The staff consistently demonstrate professionalism, kindness, and a passion for education. Communication with parents is excellent, and we have always felt welcomed, informed, and valued as part of the school community. The Montessori approach has helped our children develop confidence, independence, and a love of learning that continues beyond the classroom.

My family had a great experience at BHM. We had two children enrolled, one in the toddler class and…read moreone in Pre-K. The Montessori approach at this school is nicely implemented, with a good balance of structure and play integrated throughout the day. There is a strong academic foundation while still allowing children the freedom to explore their creativity, build independence, and develop a genuine love of learning. The directors, teachers and staff are attentive and highly invested in each child's growth and development. In addition to academics, BHM offers an impressive variety of extracurricular opportunities, including sports, dance, art (and many more), which enrich the overall experience. Their curriculum also does a wonderful job fostering multicultural awareness which we really appreciated. In addition, the facilities and play spaces were consistently clean, well maintained and organized, which gave us great peace of mind every day. We saw tremendous growth in both of our children in the time they spent at BHM. They felt happy, supported and excited to learn every day. We would highly recommend BHM to any family looking for a well-rounded Montessori program.

I cannot say enough things about this school. I am probably…read morethe most over protective, worrier of a mom you have met. To the point that, I wasn't sure if I was going to send my daughter to pre-school before Kindergarten. That was until I learned about Tree of Life and met the owner Kelley, If you are looking for a place where you feel comfortable and happy every day to send your child to school, this is the school for you. This was my daughter's first experience being away from me and after only one day going School she fell in love with it. My daughter woke up every morning excited to go to school and sad to leave. She would count down the days when school was closed and ask me to wake her up early when the break was over. While my daughter quickly learned how to spell her name and read, in my opinion, what I appreciated the most was the life skills she gained. My daughter was taught kindness, honesty, giving back to the less fortunate and how important it is to respect all cultures and people. The owner Kelley is truly a gift. She has created a family dynamic on campus that is felt in every class. She is present on campus, connected with all parents and students and she staffs her school with the most amazing group of educators that truly love your children as their own. I feel extremely grateful and blessed to have gotten the opportunity to send my daughter to Tree of Life. It has set my daughter up for success for the rest of her life.

I started my daughter in Preschool at Harper at 3.5. She had not been to school before, and I was…read moresuper nervous about this transition for her. She started with Ms Mamta, who was amazing with the transition. She was so patient and accommodating to all of her big feelings. She very quickly started loving school. She is currently in Ms Swarnali's class, and she has truly blossomed, she is truly exceptional! From the very beginning, Ms. Swarnali has created a warm, nurturing environment where she has felt safe, encouraged, and excited to learn. Ms. Swarnali consistently uses positive reinforcement to guide and motivate her students. Her approach has helped my daughter grow not only academically, but also emotionally. I've seen tremendous improvements in her confidence and the way she interacts with others -- changes that I credit directly to Ms. Swarnali's support and teaching style. It is clear that Ms. Swarnali is deeply committed to the well-being and development of her students. We feel incredibly fortunate to have had her as part of my daughters early learning journey.

The values and life skills she's taught our son have laid a strong foundation that will stay with him for years to come. She's had such a lasting impact on our son. We can't wait to send our younger one to her and see him thrive the same way.

All of the teachers are very kind, caring, and experienced. They love what they do which is hard to come by. The school has a beautiful and welcoming layout. Each classroom is clean and organized. The playground is amazing. The school schedule and curriculum is very enriching and well planned. The school was also very accommodating to a student that I worked with. She made tremendous progress during her time at TLC. The owners Kristi and Lynn are amazing women as well as all of their staff. Some of the teachers that helped my client progress so much were: Chelsea, Cindy, Rinku, Daisy, and Vicki. They were all phenomenal. Many of the other staff were also so kind and sweet like Karen, Victoria, Paige, and Elena. They always said hello and greeted my student and I with a smile.

Lynn, Kristi, Vicki, Elena, and every teacher we interacted with was always kind and supportive, with our kids' best interest at heart. We're still in touch, 5 years later! Both of our children attended, and my niece, and from day one it felt like a second home for them. The teachers are incredibly caring, attentive, and patient--they really take the time to get to know each child and celebrate their unique personalities. Our kids were always excited to go to school, and it was wonderful to watch them grow in confidence, kindness, and curiosity. The learning activities are creative and engaging, mixing play with meaningful lessons that helped prepare them for kindergarten while still letting them be kids. As parents, we were especially grateful for the open communication and the genuine love the staff shows for their students. It's clear that the whole team puts their heart into creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can thrive. The facility is beautiful, btw! We can't recommend TLC highly enough. Our kids felt happy and supported every day, and we feel so lucky to have found such a special place for their early years.

My son loved Dayspring so much, it was hard to get him to leave at the end of each day. :) We will surely miss Dayspring, as they became like family.

Our 4 year old son started at LAPMS last summer and the transition was extremely smooth for him…read more He had gone to another montessori school before we moved to Danville so he adjusted well due to this but his three teachers at LAPMS were all so warm, loving, and caring. Academically, they had them work on a simple book report every week in order to start introducing the concept of homework to them, they also used Kindergarten-level math books so my son was already doing addition and subtraction problems in the 12s and 13s by the end of the year. Additionally, my son's reading skills drastically improved while at LAPMS due to the teachers adjusting the reading materials and worksheets to match each child's different reading level. Now, my son has graduated from LAPMS and attends Kindergarten at one of the SRVUSD elementary schools and he whips through the homework assignments and continues to excel in reading. I truly feel that my son's teachers set him up for success for Kindergarten and I am truly grateful for the school. When my son recently ran into his former LAPMS teacher, the teacher embraced my son and was so genuinely happy to see him again. You could just see how much they care about each child. We now have our 2 year old enrolled at LAPMS and after about a month of some tears and a transitioning phase, he also now loves going to school. His 3 teachers also are always so loving, extremely patient and warm individuals. I have never seen them lose their patience even with a room full of toddlers! I also have asked them to adjust our son's napping schedule and they have always been very accommodating and willing to make changes as needed. They also diligently provide updates on diaper changes, nap times and photos of activities throughout the day. Something I also noticed about the LAPMS staff is that I see teachers from other classrooms help in other classrooms as needed even if it's just for a short amount of time and they always do it with a smile. I feel this shows the camaraderie between the staff where they have the same goal to support and care for all students at LAPMS and they do it as a united team. I usually don't post reviews on Yelp but felt compelled to do so for LAPMS because of the very positive experience we've had. Thank you LAPMS Danville staff!

I had the chance to visit their classroom this morning during Parent Observation Week, and it was such a meaningful experience. Watching the children engaged in their Montessori work firsthand really highlighted how thoughtfully the environment is prepared. The classroom felt calm, organized, and full of purpose, and it was wonderful to see how much independence and confidence the children are encouraged to develop. A big thank you to Ms. Esra and the entire team at LAPMS. Your patience, dedication, and care truly make a lasting impact. We're so grateful!

The administration is well-organized and runs the school very well. One of the things we appreciate most is the emphasis on early learning. Even at a young age, there's a lot of focus on activities that support development: reading, singing, social interaction, or art. The class sizes are small, so he gets a lot of individual attention, which we've really valued. We love the daily updates through their app. It's great to get photos and notes throughout the day, so we know what he's doing and how he's doing. The communication from the staff is consistent and helps us feel connected even when we're not with him. Now that he's eating solid foods, he's transitioned to the meals provided by the school, and we've been pleased with the quality. They're healthy, age-appropriate, and varied. Nap times are also handled well, with comfortable cots and a consistent routine. Overall, we've had a very positive experience at Primrose. We feel confident in the care and education our son is receiving, and we're planning to keep him there until he heads off to kindergarten.
