The owner Mrs.Vineetha Bhargava and RMA director Gayathri Kapoor are very unprofessional and have no respect and value for other's time, energy and money. Little did I realize that Mrs. Vineetha was a bossy, money minded lady. Despite the fact that some of my friends warning me about the demeanor of RMA towards parents after the fact that kids are enrolled and money is paid. https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/flower-mound-montessori-school-says-rival-montessori-school-stole-its-teachers-students-7120892 and https://www.scribd.com/document/100315374/Wonderland-vs-Rock-Brook Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have not been sending our kids to RMA as safety and health of our kids is more important to us. Mrs. Vineetha tried to keep pushing us to send our kids and pay the fees saying she was always adhering to CDC standards of cleanliness at RMA. Will she take responsibility if god forbid our kids fall sick with COVID-19? I don't think so. What is shocking is that many teachers working at RMA fear to speak about the atrocities that are prevalent due to the fear that the owner would fire them and put them in trouble. I can name names but would not like to expose the teachers to more danger than they already are in. I have praised some of the teachers who have done an outstanding job in the past but that professional recognition has never been passed on to them from Mrs. Vineetha. Let alone professional recognition with a hike or bonus, the good word was not passed on by Vineetha to the teachers either. Like someone said on Google reviews, her ego is really as big as DFW metroplex. This is very demotivating for parents and the teachers involved with RMA. It is really sad the way some temp teachers were treated. Her true colors started to show when we formally requested to withdraw our kids from the daycare and politely requested the $1000+ deposit be refunded. We at no cost are willing to send our kids to RMA and jeopardize their health by trying to use the deposit as last month fees. For over 10 days, Mrs. Vineetha and Gayathri Kapoor very craftily and shamelessly played the 'blame game' before I pushed them hard for a final answer with respect to refunding the deposit. Of course, Mrs. Vineetha hosed us for the $1035 she has from us. With this kind of attitude and a crafty director, Mrs.Vineetha you will go far! I hope parents read this and strongly suggest choose other daycare centers which are not so dishonest and not use 'underhand tenchniques' like RMA.

A School That Has Become Family…read more I just want to take a moment to share how incredibly grateful I am for this beautiful school. My family has been part of this wonderful Montessori community for over 17 years. It all started with my oldest daughter, who was just a little one when she began here, and she was the first of my children to graduate from this amazing school and go on to kindergarten. The legacy continued with my other two children. My son, who is now almost 16, also graduated from this school before starting kindergarten, and now my youngest, who is one and a half, is continuing that same beautiful journey. I truly cannot recommend this school enough. I have been so incredibly satisfied with the care, love, and education my children have received throughout the years. The teachers are absolutely amazing, and the environment is such a healthy, positive, nurturing place for children to grow and learn. I also want to give a special thank you to Mrs.Effie , the owner, who has been so wonderful to me and my family throughout all these years. She has truly become such an important part of our family's journey. After 17+ years, this school is so much more than just a school to us -- it feels like family. I am so thankful that my children have had the opportunity to grow up in such a loving and beautiful environment.

We tried one of the mainstream day schools for our three year old and within a few months realized…read moreshe was not benefiting much from that environment. Our child wasn't very interested in the play time that seemed to dominate most of their day, and the little education that was provided was far below what she already learned at home. We heard about the Montessori method and were curious. An extensive online search for good Montessori schools in Plano and Allen lead us to Montessori Children's House. Upon walking into each class during our tour, the difference was immediately clear. The children were each fully engaged in their own individual activity, it was quiet and the manners and behavior observed was very pleasing. We knew our child would fit in, and she's been very happy over the past couple months now. Besides the environment, the staff and Effie are excellent in addressing our needs and concerns. It is clear they each truly care about the development and advancement of each of their students.

When we got there, we were buzzed in and a young lady with braids opened the first inside door, looking like she'd been sleeping or was high. I told her that we had a 10 o'clock tour scheduled. She said that the owner wasn't there. At this time, another young lady opened the second inside door and just looked at us. She tells Braids, "Lemme clean up real quick." The young lady with the braid tells us to hold on, they shut both doors, and then disappear for a few minutes. We're already getting bad vibes. Braids reappears and tells us, "She (the owner) probly gon be mad but she ain't here, so I'ma go head and give y'all the tour. If she mad, oh well." We seriously should've turned around and left then. Totally unprofessional and offering way too much information. Anyway, we decide to give it a try since we'd come from Downtown Dallas to see this place. We walk into what I'm guessing is the toddler room. All of the kids are sitting in front of a tv, silent, but are staring at us, which tells me they were not engaged in what they were watching. Shortly after entering this room, we are greeted by the smell of strong urine and I noticed food and a ball of hair on the floor. It was disgusting. There was a sign on the bathroom door saying not to use the bathroom. My husband surmised that they had a sewage issue. I wonder how they manage that with those little kids? Braids then asks, pointing at my son, "Is he gon be in the infant room?" I told her I wasn't sure - it was our first time there and I wasn't sure how their rooms were set up. She says, "So he's gon be in the infant room. Let me show y'all that." She then walks in front of us and starts kinda jogging so we couldn't keep up, kinda like she was going to give the people in the infant room a heads up before we arrived. When I noticed this, I turned around and looked at my husband and he just shook his head no. So, I found Braids and told her, "No thank you. We're gonna pass," and we left. While exiting the building, the owner arrived and asked us were we there for the tour. We told her yes, but were no longer interested. My husband told her that it wasn't cool to set up a tour and not notify people that we were coming. She didn't say a word, and went right into the building. I used to be a teacher and even have a Masters degree in Education. I can assure you, this place looks nothing like a typical Montessori school. I saw no discovery learning at all. This place smells, is unsanitary, and I wouldn't want people that speak and act like that watching my kid. Stay away from this place.

RUN !!! The LAST straw for me was when my child told me she hadnt eaten anything since her lunch at…read moreschool (11:25a)she told me she informed of they're new "teachers" and that teacher told her there wasn't anymore ! Like are you serious!?!? So my daughter was hungry until 6pm when i picked her up ! And when i addresses it with the owner she blamed it on my daughter not being in her seat, instead she was helping pass out snacks to the other children! Also my child had been hurt there TWICE, the first time was minor the second time a little bit HIT HER IN THE FACE, her face was RED ! And they told me nothing either time (yes they knew) instead they apologized after I brought it to they're attention. Also one of theyre teachers left a child on the playground which i have NO IDEA how that could've happened! After i had my newborn the owner was upset that i didn't want to enroll her there. When i let them know my enrolled daughter would be leaving they tried to tell me i owed extra money, in the end they ended up actually owing me $3! Which she was petty and payed in all coins. This daycare is terrible Also they recently started hiring new "teachers", these ladies look VERY unprofessional and they have no experience, they don't even introduce you or let you know they have new teachers and neither do the teachers.

I really thought it was going to be hard for my son to transition because this was the first Child care I've ever enrolled in, but, after only a couple of days spending time there with my son, he was able to transition very quickly because of Lisa's sweet energy. She's so caring and allows the kids to be free using their imaginative mind, while teaching them to be in a calm state when there are any hard emotions. They spend a majority of their time out in Nature learning and appreciating God's gift, which is what I wanted for Clifford. I would study a little a bit of a Waldorf education before placing your child here, because it is very different from your every day DAYCARE or SOCIETY DAYCARE. If your looking for a place for your kids to be inside all day watching tv, and learning about your repetitive ABC's, 123's... this is not the place to go. If your looking for a place to allow your child to grow on his own pace and grow his imaginative mind in a natural setting this is definitely the place. Thank you Clove hill!!!
