Our son was enrolled in the Wave-riders 1&2 program with Miss Avery and it was one of his highlights of summer. He learned so much, and he always looked forward to the next time we would get to see her and learn more. Miss Avery is incredibly patient, kind, and encouraging to all of the kids in her class. We are so thankful to have had such a positive experience and an amazing teacher to learn from during our time at Mountain Kids.

This school lacks proper training, support, and resources to help children with any sort of…read moreemotional disability. Their handbook states their commitment to working with each child and helping them succeed. However, if your child needs any sort of special attention or needs accommodations for a disability this school has no problem throwing your child out without warning or resources. This happened to at least two children this year and has proven to be systemic practice. Overpriced and unreliable we missed many days early in the year due to short staffing and no one to fill in. I think this school has good intentions but doesn't uphold their own values and promises to children or their families.

One of the things I most appreciate about Treehouse Montessori is the sense of community. It's a…read moresmaller school which comes with a more authentic, personal connection between families and with the staff. I feel like they genuinely care for all the kids who attend. We've attended larger daycare centers in the past where the owner sat at the front desk and didn't greet parents or kids when we walked in each morning. At Treehouse, it feels like they genuinely care about connection and fostering our son's development in a nurturing environment.

This licensed in-home preschool is fantastic! By using a mix of Reggio, Waldorf, and Montessori…read moreprinciples, Kelly has combined her University and real world training to create an environment scientifically proven to cater to how 3-6 year olds learn best. These early years are more critical to a person's brain development than any other time in their life, so picking the best possible preschool I could afford was important to me. This is the best bang for the buck in town! My children both thrived here. Kelly respects each child and really listens to them. She asks leading questions to empower them to explore and make their own discoveries. Because of small class sizes and her dedication to quality, she can update the daily provocations based on the children's interests and individual progress. She takes pictures daily, so you'll know what your kiddo is working on. Kidtooia is environmentally friendly and uses open-ended toys. I also admired the kind but firm way socio-emotional growth is nurtured here. Go in for the free tour, and your child won't want to leave. :)

The children take the lead in this program, as they propose ideas, make choices, develop and test hypotheses. The teacher closely observes and listens, asks leading questions, and helps to further that exploration. Our approach is cooperative and conversational. This is a half day program, for children between 3 and 6 years of age.

It was such a warm, inviting, FUN, environment for my child's first school experience. We stayed for two years and I was beyond bummed when we had to move because my younger one missed out. The school has all sorts of fun extras - a Mother's Tea, a school carnival, lots of fun stuff for the kiddos and the tuition cannot be beat. It is hands down the best preschool in the Fort in my opinion. And for those nonreligious parents - like my husband - while the school does teach about Jesus and celebrates Christian holidays - it does so in a way that emphasizes the positive character traits and not in any way in an exclusionary way that keep many people away from some schools of faith. My husband loved the school as well. I can't say enough good things about the staff, the director, and of course the teachers. Thanks for the fantastic start, Harmony!!!

My son wasn't speaking much before attending (19 mos), and within 1 month started adopting new vocabulary and doing some sign language. Now, 4 months later, he's improved tremendously in the areas of following directions, cleaning up himself, and speaking. He's also a lot less frustrated now! Clean; really motivated and enthusiastic staff; and the kindest owner you will ever meet! Oh, and there's an indoor playground, which is so helpful during the winter months!

Our child was just kicked out of preschool last Friday with ZERO notice. I went into TLE Fort…read moreCollins to discuss a behavior plan after a rough day of not napping and acting out. I asked them if they were bringing any solutions to the table, to which they said they would just watch and record their behavior. I gave them an entire list of things that work at home. Such as, addressing them with a calm tone, redirecting, giving them jobs, etc. They responded with "we can't do those because it doesn't fit our way we do things". I left with nothing accomplished and got an email 5 minutes later saying they were terminating care for my child, immediately. I'm so frustrated and sad that they didn't even want to try with them and it feels like they're saying they are more trouble than they're worth. I'm devastated that they didn't get to say goodbye to any teachers or friends and are now being completely uprooted, which might make behaviors worse. What do I tell my child when they ask why we can't go back? I still don't understand why on earth the school decide to terminate IMMEDIATELY on a Friday evening when schools are closed on the weekend. I feel like that is the ultimate show of disrespect to us. No wonder they have been on probation by the state. My child loved 3 of their teachers like family and I'm so crushed right now. They've been asking why they can't come back to see their friends and it is absolutely gut wrenching. I gave them many solutions and they ultimately told me they couldn't do their job properly. So, if your child has sensory issues and needs a little extra love, I would not recommend TLE. I just wish they would have just given them another shot and tried some of our solutions.
