This is my first and hopefully last review I will ever have to make. I would think twice if you…read morewere thinking of sending your child to this school. My son has told me that a staff member, Mrs. Campbell, grabbed him by the arm to slow down, and his friends verified this happened. They have shown me pictures on their phones of the red marks she left on his upper arm. Regardless of him running, she shouldn't have laid a hand on my son. They all said she can be really mean at times and overly aggressive. I was really upset and was going to file a complaint, but my son didn't want any unwanted attention. He will be going to Seabury Hall next year with his friends. He said it wasn't a big deal, but I think it is.

Our daughter tells everyone that the reason math is her best subject and that she loves it is because "Mrs. Anderson my third grade teacher taught it to me in a way I understood it". Due to her love for math, she now she wants to be an Aerospace Engineer. Academics are highly valued at DTCA and our daughter is well prepared both spiritually and academically. We will miss the DTCA Aloha and Ms. Kathy's loving and cheerful radiance greeting us first thing in the morning -- so blessed!! Thank you DTCA!!

My family was so blessed to find Lyn. My child arrived when her doors opened at two months old and…read moreit has been a pleasure to watch my son learn, love, share and socialize with other children. Words can't do justice to the great experience I've had at ABC Keiki Care. As a mother of a newborn she brought smiles to my face as I would receive photos and text messages throughout the day. It is awesome to watch this woman work! My favorite message/video she sent me was of her trying to get my son down for his nap and patting his bum and being so responsive to his cues for more! It was hilarious and humbling to watch her care for him so individually. I found this quote once and it describes perfectly what I've found with ABC Keiki Care: Family child care Is NOT babysitting. It's not comparable To any child care center. It's FAMILIES in RELATIONSHIPS With a PROFESSIONAL Care provider In an environment, that becomes, BY DESIGN, a second home, And a whole bunch of people Partnering, trusting, caring And educating each other.

They surely will miss their Preschool, the Little Explorers. Would recommend this school to all the parents.

We first walked in and immediately felt the passion that both Katie and Michelle had for not only teaching but for the kids. And it's definitely evident when we see them with our child. Below are just some of the many reasons we love the school: They follow the DOE (department of education) calendar. If you have other kids, you know how important it is to have them all off at the same time for vacations!  Small class sizes. The kids get the one-on-one they not only need, but deserve. The teachers really get to know the kids on a personal level and it shows when they do the parent teacher conferences. They are able to articulate where your child is excelling and where they need extra attention and give you the support you need to help them at home.  Strong Montessori foundation. We've explored many other types of schools but have found that Montessori is the absolute best for our child. She's just started Kindergarten and will be well above 2nd grade level once she's finished.  After school programs. The school offers many exciting after school programs that the kids love like soccer, dance, science and even yoga. These really benefit us in particular because they go beyond the normal school hours and work best with our work schedules.  Price. Very affordable especially considering the quality education that the kids receive and there are plenty of programs for financial assistance (preschool open doors).  Cultural/environmental awareness. One thing we really love is how our child is now very aware of their environmental footprint and how they can make positive changes. For instance, they have a Monk Seal responder team that will actually go out and meet when there is a Monk Seal sighting. This hands on approach is such an amazing way for the kids to learn. Also, the school is great at having lessons based on the Hawaiian culture and Maui in general.  Mahalo Nui Little Monk Seal Montessori!
