Be aware- THEY DO NOT HAVE WEEKEND OR AFTER HOURS CARE LIKE THEY ADVERTISE. On your tour, note the green snot dripping out of every child's nose. Caretakers do not wipe noses, sanitize hands or sanitize the toys and surfaces in the room. Hand foot and mouth, lice, and respiratory infections are running rampant at this center due to poor sanitation standards. The building has been next to a lake for over twenty years and is likely riddled with mold. However, the holiday decorations seem to be of the most importance. You will often see your child's teacher scraping paint off the windows, rather than engaging with your child. Try and see past the glitz and glamour and watch for signs of neglect. Request without notice to watch your child's potential classroom, or current room, on the video cameras available to the staff only. They charge for Christmas and New Years weeks when they are closed. They close an average two days per month and charge you for them leaving you without care for your child. Other additional charges: Late payment fee, missed punch fee, late pickup fee, staff development days (tuition collected, school closed), activity fees, "donations" that are charged to your account for their tax deductions. Teachers arrive late, do not show up at all, or are called off to condense rooms together to save on payroll. Children are often not with "their" teacher and ratios exceed the legal limits. Employee cards and parent punches are later adjusted by staff to appear within the law. I was late to work a dozen times to work because there was not adequate care at drop off in the mornings. Just an empty room. I requested a credit on my child's account and was screamed at on speaker phone in the office at drop off by the owner Angelina Anton, far from an Angel, "no, and your family is no longer a fit for our center, you need to leave now". That's how they handled opportunities to improve, they remove them. If you're looking for a Christ centered Daycare, this is not it. They play Christian music and lie to your face. These folks are doing dark work. ..they advertise a ratio of 1:4 for toddlers and most days the ratio is 1:12 or more! Twelve toddlers for one person to feed, change diapers, supervise on a playground, and give individual attention to. Most teachers are there because they receive free or discounted care for their own children, who are prioritized whilst paying children are neglected. At both locations my child was neglected for an entire eight hour day, as an infant, and a toddler. No diaper change, no food, no water. The staff, including both Directors and assistant directors take zero accountability for their mistakes, because they don't want to be sued. The first week my infant was at this center, he was not strapped into his high chair and fell down three feet on to his head. I was not called, he was not taken to urgent care for possible brain bleed. Pediatrician confirmed he was injured, school changed their story multiple times to avoid accountability. This place is great if you don't care about your child's well-being. The adults who attended this center as a child twenty years ago, refuse to enroll their own children here. That speaks volumes.

As a mom who did not want to be away from my baby but has a very demanding work from home job, this was the perfect solution. Miss Rhonda, Mavanny, Yaz, and Marren are the absolute best!

As a nursing mom, I am then able to feed my little one as needed. It is the best of both worlds. Very affordable without compromising quality of care. You won't be disappointed! If I could give them more than 5 stars I would!

The teachers greet the children with excitement and genuinely seem happy to be there. It means so much to see them blow my child a kiss and tell her they love her--it shows how much they truly care. My child is always happy to go to school, which says a lot about the environment they've created. ABC also puts a lot of effort into their events and celebrations--they never skimp out on festivities. Everything is beautifully decorated. Parents are always welcomed and encouraged to join, which helps create a strong sense of community between families and staff. Another thing that stands out is how much they invest in their staff culture. Even on staff development days, the team seems positive and enthusiastic, and that energy carries over into how they care for the children. Overall, ABC is a loving and supportive place, and I'm very grateful my child gets to be part of it.

The entire front office and management is caring, attentive, and professional. I truly feel like they treat each child as their own. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a place where their child will be well cared for, supported, and encouraged to thrive.

The teachers are incredibly kind, patient, and truly passionate about what they do. Our son has grown so much in confidence, independence, and curiosity since starting here. The Montessori approach has helped him develop at his own pace, and it's clear that he's not just learning -- he's loving to learn. The environment is calm, nurturing, and beautifully organized. We especially appreciate the focus on life skills and respectful communication. Every day, our son comes home excited to share what he did and eager to return the next day. We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for our child to grow. Highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a caring and enriching early learning experience!

My youngest went there from two until she started TK and she still talks fondly of Mrs. Michelle. They have a structured day where the kids have a predictable schedule of what's to come. They also plan a lot of fun activities for the kiddos such as ice cream making on letter I day or Christmas movies in PJs during the holidays. Summers at Miss Michelle's are super fun. They have park days or water play. Both of my daughters grew so much academically while at Miss Michelle's. She even gives a very detailed packet at the end of the "school year" before she starts her summer fun of all that the kids learned and their milestone! For my girls, it was a safe second home while I was working. I definitely would recommend Miss Michelle's to anybody!

More than just a school, Peppertree is a whole support system that not only empowers my children to…read morethrive, but also empowers me to improve my parenting everyday. As a parent, choosing the right educational environment for my children was one of the most important decisions I needed to make--and I can wholeheartedly say that Peppertree Montessori School has exceeded every expectation. From day one, it was clear that this school doesn't just follow the Montessori method; it embodies it. The school nurtures each child's unique potential with a deep respect for their individuality. My children are encouraged to explore their interests at their own pace, which has fostered an incredible sense of independence, confidence, and curiosity. Rather than being rushed through a standardized curriculum, they are allowed to fully engage with concepts in a hands-on, meaningful way. The educators at Peppertree are not just teachers; they are keen observers and compassionate guides.. and not just for my children but for parents as well. They provide gentle encouragement while trusting the child's inner drive to learn, which is a cornerstone of the Montessori philosophy. I've seen my kids develop not just academically, but emotionally and socially. They are becoming problem-solvers, critical thinkers, and empathetic community members. Miss Alejandra and Miss Jessika are an absolute wealth of information to me and my husband. They take the time to help us mirror the Montessori style at home. They help us problem solve and strategize the best approach for behavioral issues we experience outside of the classroom. Caroline recommended excellent parenting books that are helping us improve our parenting techniques. I'm also grateful for the school's commitment to a peaceful and respectful atmosphere. There is a strong emphasis on emotional intelligence, mindfulness, and conflict resolution, which has positively influenced how my children interact both at home and in the world around them. If you are looking for a school that honors your child's individuality, inspires a lifelong love of learning, and creates a nurturing community, I can't recommend Peppertree Montessori enough. It has been a truly transformative experience for our family.

There is a lot I could say. This review is long overdue. Our kids became more aggressive and…read moreirritable after attending here. Something was wrong and the child's teacher was constantly talking down to us. Everything from not bringing the right food to water bottles etc. Our kids in the elementary program told us that the teachers were talking down to them and pitting them against other students. Teachers requesting alcohol for teacher appreciation week- and becoming visibly irritable that we didn't provide alcohol. Keeping alcohol on the school property where kids could access it. This school has so many issues. When we first began we had a wonderful teacher. And she eventually left, and we learned this was in large part because the teachers are also treated poorly . I'm concerned that this school is still operating. If you send your kids here, please know that if their behavior is concerning at home, or if they resist going, or are stressed- it's not just a phase or them getting older like we initially thought. Listen to your child. We saw immediately our children getting better after a month detox from this place- and never sent them back. Beware of this place. It's just a paycheck for most the staff there - your kids deserve better. Take the pay cut, bring your kids home, whatever you have to do to keep them home and safe. This is not the place.
