter. This policy was never clearly communicated during the tour, so parents should read the contract very carefully. Even for doctor's appointments, they expect everything to be completed before 9:30 a.m. and require advance notice. For children under four, who frequently get sick, this lack of flexibility is unreasonable and unrealistic. The extracurricular programs were also a waste of time and money. My son was enrolled in soccer classes (ages 8-10), and we never received any weekly updates, photos, or videos. Despite repeatedly asking for feedback, we were never informed about how our son was doing in these classes. The administration was another major issue. Our interactions with Aliya were extremely frustrating. The school is holding $3,600 of our money and refusing to either refund it or apply it toward our son's tuition. We had to delay our younger son's start date for personal reasons, and Aliya confirmed via email that the $3,600 could be used whenever our son started. They have since changed their stance and are now refusing to honor that agreement. Please be very cautious before committing to this school, as they seem to find every possible opportunity to keep parents' money. We moved our elder child out within a few months, and he is doing significantly better at a different Montessori school.

Highly unprofessional and misleading conduct. My son was admitted to the center, and I paid a…read moredeposit of over USD 3600 to secure the spot. The original start date was set for the end of the year. When my plans changed, I contacted the center to request a revised start date. I was explicitly assured, both over email and verbally, that this would be accommodated and that the deposit would be carried over. The center has now reversed this position and is not honoring those commitments. They required us to repeat the tour, during which the staff member conducting it was dismissive and disrespectful. They are also requesting an additional assessment. When I asked whether the deposit would be refunded if the assessment was unsuccessful, they explicitly refused. Withholding such a significant amount of money under these circumstances is unacceptable and raises serious concerns about their business practices. This reflects poor ethics, lack of transparency, and unprofessional handling of families. Commitments made in writing and verbally were not upheld.
