My son started attending Pearl Montessori Daycare in January 2025, and he absolutely loved it from…read moreday one. He was with Ms. D, who quickly became one of his favorite people -- he mentioned her name at home all the time! When he first started, he was barely talking, and now he can't stop chatting and expressing himself. He recently graduated to a new school, and his new teacher immediately noticed how well-prepared he was. She even commented that she could tell his previous teacher had done an excellent job with circle time and early learning activities. I also appreciate how Ms. Kelly thoughtfully transformed the school this year to a more authentic Montessori environment -- updating the furniture, toys, and curriculum. The school organizes fun and engaging activities throughout the year, which my son always enjoyed. Another thing I truly value is the school's excellent communication. The teachers regularly share photos of the children's daily activities -- as a working parent, it always makes my day to see what my little one is doing while I'm on break. They are also very prompt and transparent when reporting any accidents, clearly explaining what happened, what steps were taken, and how my son was doing afterward. I also love that students wear uniforms, which gives a real sense of belonging and community. I've even met other Pearl parents outside of school (randomly like at the YMCA), and we all share the same sentiment -- Pearl Montessori is a wonderful place for our kids to grow. Even though we've graduated from Pearl, Ms. D and Ms. Kelly, as my son's very first teachers, will always hold a special place in his little heart (and ours).

We frequently get pictures of the various hands-on activities our child does throughout his week through the school app, not to mention the school is affordable and very clean. There is structure throughout the day, and the school also has large outside play areas. Our son has learned his letters and sounds here, and also received consistent support during potty training while attending here. We cannot recommend this school enough as it's a very safe, nurturing, and wonderful learning environment.

My son is extremely blessed to have such hard-working, qualified, attentive, steadfast teachers who go above and beyond to make sure my son gets what he needs, especially with his special medical conditions. Communication is always consistent with parents and teachers, no matter what issue/information may come up. This pre-school uses the SchoolStatus Connect App, which is a great communication tool that the teachers utilize in order to keep parents informed, engaged, and present. I highly recommend this daycare for any prospective parents looking for a faith-based, down-to-earth school that loves and cares for their children!

Some key things I'd like to mention: - This is a Faith based school, we are so appreciative our little one is learning about Jesus on the daily. - Every week, his teachers have a new lesson plan. He has been learning so much & gets to do a STEM/ fun science activity every week! - The communication is great. With both the teachers & directors. In addition, The directors Jackie & Jill communicate about events happening at the school (which brings me to my final key point.) - The community events here are what puts this school on top. They are always getting involved with the community, even hosting programs for Christmas, etc. These are just a few of the many great things I have to say about Adventure Days. All the teachers at this school know my son & treat us like family. I'm so grateful for everything this school has done for us in this season.

My daughter feels supported, confident, and happy there. We feel incredibly lucky to have found Ms. Mary. She is caring, thoughtful, and truly the best. I can't recommend her daycare highly enough.

Ms. Mary is one of the kindest, most nurturing people you could hope to care for your child.

She's confident, well-prepared, and socially ready for school, and we credit so much of that to the solid foundation Ms. Mary provided. Her teaching ethics are strong, thoughtful, and always centered on what's best for each child's development. We are forever grateful for the role she played in our daughter's early years and wholeheartedly recommend Ms. Mary to any family looking for a safe, loving, and enriching environment for their little ones.

Plus, the chance for socializing and extra activities--like field trips and group classes--is fantastic. My child has made friends and had experiences that really add to their education. If you're into the idea of homeschooling but want some solid support and community, I definitely recommend giving them a look. We're so grateful to be part of this wonderful school!

The teachers, directors, and support staff love Annie like she' their own and that philosophy is felt to the core.

Beyond that, they've also helped me build my own confidence as a parent, which has only strengthened and supported my connection with Annie. We'll greatly miss SEA and will forever be part of the family. 10/10 recommend!!

They are very mindful which classroom each child is in depending on their developmental milestones. They will move them up when the child is ready and always are willing to have a conversation about it if a parent feels differently about anything. They are amazing at keeping up with healthcare recommendations, especially enforcing vaccination, which I greatly appreciate in this era. They are very transparent about any infectious outbreaks that are happening so that parents are aware for each individual classroom to be on the lookout for symptoms in their own child. They use dojo to communicate so that we can see pictures and videos of all of the great learning and fun that our children are having as well as to send messages to the parents. They celebrate all of the national and international holidays, which makes this daycare, especially culturally inclusive. I love the diversity of the teachers and the children, building a wonderful social foundation for my children to experience while they have been here from three months all the way through five years of age.

The…read moredirector truly embraces the Montessori concept and practice and the staff, many who have been there for years and years, are warm, welcoming, patient, caring and passionate. Everyone takes the safety and security of the children very seriously, and I feel confident that my children are very well cared for when they're there. If there are any behavioral concerns with children, the staff are quick to have open and constructive communication with the parents/family to ensure the child(ren) is/are supported in their needs moving forward. They plan great activities and experiences for the kids that foster learning and growth I also love that hey have a cook who provides freshly made lunch to all the kiddos. We first started at MSKM in Jan 2022 with our oldest son when he had just turned 2. Being a covid baby, we really wanted him to get socialized and establish good routines, all while learning and growing. He attended MSKM until Aug 2024 when he started UTK. Our second son currently attends MSKM and has been there for over 2 years (started when he was 6 months old). We have had experiences in all stages of classrooms and with all the teachers, and I have had no complaints. The growth and advancements my younger son has made while attending MSKM would not have happened if it wasn't for the support and attention of the staff. I cannot recommend MSKM enough and I am beyond thankful for the care and support that the entire staff have given my children.

We never thought we'd be writing this review…read more We were the kind of CMP parents who showed up, got involved, and truly believed in the school. We helped advocate for the return of their kindergarten program and loved sharing how magical it felt -- the chickens, the nature-based learning, and the emotional intelligence philosophy. For a while, it really was everything we wanted. But then something changed. When a serious safety concern arose, we found ourselves feeling that the school's response didn't match the seriousness of what we shared. We felt like the focus shifted more toward minimizing the situation and maintaining appearances, rather than directly addressing the concern or making sure our child was fully supported and safe. We left feeling unheard and unsure that the school was willing to prioritize our child's well-being over maintaining a perfect image. We had expected collaboration and care. Instead, we felt isolated, with no clear communication or plan of action to address what happened. We're not sharing this out of anger or bitterness -- we're sharing it because we believe parents deserve to know how it felt when things didn't align with the promises we once believed in. CMP may look wonderful on the outside. And for many, it may be. But we learned the hard way that the true test of a school's values is how they respond when something goes wrong. If you're considering this school, ask them the hard questions. Make sure you're fully comfortable with the answers -- and that they align with how you expect your child to be cared for and protected. We wish we had been given that chance.
