Before my wife and I enrolled our son at Flintridge, my view of most montessori day cares was one…read moreof ambivalence. Our son had involvement in some early start programs, a mix of nanny's and babysitters, but little to bring him out of his shell. On a recommendation, we enrolled him at Flintridge. We witnessed our son flourish, socially blossom into a far more gregarious and enthusiastic participant in play, and embrace his weekend extracurriculars with more vigor and attention. I assumed at first this was just the result of more socialization, but the more time I spent with the teachers on this small campus, I realized it was the result of their curriculum, compassion, and genuine interest in each child's success. My wife and I found ourselves shocked when our once shy wallflower took front stage of a school recital and pantomimed a song and dance we never once rehearsed at home, unbeknownst to us but no less welcome. We had every opportunity to involve ourselves in the day-to-day of the class without any news or emails feeling overbearing. Pick Up and Drop Off was always pleasant, and the fellow parents we met felt like community. I say without hyperbole that I will truly miss Flintridge Montessori, and recommend it to any parent and child without reservation. An extra shoutout to Ms Joyce, Ms Melo, Ms Karly, but much love to all of the wonderful staff.

After doing my research amongst the different pre-schools in the area and visiting a few of them, I…read moredecided to send my child to Flintridge Montessori School. When it came time to send my other child to pre-school, I without a doubt, wanted to send him to FMS. They both competed their toddler through TK/K program. At FMS, their teaching style is the Montessori method. It is well balanced with social, academic, hands-on learning, then they add in workbooks as they get older. The classrooms are always clean and organized, never cluttered. They have "toys" for learning, which are kid accessible, on low shelves, easy for them to reach. I like their play yard. They have age-appropriate play structure, sand pit, tricycles, rock climbing wall. I like that you can visibly see every part of the yard from the classroom locations. Many of the teachers have been there over 5, 10, 15+ years. Special shout out to Ms. Joyce (curriculum director /lead teacher), Ms. Melo, Ms. Hilda (lead teacher), - who are in the pre-school classes and they taught both my kids. Along with the other FLM teachers, they are all caring, nurturing, welcoming to my kids. Every morning, you will see them working 1:1 with the kids on their letters, numbers, lifecyles of a plant; while other kids are playing with their Montessori toys or doing an activity with the other teachers. They even had an incubator to let the student watch fertilized eggs develop and hatch while learning about biology and life cycles. My younger child went onto the TK/K class, he was taught by Ms. Jasmine (lead teacher) and Ms. Karly. Every morning, like the other classes, she is always so happy to see my child, providing me updates on his development. She too, working 1:1 with each child. By the end of TK, he was able read full sentences, do 1st grade level workbooks, solve simple math and subtraction problems, and name the state capitols. He is WAY more than ready to go into Kinder! Other highlights that I liked about the school are the showcases, held every holiday and spring, in which each class puts on an amazing performance organized by the teachers. The kids will perform several songs with choreography. I look forward to these every year. Potty training offered at the school was immensely beneficial. They made it so easy. After school care is another reason that I choose FMS. All the after school teachers are kind, playing and reading with the kids. They have a variety of days/hours/plans to choose from based on your needs. For working parents, this is very important. They are open even when other schools are closed for most winter and summer breaks. They are only closed for teacher trainings and holidays. Extracurricular after school activities is offered there for an additional, nominal fee. They have soccer shots, dance classes, art classes, and Ms. Joyce offers Mandarin classes. They offer summer camp, with themed weeks, and specialized events for the school year and summer, ie. reptile show, petting zoo, pony rides, bubble show, visiting the fire station next door, Doctor/Dentist /JPL career lessons. With Ms. Taylor managing administrative duties, I have seen a such an improvement on clear, concise communication to the parents, sharing information, keeping track of any payments and record keeping, like office stuff. She is so organized and pleasant to work with. The Director, Ms. Rohini, has been instrumental to this school, from hiring a strong team of teachers and maintaining a childcare & learning community we are happy to be part of. We are so sad to leave, but they prepared my kids for their next stage in life while teaching them to become good human beings. I love this school and especially love the teachers. EVERYONE there deserves raises!

It used to be a good agency years ago!!…read more Staff constantly changing...hard to keep up with behaviorists that don't show up on time and chronically late to sessions. BF Agency does not do anything about it. They set rules and guidelines that benefit the company and not the child. Cancellation line hardly picks up the phone during normal business hours and they expect you to notify the office by calling but no one picks up...or they are half asleep when they finally answer the phone. Worse agency to work with...too bad it's going down .... Behavior Frontiers saw better days ...down..down..done.......

After having my son on a waiting list for a long time,the services received were not at all what…read morewas expected,in the 5 months my son had services with this company his therapist changed about 5-6 times if it's actually not more,not to mention the amount of cancellations you will get, it's so bad that you will actually be surprised if they actually did show up,they ill be there for at least a week then start cancelling at least 2-3 sessions a week,Raissa Echavarria was out case supervisor and all she would do was apologize and promise that they would try their best,she would lie about how long the therapist were employeed to keep you getting their services,and obviously after seeing how the therapist worked you would realize that they were newly hired with no experience at all, therapist would show up and look lost,I would have to be the one telling my son what to do because the therapist didn't know how to approach my child!!!Did I mention she thinks ok to give this kind of service because she thinks that someone paying a PPO insurance is funded by the insurance, trying to say that my son is getting free services when his services were actually only covered 80%,and obviously the more upsetting part is that knowing their employees will be moving ot of state,they decide to assign them to your case knowing damn well that the following month they will be sending a new face ,but the final straw is seeing how my son was always ready and to ust have someone not show,that really pisses me off,my son being a fast learner,pulling out his little table and chairs to just have session cancelled,my son deserves better!!! SO IF YOU WANT THE BEST FOR YOUR CHILD,YOU WILL DEFINITELY BOT FIND THAT WITH THIS COMPANY!!!
