We initially heard World of Learning of Montessori through my son's schoolmates mom…read more We went ahead & visited the place, met Ms. Prema, she gave us a good amount of information regarding the after-school program. The reason we had to transfer our son from his previous program was there was no actual program, it was all play, no foundation for learning, & he just ends up exhausted from the 'play-time' that he was getting. We transitioned him without hesitation & with the help of Ms. Prema & her staff, they saw the potential & weakness of my son, they started him with an individualized plan to make him a better student. He has progressed dramatically since he begun with Reading, Math, Homework, & advanced study to prepare him better. They are very patient & always communicate with us in every step of the way. School year just ended, my sons teacher saw the tremendous improvement over-all with his skills & his learning habits, and we give a big portion of credit to Ms. Prema & her team! We are grateful & satisfied with the patience, hard-work, & dedication of her team! Also, one of the positive side is they offer to pick-up your child from school to the montessori, which is a huge plus so we don't have to worry about getting to one place to the other. We highly recommend this place as it gives children a good balance of learning, study, play, & improvement of the child over all.

He learned phonics, read small and large words through phonics, wrote his numbers 1-100 since 4. She truly loves what she does and has helped many kids learn to their potential. She sees all kids as great sponges. After school care for homework is excellent and has helped my son stay in track. Ms Prema along with the rest of her staff is so caring and truly as asset to the community and a blessing to our family.

I have been thinking and giving some thoughts. At first this school was good I saw my daughter…read morelearning and improving in her development, educational wise. My daughter she's 3 year old she's being assets at the Artesia preschool development center and got her iep. She has been working with harbor regional center. She didn't qualify for the school so instead she's being put on the waiting list at the state preschool. At that time I was looking around to see what's best for her since she needs extra help in everything. She's delayed in a lot of things especially in speech wise. I found Lakewood Montessori had a tour with miss Jazmin at first she's good then she got offended that I texted too much about my daughter concern. She sent pictures to me which I like about my daughter doing. I reply back and said she knows how. :) she keep saying I text to much. Then my daughter kept getting sick so I inform them. Then she complain I text too much and worry too much. (Well no shit she's my child and she got Covid) Then last week she texted my husband because he came to the school with me to pick my daughter up. She then talk shit to my husband and said I need to stop worry and concern. Well of course my daughter has a delay learning and doesn't know how to feed herself and do a lot of things herself. You're a professional teacher but not professional enough to teach kids that need the extra help. She told me use the pictures I sent to see if my daughter knows the name of her friends. Well I did that she don't know the names of her friends. They're very expensive potty training I paid $150 and they're not doing anything at all. The school itself cost around $1100. Plus material fees and pizza party. Omg they even charge for pizza LOLOL I don't think I will be taking my daughter here anymore as you can see. Is already drama miss Jazmin causing drama to my family while my husband is busy working and she act like he cares. At a public school if the parents is concerned about their child education the teachers are more professional when a parent is asking question. This school is not professional enough every time I asked both Ms Jazmin and Ms erash they tell me not to worry and my daughter is fine. I also asked them what she learn today because my daughter is still speech delay. They don't tell me. Save the trouble if you want better education and teacher for your child, especially kids that need more help this school is not it. Parents can't even ask questions they get annoyed. public school abc school district is totally different. Edit: thank you for giving the refund back to us but my review still stands because this school is not specialized enough to kids who needs the special help. They might have over 25 years of experienced but not experienced enough in other criteria. Thank you for teaching my daughter for about one month she did learn a lot until I wanted to see how's she doing everyday. My parents when I was in school, they also asked the teachers how her child was doing. It's normal to ask and concern. And this school does not potty train they will charge $150 but they won't potty trained your kids.

That kind of comfort doesn't happen by accident, it comes from teachers who genuinely care. Both of them have been incredible about listening to us as parents. Any question or concern we brought up was met with patience and real attention, never dismissed. They took the time to understand our daughter as an individual, and it showed in how she grew more confident, more curious, and more herself by the day. Ms. Amy and Ms. Tabitha, the directors, have also been wonderful. Thay are always welcoming, always making us feel like part of the community from the moment we walked in. We feel so fortunate that our daughter had teachers who didn't just look after her, but genuinely helped shape who she's becoming. This place will always stay close to our hearts. Thank you for everything.

His socialization skills have improved immensely and his intellectual capacity has grown exponentially. I'm always amazed by what he knows or has learned. Their tuition is very reasonable. Their teachers are honestly the best there is and they love the kids so much. Quality Montessori education in a loving environment. Edit: I don't understand the negative review below mine. I'm actually offended that this person even attacked Ms. Tabitha or Ms. Amy's character. They are nothing but the kindest and caring humans I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I reiterate: My husband and I could not be happier with our experience at this Montessori daycare. From the moment we walked in, we felt warmth, calm, and genuine care. The classrooms are beautifully prepared, inviting, and thoughtfully designed to encourage independence and curiosity. The teachers are beyond amazing -- patient, attentive, and deeply respectful of each child as an individual. They truly embody the Montessori philosophy, guiding rather than directing, and nurturing confidence, focus, and a love of learning. It has been incredible to watch our child grow in independence, communication skills, and self-esteem in such a short time. We especially appreciate how the program fosters practical life skills, kindness, and problem-solving. Our child comes home excited to share what they learned and proudly demonstrates new skills every week. Communication with parents is excellent, and we always feel informed and included. The sense of community here is something special -- it feels like an extension of our family. If you're looking for a nurturing, enriching, and joyful environment where your child will truly thrive, this Montessori daycare is an absolute gem. We are so grateful we found it! You won't be disappointed nor regret your decision in having your child learn here. We're even going to put our daughter in once their infant room is up and running!

I started looking for preschools back when my son was still an infant, and I am so glad BESA was my…read morefirst choice! This school goes above and beyond to provide appropriate, individualized care for every child. They offer every opportunity for children to receive high quality learning experiences and diverse cultures. Their teachers are also incredibly knowledgable about child development which is surprisingly rare among preschools. My son has been attending since early 2022, and he has grown in so many ways! We are a primarily English and Vietnamese speaking home, so it has been really cool to watch him also learn and utilize Spanish on a regular basis due to his education at BESA. He also has a strong desire to learn to read, and his gross motor skills have come such a long way because of the daily opportunities he gets to run outside and play with peers! He also used to be a very picky eater, but since attending BESA he has begun to expand his palate and will try just about anything. He has also cultivated a love and appreciation for animals and nature itself, I believe due to his time in and around the school garden and its bunnies. During apple season, he would come home almost every day with an apple from the tree in their play yard. Green apples are now his absolute favorite fruit! BESA does accept subsidized care which has been a godsend. I thought because I could not afford preschool on my own, my son's educational opportunities would be limited. Not only has my son learned and grown so much (showing off the yoga, Spanish, math, and letters he learns daily), but BESA has also championed ME as a mom and human being! Their support has encouraged and allowed me to return to school and work which has given our family the chance it deserves to grow as a whole. Finally (though I could go on and on), I am grateful for their support of my family's unique parenting experience. My son's dad lives out of state, and we include bonus mama in our parenting decisions. BESA has gone above and beyond to make all three of us feel like equal partners in our son's education and development. They have been responsive and supportive each time we hit a behavioral challenge with our son, and they have been great with ensuring we are all involved and informed with their next steps as well as genuinely asking how they can support practices we already have at home. BESA really does intentionally hit all the parts of their name. High quality bilingual education, appreciation and cultivation of environmental science, intentional incorporation of all the arts (dance, music, visual, etc), which have supported academic development and absolute thriving socioemotional growth. Grateful to BESA in so many ways. If you're considering attending or getting on the waitlist, do NOT wait. Best early education decision I could have made for our family was attending BESA!

I have experienced their toddler and early childhood program. I have seen my kids flourish under the teacher's guidance, patience, love, and humor(!), as well as surrounded by other students who are being taught how to be independent and kind to each other. I especially love the mixed aged classroom where older kids are taught to be patient and caring with the younger kids. I'm so glad I discovered greenhouse for my kids. Thank you teachers for all you do!! My kids Love going to school. In particular it's their teachers that are exceptionally awesome and caring. I hope the administrators do what they can to keep and retain them. The teachers are the lifeblood of this school and why parents recommend others to come.

When we did the initial walk through at MGH, we informed Michelle of my son's frustration and…read morebehavior issues and asked her how they would address this at school, she confidently told me she would take him outside to diffuse him. We also had numerous formal and informal meetings with Christine and Karinna, who always said they wanted to work with us. We were told we had to get outside help from a doctor, and when we told them it would take a while to see results (per the psychologist), they reiterated they were willing to help. After being called to be picked up after an hour of class on his 4th full day of school, I spoke with Christine and she told me what happened. I also called the director, Heather, to discuss our options. Christine didn't mention anything about Simon not being allowed to attend school anymore without extra help provided by his family, nor did Heather. On Tuesday morning, I sent Heather an email with tips of how to diffuse my son, thinking the teachers could use it as a guideline in helping to steer him in the right direction. Twenty minutes prior to school starting, she called to tell me that it wasn't possible for my son to get any more one on one from the teachers and since our nanny couldn't be at the school until 10am, the staff felt they weren't safe with my son in class without the help. Why Heather didn't call me Monday or even earlier Tuesday morning to let me know he was not able to attend that day still baffles me. Heather said she was waiting to talk to me at the site, but that would have only resulted in her turning us away as I had my daughter with me that morning and wouldn't have been able to stay to help.  I got my so ready that morning, we packed his lunch together, and I gave him the pep talk about Karinna not being in class, but got him excited for music class that day. If I wouldn't have sent that email, Heather wouldn't have called at all and we would have arrived at the school only for her to have told us the news in front of my son. How do you think he would have felt about that? I'm surprised that the director of a place that regards itself as fostering confidence in young children would reject a child to their face. The website states, "studies prove that the relationship between a caretaker and a child is more secure when it's longer. It supports the social and emotional development of a child. Whereas, frequent change in approach or caretakers can cause suffering and early depression in children." Heather and her staff gave my son one full day the first week and three full days the second week, calling us to pick him up on what would have been his fifth day at MGH.  If the email I had sent Tuesday morning were suggestions from an actual psychologist, would they have called to tell me you couldn't give him one on one attention to implement the strategies from a doctor? The meeting on Friday with the teachers suggested otherwise, as we were told they were ready to work with whatever care we found once an assessment was made. Christine informed me that she would have to call to have my son picked up from school if the kids felt unsafe. According to her, this happened for the first time on Monday even though he was called to be picked up three prior days of school. No one informed me he wouldn't be able to return without my nanny or a parent in the classroom after this one incident of him kicking in the direction of a child. I was under the impression that we would have to come get him if it happened again, but not that he couldn't return. The first I heard of this was twenty minutes before the start of class on Tuesday. I was caught of guard and it was very unprofessional. I am so glad this did not end up happening in front of my four year old son, as the director originally intended. I understand my so was not easy and required a lot of one on one. He has never been in anything full time all day. He has never been in a Montessori setting. I believe he was not given a fair chance to succeed. He was not even given an entire week. The MHG program is more geared toward families with Montessori backgrounds, with kids that are ready to do their work without much assistance. This should have been conveyed to us before we signed on, as we were open about his past behavior and experience. I hope in the future you are up front with parents regarding any children that may have special needs or behavioral problems.
