It's such a clean school having just opened less than two years ago and the team seems to guide the kids to such good rules for living. She is only 18 months but is such a good little helper at the house. We love that she has had an awesome sleep schedule since starting. She also has not gotten sick much from School, which seems to be the thing parents worry about the most.

I have both of my kids at Guidepost Bradley Hills right now - one in the infant class and one in…read morethe 3-6 class - and we've had a really great experience overall. There was some staff turnover in my older child's classroom last school year that wasn't ideal, but the current team is fantastic and seems really committed for the long haul. The teachers are caring and attentive, and it's amazing to see how much progress both kids are making, especially when I compare to peers at other schools. My 3y/o is writing words already(!), and my infant is getting way more attention and support through bottle-feeding transition, crawling, teething, etc. than we ever got at my eldest's first school. 7a-6p hours are great for us (both working parents), and above all, both of our kids are happy and genuinely thriving here. As a parent that's all I can really ask for.

All parents worry, they only seek the best for their little ones. My daughter and I toured a few…read morecenters together when she was roughly months old. I felt like Goldilocks, one was just too big, too full of kids and not enough oversite; one was too small, and The Children in the Shoe in Olney... Well that one was just right. Within mins. of starting our tour, my sweet little girl was fast asleep in her carrier. We had found her home away from home. She began in the infant room and has been happy transitioning through her development phases. Now my daughter is in the 3's classroom and I am just as happy with the Shoe as I was during our tour. The teachers have been amazing, transparent, and loving. They communicate, are informative and best of all responsive. The directors to everyone who attends the front desk, each and every one of them are welcoming every single day, how is that humanly possible?! When you step inside, it's a small community. It is very common to find parents, teachers, children, and staff greeting each other, and having short quick conversations. During one of the many conversations that I had with my daughters 2's teachers, they mentioned that her speech was delayed. I loved that the teacher shared her concern and didn't hold it for a more formal parent / teacher conference. Since then, the teachers and staff have been extremely accommodating in welcoming her speech therapist into the classroom on a regular basis. It is home away from home! My little one has had her fair share of bumps and bruises, I know that with every bump, scrape and bruise she gets, she receives twice as many hugs and cuddles. At the end of day, during pick up the teachers make it a point to actually see the parents, talk to the parents and work daily to create a positive connection with the patents. If they are willing to do that after a day of teaching and loving their students - they must be super heroes. I know after a long at work, all I want to do is go home and relax.

I can not speak highly enough about my experience at Children in the Shoe. It has been my…read morechildren's home away from home for the past 7 years (daughter went from 3 months until 5) (son 2 months to current at 2) . the care they receive there matches what I would provide at home. i went to visit a lot of centers because I thought no one would care for my children like I would. I wanted to be a stay at home mom. Until I met Stephanie! she put me at ease from the get go and out with with all of my nerves from day one and with each classroom change until my daughter graduated. She was even there for me when my mother passed away. the shoe is a family that i am happy to be a part of and I hope it continues for years to come. I have two very happy well adjusted kids and their daycare plays a roll in that. Each teacher seems happy to be there and really loves each child and you can see that just by walking around. I wouldn't want my kids anywhere else. We love the shoe!

My daughter has been attending Orchard Montessori for 3 years and I can't say enough good things…read moreabout this place! It's a smaller group which means each kid gets all the attention and support they need. I'm continuously being amazed by the curriculum and the program - Spanish, music, art, soccer, field trips, field day - my kid loves going to school so much! She just turned 5 and can name all the countries in South America and Europe and all 50 states in the US. I don't know many adults who can! She's going to kindergarten this year but I already enrolled my second child to be in this program. We've had an excellent experience and will recommend Anitha's program to anybody who's interested! Great price for this area and totally worth it!

We absolutely love LCYC!…read more My son started in the Two's program and is now in the Three's classroom, and we've had such a wonderful experience every step of the way. The staff is incredible--many even have their own children enrolled or previously enrolled, which really shows how much they believe in the program. LCYC truly feels like a community of parents and teachers working together to help the kids learn and grow. The smaller class sizes make such a difference and really allow for personalized attention. My son has become so much more independent, and he's thriving academically and socially. It's been amazing watching the relationships he's built with both the staff and the other children. We couldn't be happier, and I highly recommend LCYC to any parent looking for a nurturing, high-quality early learning environment.

It's important for me to know that my son isn't just another number on their roster. My son has really enjoyed LcYC the last two years and we are very happy with the program and curriculum. Next year my Daughter will be attending as well and u can't wait for her to learn and grow with the great teachers and staff that LCYc has. The new director Mrs Rana has also done a lot of great things with the school and I know from other parents comments that they are very happy with the new direction the school is taking with her in charge.

Safety protocols are followed, everything is spotless, and everyone is in masks. I am an educator and tend to scrutinize teachers & programs more than the average parent, and I am thrilled with everything Anny does with my kids. As a founding family we have been with her since the start. She is nurturing, consistent, and explains everything to her students, which is incredibly important for our son who is very concrete in his thinking. The school is incredibly organized with endless amounts of activities, wonderful natural light, and a huge outdoor play space. The Montessori materials and small setting provide the exploration and developmental opportunities that my kids weren't getting in their previous school with dozens of other children in their class. The school atmosphere and daily schedule provides my kids with the routine and stability they need. Anny's communication is phenomenal, with a weekly snack schedule, newsletter, and being accessible to discuss anything that pops up. Casa MAKV has a secure Facebook page where we can view pictures of our kids being engaged in daily activities. I'm sure I am forgetting something, but honestly we are incredibly thankful we found this school and Anny. Our kids love going to school every day and are annoyed when we come to pick them up because they are always having so much fun.

I'm a pediatric occupational therapist and a mom of 4 young children and can be quite particular with programs! Ms Anny is exactly what we were looking for and my daughter even learns spanish! Ms Anny is highly organized and responsive and also has been very accommodating when I've requested flexibility (as we were going through an adoption and a pregnancy!) She has 4 children of her own who are incredibly sweet and such wonderful role models for my daughters. I really can't say enough good things. We really lucked out!

My family has had a fantastic experience with Goddard Rockville's infant daycare (4 months in)…read more There are many days when I walk into the infant room and my little guy is belly laughing with the teachers. I love Goddard's use of the Tadpoles app where I get daily pictures and updates about sleep and activities like the babies going for a ride outside in the buggy, playing with bubbles, reading circle etc. I couldn't imagine better teachers, there are two for the six infants and there's a shift change midday. They're all extremely capable and work a lot to help develop motor skills (i.e. encourage tummy time, sitting, crawling). They care so much about the babies and clearly love their job. It's such a relief to have a safe and loving place to drop our guy off at everyday! Great care is expensive, but it's worth it for my family. Claim a spot early, we signed up about six months in advance!

The staff is wonderful and has worked so hard to make the school and the programs better and better with each passing year. They are kind and clear and I've come to really enjoy seeing their smiling faces in the morning. The teachers my two sons have had have all been amazing, unique and passionate and when my children are with them, my mind is at ease. My older son - who has recently rejoined the school for "Summer Camp" with some of his buddies - did the kindergarten program last year as a Farmer with Mr. Juan and he went into his current school so well prepared in both reading and math that he was able to focus on the other huge changes that come with switching schools. I feel so lucky that my children have been able to start their educational journeys at this amazing place. Thank you!

Management has been very good about communication and the teachers provide updates daily via the Procare app. From what I can tell, they keep the classrooms very clean and organized. There are lots of hands on activities, story time, discovery times, local field trips, and outdoor events (weather permitting). Our daughter is an only child, but she has really warmed up to her classmates, and teachers. Like any early school /daycare we've had a few incidents, it happens, but again the teachers and management were always quick to send out notices, reach out to us, and provide updates. All in all we've overall been very happy with our experiences at Georgetown Hill Apple Ridge and hope to keep our daughter there until Kindergarten.

We've seen first hand how this location gets more efficient, fun and educational year over year. My four kids started with infants, grew through toddlers, twos and threes and my school age kids spent summer session last year on campus.

They have top notch communication with parents and meet us where we are at in our busy variables lives. There've been numerous examples of above and beyond moments through the years.

They took so much care of my girls, always ready to share about statuses, progress, issues, and tips/guidance with parents! Originally we selected the school because it was just walking distance from home, but then we realized how convenient it is. it offers nutritious breakfast, lunch and snacka, have before and after care, and never close (except federal holidays)! that's critical for busy working parents!
