Being a military family, schooling is always a stressor when we move to a new location. From the…read moremoment I requested information about Sandwich Montessori School to our last day before moving to our new base, we were treated with understanding and care. My husband went on tour for a year to S. Korea and my toddler was having a particularly difficult time. Once he started at SMS, we noticed such positive response from him. The teachers clearly care about each individual child--not only in school but in their home life. When I had asked if there were any books the school recommended for children with a family member going through deployment, they researched and sent me many different options to help with my child's emotional well being. The Montessori method of teaching coupled with the staff at Sandwich Montessori has given my child the knowledge and confidence to face our ever changing lifestyle. SMS was the best investment our family has made and I only wish we could have had the opportunity to send our kiddos there for their whole educational experience!

The Montessori program has taught my children the importance of independence, critical thinking and problem solving skills. Our family feels so fortunate to belong to the Sandwich Montessori community and my children have flourished since we joined the program in November 2019.

My granddaughter attended this daycare for over three years and it was a great experience. After…read moreattending a previous daycare that did not work out, we were very luck to find Mrs. Finley! I just read a review about her being "militant" and I have to disagree. She has structure which is what the kids crave. She is also a great teacher. My granddaughter just started kindergarten this year and it was a very smooth transition for her. Mrs. Finley also provides lunches and snacks which saved us a lot of time in the mornings!! I don't think you will find a better teacher to entrust your children with.

I can not say enough about Cadence Academy. We are so grateful that we found such a loving group of…read moreteachers to care for and teach our children. We started our daughter at Cadence during the pandemic. Cadence was so welcoming and facilitated me being able to meet my daughter's teachers via Zoom before we started. Although we were not able to enter the building to send our daughter off, they made it feel as though we could with their awesome report app that they use to send you updates and pictures of your child throughout the day. Through the last few years we have grown to know and love the teachers at Cadence. When we had our second child, we started him in daycare even sooner than we did our first because we had that trust in Cadence. We are so happy with our Cadence family, and would strongly recommend them to anyone searching for care and education for their children.

All of the teachers there are very warm, loving, and nurturing. The environment is safe, clean, and spacious. There were some staffing retainment issues at one point, but there has recently been a drastic shift in management which has been received favorably by all parents and staff. The food included in the tuition is thoughtfully prepared, selected, and of very good quality. The playground areas are segregated by age and are very spacious. The daily note system they use gives parents a huge piece of mind of their children's daily activities. They also do progress reports on the children which are not at all generic. They are very personable and well critiqued. The additional activities offered through Cadence are cohesive and engaging. Events like parents nights, pajama parties, and arts and crafts parties offer even more opportunities for both education and social interaction. The teachers there love and accept all children with graceful patience like they are their own. They are very creative with their daily activities and classroom routines. Cadence, for my family, has allowed my wife and I to focus on our jobs while at work knowing that our children are nurtured and loved during the day.

There is trash everywhere on the floor and wipes, paper towels and employees who just sit there and don't bother to ever get up and start cleaning.
