I was at this school like years ago and I had rlly bad trauma from the teachers especially Mrs mila she still haunts my dreams and the principal and teachers there were really scary so ya but that was like 10 years ago read more

This place is a gem. I could not recommend this daycare/preschool more highly. Our children have cycled through each room at Marconi Montessori and every single set of teachers has been absolutely incredible- they are kind and warm, focused on helping our children learn how to interact and grow together. The dedication toward developing the whole child is evident in interactions staff have with children. (Even in moments when I unexpectedly show up for a midday pickup- this is consistent.) Watching the teachers/staff interact with kids is a masterclass in raising tiny humans- it's honestly shaped me as a parent. I truly believe that my kids are better people because of their time spent at MM. I feel deep gratitude for the staff at this school and the community they've built. In my experience, the director bends over backward to meet the reasonable (and sometimes unreasonable) needs and concerns of families- I don't really know of anyone who feels otherwise... and I do a lot of chatting with parents at birthday parties. My belief is that preschool is about little ones exploring the world around them and learning to interact with others (which is a big enough job as it is) so my focus isn't on academics, but I know that's a big question people have: My 4 year old is going to be entering kindergarten extremely well prepared. She knows her letters and letter sounds and can sound out words, and is adding and subtracting at MM! She knows about music (calling out, "Those are drums!" "That was piano!"when we listen to songs) and excitedly tells me about the seeds they germinated in class and how flowers grow. My sense is that teachers aren't pushing kids past what they're ready for, and are instead focused on building a love for learning, but that hasn't resulted in less exposure to pre-k and kindergarten academic content. My only rec is to get on the waitlist early because it's a long one. read more

After months of being away from this school and processing it and speaking with other parents, it's time I right a current review of this place. Understandably, this occurred during COVID, however it does not provide an excuse. So first, if you have a problem, the owner will become the "victim" and not provide adequate solutions unless you continue to advocate for your child and push for change. Many parents have shared unpleasant similar views of her. My son was hit multiple times by another child and saw a teacher slap another student (although they couldn't confirm it). Some teachers are far better than others and support learning and encourage it. From other parents, the baby side is far superior than the toddler side. From my experience in the toddler side was lacking in many areas. My son made friends and that made me happy. He learned to work with adults of varying kinds, as well as children. I stayed to finish the school year, because the enemy you know is better than the enemy you don't. My son was made safe after the incident and so he stayed. Otherwise, in my experience, I do not recommend this place. How they handle situations is poor and inadequate. If you need a daycare, you can try it for yourself. read more

Exceptional daycare and Montessori School for a very reasonable price. My husband and I toured 6 daycares in the area with infant programs and did a tour with the director. When we took our tour I didn't know much about the Montessori Program, but have since become a fan of the approach. My husband and I come from very different back grounds, but after touring the school we looked at each other and both said, "Wow! We would love for our child to go here." After touring all the other schools, we also couldn't believe the price, $800 per month cheaper than Cadence Academy, and $500 per month cheaper than Cottage Kids for infant care, and we liked this school's approach much better that either of those. It can take a long time to get in, so get on the waitlist early. We were on the waitlist for a year and were so happy when our son was accepted. I was originally thinking that if we had the money I would prefer a nanny in our house vs taking our infant to a daycare, but now that I know about Marconi Montessori I would choose them over any other care in a heartbeat. Our son loved the school right from the start. He hardly had time to say goodbye he was so excited to play with his friends, the teachers and toys at school. One thing that impressed us about the school is the organization of the rooms, they are all clean and very organized, designed to provide an educationally stimulating environment without overwhelming the kids. We toured the preschool room and several of the students were doing math games on their own and very excited to show us how they put away their toys. Ms. Fiey in the infant room runs a tight ship. She is the lead teacher and she got our son on a schedule when we weren't able to do that a home. She got him taking 2 to 3 naps a day on the Montessori infant beds, used the baby-led weaning approach we requested to give him the food we provided, works to reinforce the baby signs we are working on at home and gives a detailed report at the end of the day. Our son is also very attached to Ms. Ashley, and on several occasions cried because she was having so much fun with her he didn't want to come home. Additionally, I have been very impressed with the school's response to the COVID pandemic. They stopped school to meet with licensing, followed the licensing guidance and have re-opened for essential families while providing virtual offerings. The Director also convened an emergency parent advisory board and has been working around the clock to keep us in the loop and make sure the school continues to run. I can't say enough good things about the school. We are extremely impressed and so happy to have our son in school here. read more

I cannot say enough great things about this school. It's a place that my kiddo never wanted to leave. My husband and I were so sad to receive his belongings from his emergency kit back, signaling the end of our time here. We were with Marconi Montessori for two and a half years and in that time frame, my kiddo learned school-ish things like phonics, reading, writing, science, and math, but also how to be a friend, how to handle problems and conflicts, and how to do things on his own. Any issues that came up (whether with another student, or an injury) were addressed quickly and I was always kept in the loop. All the teachers have been wonderful and supportive. Marconi Montessori offers flexible schedules to fit any need and were always willing to work with us if we needed to adjust for anything. They have fun on-site and off-site field trips monthly, water play days during the summer, and are constantly finding new and exciting things for the kids to do. I fully recommend Marconi Montessori for anyone looking for a safe, fun, educational experience for their children. read more

My husband and I were very nervous enrolling our toddler into school. We had one experience prior and it was unpleasant for our son and us. I can not even begin to sing the praises of the faculty at Marconi Montessori School. When our son started the program they would call me and let me know he was doing well. As a new Mom, this was appreciated and it was a reflection of their attention to detail. They are compassionate and each day our son is excited to go to school and sad when it is time to leave. He is learning so much, even attending only two days a week. They focus on your child, where his/her learning is at. They do activities throughout the year from an Easter egg hunt, growing a vegetable garden, and many more daily activities to stimulate your child's development. I could go on and on about our satisfaction with this school! We can not wait to see all he learns in the next six months. read more

My husband and I were looking for a new daycare for our son. We decided to stop by Marconi Montessori as my son's teacher at a previous Montessori school had taken a position there. After a brief tour and meeting with the director (Ms. Hiresha) and teacher (Ms. Katrina), we decided to bring our son the following day to "try out" the school...we couldn't be happier with our decision! As a fairly new mom, the importance of leaving your child in an environment where they will be cared is so important. I feel my son is very cared for at this school. The passion these teachers have for their chosen profession can be seen in how they treat each child. It also helps that morning drop offs are more successful than not and he is NEVER in a rush to go home when I pick him up! Despite being out of way for my work commute, I am willing to make the drive to this school for my son. I definitely recommend anyone to visit this school. read more

My daughter has been attending this preschool for over a year. She really loves this school. In the beginning she would cry because she wanted to stay home but now she even wants to go to school on the weekend! The staff is very caring and attentive. read more

Our daughter attended this school at it's old location and while we had a few reservations, we were happy with the overall quality. Now, our son is attending and under the new ownership, we couldn't be happier. Any issues are quickly and clearly communicated to us, our son is eager to get to school and the teachers are actively engaged with the children. Very happy indeed! read more

My three children have attended Marconi Montessori School, and I couldn't have asked for a better school. We started our oldest son there when he was 2yrs, our middle daughter when she was 18 months, and now our youngest in the infant room when she was 6 months. The Montessori educational philosophy is wonderful for infants and preschool children because they have the freedom to explore their interests and learn as quickly as they want. But the best part of this school is the Director, Ms. Hiresha, and the wonderful staff she has assembled. The staff love the children and treat them with kindness and dignity and give them love and patience. I feel happy every day that I drop my children off at a place where they feel safe, are learning, and where they love going to school. read more

My daughter has been going to Marconi Montessori since she was 18 months old. The teachers and staff have been amazing with her and she has thrived there. She is 4 years old now and I feel confident she is well prepared for her success in the years to follow!! read more

1 month in, so far so good! Teachers are great, experienced, and present. They all seem happy to be working there. Director is always available and responds to questions quickly. They are taking strides to improve the outdoor play area, which was pretty good to begin with but is going to be amazing when it's done. Planned trips and activities for the year are going to be fun and educational (for example, farm day next month with barnyard animals at the school, trip to a senior center in Dec to teach giving to those less fortunate, etc). Classrooms are clean and organized, food that is provided is simple and nutritious, and the school is affordable. Most importantly, my almost 3 year old son loves it there and looks forward to school each day. read more
