Jennifer and her entire team of teachers are absolutely exceptional. They encourage our girls to explore, create, sing, dance, and be in nature. They handle interpersonal communication -both between children and with parents- with ease and compassion. They grow plants and take care of chickens. I couldn't have dreamed up a better school for our family! I am beyond grateful that this will be their first "school" experience and it is instilling a love of learning and creating friendships in a safe, comforting environment.

I can't say enough wonderful things about this Montessori preschool! My almost 2-year-old daughter…read moreis thriving, and it's all thanks to the loving and highly skilled teachers, especially Ms. Rachel, who my daughter adores like a second mom. The teachers here are incredibly well-trained in nurturing and guiding kids aged 1-4, and I can see the results every day. One of the biggest milestones for us has been potty training. My daughter is getting the support she needs at school, and it's clicking! She comes home so happy and fulfilled, singing, dancing, and playing. I was initially so worried about putting her in daycare, as she was a Velcro baby and would always scream when she wasn't with me. But the environment is so warm and welcoming that she quickly became comfortable and now loves going to school. What makes this place truly special is the variety of enriching activities. My daughter helps take care of the chickens, tends the organic garden, and enjoys reading, drawing, dancing, and playing with her friends. The magic these teachers create in their classrooms is truly amazing--they know just how to care for my baby girl, and I feel so lucky to have found them. I also love how transparent and communicative the school is. I receive daily text message updates, so I always know what's going on with my daughter, which gives me so much peace of mind. The school worked with us on our budget and schedule, and I really appreciate how upfront they are with pricing and schedules on their website--no hidden surprises. Ms. Jennifer, the owner, made us feel like family from day one, and I'm so grateful for the warm, nurturing environment she's created. I honestly feel like we hit the jackpot with this preschool. It's the best possible place for our daughter, and I would recommend it to any parent looking for a magical, loving environment where their child can grow and thrive!

From the friendly front desk staff to every teacher and staff member, it's clear that they're dedicated to creating a warm, nurturing environment. One of the things I appreciate most is how much the school emphasizes both kindness and education. They have events nearly every week that bring families together and build a strong sense of community. My daughter has flourished here--she's become a confident reader and has learned so much during her time in kindergarten. She's now fully prepared and excited to start 1st grade! I believe education and morals start at home, but having a school that reinforces those values is such a gift. Communication is top-notch--they use an app to keep parents informed, whether it's updates on classroom activities or even small incidents like a fall on the playground. I always feel in the loop and confident that my daughter is in great hands. We feel safe and secure every day she's there, and I'm excited to say that my son will be starting preschool at Montessori Education Center next year. I couldn't imagine a better place for my children to grow and learn.

From the moment we met Marsea and Ruth we felt very comfortable that our son would be in great hands. Marsea and Ruth took exceptional care in structuring his education based on his level of development. Ruth had a great variety of subjects that she would teach all of the kids each week. The kids would be fully engaged in science projects, puzzles, creating art projects and even watching their own caterpillars metamorphosize into butterflies. The kids were always engaged and challenged in new experiences. We and our son truly enjoyed the time he spent at Prodigy Learning Center. Thanks Marsea and Ruth

I was terrified to put my daughter In school as a first time mom. I actually couldn't handle the anxiety so I pulled her out after I was sobbing all day the first day she was gone. Well, penny and the staff were not only empathetic but made me feel comfortable doing things on my own time table. So when I decided to try again a week later I was welcomed with open arms. The quality of the teachers here feels more like a family. Everyone in the school helps each other. Miss Jazzy, Miss Caitlin, really every single teacher I have ever met has made me feel like home. They all know your child and love your child. Miss Wulan and Miss Ann Marie were her home room teachers and wow. These woman.. they don't make them like this anymore! Positive, loving, personal, engaged are only a few ways to describe them. They have been absolutely instrumental to Logan's growth and experience. She has thrived and become a social butterfly. These teachers never look tired and are always up beat. Ms Chrystal at the front desk always welcomes you with warmth and familiarity and never judged how many incident reports my daughter had. I was always met with comfort and understanding whenever I was worried about something my Daughter had done! And the school is owned and managed by Penny who is a GEM of a human being. These women are loving, smart, and are valued so much. They deserve the world and I'm so grateful to have found them. I'm forever in debt to this school and all it has done for myself and my daughter. Also, they know how much I love them and never once asked for a review. But if you are a nervous mom, or want an honest take, please ask penny for my number and I'd be happy to walk you through how they made this experience incredible.

This review is overdue! I can't say enough good things about Goddard on East Germann. From the day…read moreof our tour, Ms. Penny made time to meet with us and made us feel completely at ease. Being a first time parent and transitioning your child from being with you 24/7 to daycare is tough, for child and parent alike. What I found incredibly helpful was the time Ms. Penny took to answer all of our questions and make us feel confident in our decision. The transition was very smooth, our little one runs to the door every time we say it's time for school. He often just runs straight into the classroom, already busy playing, a true reflection of his teachers' supportive and caring nature. He is confident and at ease, and what's been most surprising is how much his knowledge and learning continue to expand. From watching him dance with his classmates to fun tunes, to seeing him replicate that at home, or hearing him point to our eyes and ears and say the words, every day feels like he develops a new skill. His vocabulary and social skills are both continuously growing. Although leaving your child to go to work never gets easier, I have full peace of mind knowing he is in the right hands. We are constantly updated with pictures and videos from his day, along with fun events, dress-up days, learning milestones, and classroom activities. They also have an amazing backyard with real grass for the kids to run around in, and even a splash area during the summer. All in all, I couldn't recommend Goddard on East Germann enough and am endlessly grateful to Ms. Penny, his teacher Ms. Sydni and the amazing teachers who care for our son.

We cannot recommend Spondeo Montessori Preschool & K-3 enough. My son attended for three years, and…read morethe impact this school has had on his growth is truly invaluable. During a season of complex family dynamics, the staff showed exceptional kindness, understanding, and professionalism. They provided a safe, stable, and deeply nurturing environment where my son was able to thrive during some of the most important early childhood developmental years. The Montessori approach to child-led learning was beautifully implemented. Beyond academics, my son gained incredible life skills... gardening, cleaning, food preparation, understanding personal space, and practicing etiquette. These practical skills built his confidence and independence in ways that extend far beyond the classroom. Today, he is thriving both socially and academically, and I credit so much of that foundation to his time at Spondeo. The director Andrea is one of the most kind, child-centered, and professional women I have ever met. She runs the school exceptionally well and is highly involved in the daily life of the students and teachers. You can truly feel her heart for children in everything the school does. We are so grateful for our time there and would wholeheartedly recommend Spondeo to any family looking for a nurturing, enriching Montessori education.

We have been absolutely thrilled with our experience at Spondeo Montessori. Our son has been…read moreattending this daycare for nearly a year, starting when he was just 8 months old. The care and attention he received in the infant room were exceptional, with the staff always providing individualized care (like easing him into the day with his favorite basket of balls), even sending us photos and updates throughout the day, which put our minds at ease. Now that he has transitioned to the toddler room, we continue to be impressed by how much he is learning and growing. The Montessori approach has truly supported his natural curiosity and independence. Whether it's through sensory activities, practical life exercises, or outdoor play, we see him thriving and hitting key developmental milestones like learning to communicate better (thank you sign language) and developing fine motor skills. The staff is loving, patient, and genuinely invested in each child's development, always encouraging his progress while keeping us closely informed about his day-to-day experiences. The facilities are clean, safe, and thoughtfully designed to create a warm and stimulating environment for the children. We also appreciate how the school fosters a sense of community among families, hosting events and providing resources that allow us to feel even more connected to our child's learning journey. When we were looking at daycares we considered other Montessori-based daycares (some independently owned and some franchise), and we're so glad that we chose Spondeo! We found that the franchise based Montessori daycares felt more adjacent to a regular daycare and didn't offer the same level of independence and problem-solving that we offer at home. Spondeo does such a great job respecting our child's abilities! We couldn't be happier with the level of communication, support, and involvement the staff maintains with us as parents. We highly recommend Spondeo Montessori to any parents looking for a nurturing, educational, and enriching daycare environment for their child. It has been the perfect fit for our family!

It has been in existence for well over 30 years (and the prices are reminiscent of 1985! Just sayin'). My former husband attended here (in the same building) and so when our oldest turned 3, we enrolled him. He loved it (he is now 15, still with fond memories of MLC). Now my youngest, almost 4, has loved it too. I love that he skips in when I drop him off and is beaming and happy when I pick him up. This is TRUE Montessori, and it has been so wonderful to watch all 3 of my kids blossom and become more of themselves in the Montessori method-- confident, self assured and capable. I'll be so sad the end of next year when I won't have any more kiddos to come here! Check out this school!

She uses all real materials/objects in teaching not just plastic toys like any other places. She seems to know how to discipline the children in a right way. I am totally in love with this school. I think she has no ratings because people do not know about her school much. . It is a home preschool setting with a lovely teacher. Not much advertising.

I had high hopes for Greenhouse Montessori. I loved the…read morevision of outdoor learning, the enrichment programs discussed online, and the thought of a supportive community. I also really liked the values they spoke of. In the beginning things started out amazing and then quickly just went downhill and looking back I realize a lot now I didn't notice at the time we were with the school. And to be fair, teachers like Ms. Andrea and Ms. Theresa (often in the front office) are truly wonderful. But overall, the experience was disappointing especially with the Director Ms. Jennifer and how different things were from what's promised. First, the outdoor learning was one of the biggest things we were excited about, but when my child clearly desired/needed more time outside than inside, it was a constant issue. I was told staffing made it difficult, which goes against everything they promote online. Other programs like "live animal enrichment" and "preschool philanthropy"were talked about but didn't actually exist at all the 2024/2025 school year. And with the lower elementary program shutting down this next year (2025/2026), it of course raised red flags about the school's stability. There's also limited childcare, no after school care, no break care, and only 16 summer spots I was told. Again very different than their online promises. Bringing it back to the hardest part though, our interaction with the Director. I heard about not great interactions had with her but it wasn't until we neared ending our time with the school I finally experienced it first hand. When I had tried to advocate for my son/family, I was met with coldness, defensiveness, and zero empathy. I mean zero. Felt like professional gaslighting at its finest. Instead of working with me, I was told my son was just "no longer a fit." She seemed to be avoiding discomfort rather than doing what was best for my son. And looking back there was a pattern of families being pushed out when they advocated too much. There's also a noticeable lack of diversity, and manyyy kids were encouraged to get IEPs only to later be told they don't belong there any more because Greenhouse couldn't work with them. Lots of kids dropped like flies from the programs. It made me question how much they really support inclusion and individualized learning (like they claim). I really wanted to believe in this school. But the gap between their online image and reality is too big to ignore. I hope in the future they make the necessary changes to be fully in alignment with their promises because they do have great potential and loving teachers.
