The Montessori mixed age classrooms allow the children to progress as they grow. Last year my daughter would get help from the older children and now I see how proud she is to be able to help the younger ones. The teachers are amazing at guiding the children as they do their "work" of playing and learning. I love that they go outside even when the weather is not perfect. They have a large playground area and a beautiful natural environment. Once your child begins kindergarten, they have a full-day program available as well as a very popular afternoon enrichment for the kids who attend a morning half-day program. Highly recommend!

The teachers alone have been employed there for for decades and every time I walk in there, they're actively engaged with the children. Food is provided so we literally drop our kids off in the morning with no preparation needed and pick them up in the afternoon. My life is sooo much simpler! The parents at this school are actively involved in the running of this facility so you know they care. There is just no question in my mind whether or not I've placed my child in the best environment in the area.

We wanted to love Beanstalk, but unfortunately our experience has been extremely frustrating,…read moreprimarily due to reliability and communication issues. Since our twins started about ten months ago, the center has had repeated closures due to building-related problems. In that time there have been closures related to water line issues, air conditioning failures, heating problems, and most recently a gas line issue. In 2026 alone, the center has already closed eight scheduled daycare days. For working parents, daycare isn't optional. When the center closes unexpectedly this often, it creates a huge disruption and forces families to scramble for childcare or take time off work. Communication has also been a major problem. Updates are often inconsistent or unclear, and different administrators sometimes provide conflicting information. In one case, parents were told the school would be closed for a field trip. Later that decision changed, but instead of sending a clear update to all families, some parents were contacted individually while others were not. Because we never received the update, I took PTO from work unnecessarily. To be clear, the teachers themselves are kind and caring, and we appreciate the work they do with the kids. Our frustration is with the management and the building-related issues that continue to disrupt families. When you're paying thousands of dollars per month for childcare, you expect consistent operations and clear communication. Unfortunately, that has not been our experience here.

We absolutely love Malvern of Erial. Our daughter was in a previous daycare two years ago where she…read moreexperienced some challenges with adjusting and expressing herself. The teachers and the administration, unfortunately, did not have the childhood relational skillset to effectively address the challenges with positive alternatives and lessons. So, we pulled her out of that school and enrolled her in Malvern. Although it was a bit uncomfortable for her at first, in a very short time she adjusted and became very excited to attend school every day (weekdays). The administration and teachers have helped our daughter develop so much over the past two years. The dedication, commitment to teaching, and overall love, care, and safety shown by the administration and the teachers is phenomenal. The curriculum is very stimulating and encourages our daughter to process problems, stretch beyond her challenges, all while she is enjoying herself. We truly appreciate Maggie and her staff for all that they have done, and for all that they continue to do for our daughter and her friends (classmates) at Malvern of Erial. Thank you and please keep up the great work. As mentioned, it really is appreciated.
