Everything is clean and new, the teachers are extremely attentive and send photos/updates throughout the day and they seem to genuinely care about our daughter. It is comforting to know we are leaving her in caring, capable hands. As far as costs go, they are more affordable than the larger daycare centers that have hundreds of kids in them. To top it off, it is a Spanish immersion program, so she is learning another language.

The kindertales app to follow up on your child(ren)'s day is amazing and you can even update all of the needed forms for the center through the app itself. The bond the teachers build with you is so special and with the center being as big as it is you can watch your baby grow and build so many memories at each stage. I definitely recommend this location to families looking for place to call home for their babies education and growth and long term solution for their child care needs

Love this daycare! Every teacher cares so much about their classes and students. Even teachers I…read moredidn't recognize knew my son by name! Each class has a curriculum in place where your child learns math, reading, science, art, and even other languages! My two year old son came home once and told me about kookaburras and I was absolutely floored. There are extra dance/gymnastics lessons held at Little Newtons as well, if your child is interested. Children (pre-schoolers and up) create hundreds of art projects for you to take home or put in your office. Also, compared to other childcare options in the area, this place is SO AFFORDABLE! If you have more than one child, there's a 10% discount on each additional child! I recommend this place to every parent I know, I love Little Newtons!

Have a back up plan for this Montessori school. I was so shocked by our experience that I had to…read morewait a week to calm down and write this review. When I was pregnant a year and a half ago, we toured all the Montessori schools near our home and work. We decided to enroll our son in the fall of 2015, once he was over his stranger danger/sensitive period. We hired a wonderful nanny in the meantime. She and her husband planned the birth of their own firstborn around our son's 2015 fall enrollment. Mayflower was our top pick and their toddler teacher came highly recommended by an old friend, another Montessori teacher and Children's House owner in the community. We signed up when our son was a newborn, 14 months ago, and waited. We were excited for visiting day this past month, but shocked to learn we were not actually enrolled. I'm a first time mom, but based on my own research and tours of other toddler programs, this was highly irregular, so I reached out for confirmation. The response from their director Nanci was very canned and left me stunned, "Thanks for coming to Visiting Day. Our application process is continuing and we will be making final decisions for enrollment in the next few weeks. There are many factors we take into account to make our decisions and we balance the classrooms by age and gender. You will hear from us by Friday, March 27. Thanks, Nanci Olesen Director Mayflower Early Childhood Center" Rumor has it there were only 4-7 openings for fall 2015. The visiting day we attended last week was an absolute carnival with 40 families and toddlers! I feel the number of attendees was very misleading for so few openings. I hope that this was an isolated incident. We may have fallen through the cracks since we signed up on recommendation from a Montessori teacher before the toddler program even began at Mayflower. We are still really disappointed and terribly inconvenienced by our experience. We are now scrambling to find an acceptable daycare for our happy, healthy 15 month-old boy. Every place has a year wait. Any insights or advice are most welcome! Our amazing nanny will be on maternity leave and we are really stuck!

And my child's whole class kept getting shuffled around with substitutes. The subs and temps are on their phones alot and even resorted just putting on cartoons on the school iPad to distract the kids at one point. So its not a good learning environment. My child has personally gotten hurt here multiple times and mistreated by other students. The last time he got hurt was because a piece of concrete was protruding out of the ground in the play ground outside. He cut his head and had to get checked out by a doctor immediately. They thankfully administered first aid immediately. Another student also put his stuffed animal in the toilet and other students bite him on more than one occasion. There also appears to be a lack of transparency about all of this. So I would not recommend sending your child here until they clean up their act.
