I'm pretty sure that's not an official Montessori technique? Which I was never told during the meeting in which we were asked to leave the school. Hmm, My heart is broken this school feels it's okay to humiliate and shame children. If this is how the "Head of the School" behaves I can only imagine what the limbs are up to. It's unfortunate this is what he's going to remember about all the time he had at your school.

He excelled in academics. He was reading before 5 and after the Kinder program here, he was far ahead of other children his age. (which we did not realize until 1st grade). The director helped us locate schools with programs fitting for his GT level. He is wonderful in every aspect, from staying in touch with us and offering suggestions even after we were no longer attending the school. His teachers were amazing, patient and learned how he individually learned. They are a true Montessori school and not a glorified daycare. We miss everyone there truly and wish they had options thru high school. Our son was his best self when attending school here. They are a family business with professionalism beyond.

Our oldest completed the primary program with Ms. Suba and Ms. Meena, who were absolutely fantastic. He transitioned smoothly into first grade at our local public elementary school, where he is thriving. Our youngest has been with Ms. Amanda, along with Ms. Antonette and Ms. Carrington, for two years and has gained remarkable independence and confidence. Thanks to their Montessori education at West Montessori, both of our children have become independent thinkers and risk-takers. It truly is a Montessori environment where the teachers are experts in their field. The leadership is equally impressive; the director, Ms. McAnelly, and the assistant director, Ms. Nasrin, are kind, professional, and understanding. With only four classrooms, the school feels like one big family. The fact that every staff member knows us personally creates a deep sense of safety and belonging, which has always been our top priority. What makes West Montessori special for our family: Family & Community Involvement: The school goes above and beyond to keep parents involved through special monthly traditions. We've cherished the "Mommy dates," "Daddy dates," and "Grandparent dates" for holidays like Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's Day, and even Rodeo Day. These events make us feel like active participants in our children's school life. Global Awareness & Public Speaking: We love how the curriculum embraces and celebrates diverse cultures. My oldest would come home eager to share the traditions of Diwali or the Lunar New Year. A true highlight was the kindergarten graduation, where every child gave a speech about a particular country they had studied. It was incredible to see that level of confidence and global knowledge at such a young age. Enrichment & On-Site Services: Beyond the classroom, they offer a fantastic range of activities such as Soccer Shots, yoga, dance, Spanish, cooking classes, and more. It is also incredibly convenient and supportive that they allow on-site speech therapy for children who need that extra bit of help. We feel very fortunate to be part of this school. If you're looking for a caring, expert-led, close-knit community for your children, we highly recommend West Montessori!

Now that we're considering child care this one automatically came to mind. We toured this past Saturday right after touring Katy Kids. First impression - Wow! They have several buses, covered parking, shaded playgrounds, a splash pad and it looks extremely clean and professional the moment you step inside. The lobby staff was very welcoming when we arrived for our appointment. We signed in and Idalis the Education Director came to greet us. I liked how she interacted with CJ and her level of patience while he was running all over the place. She showed us around the center and gave us a great overview of the enrollment process, schedule, weekly/ monthly activities, cafeteria, classrooms, teachers and interactive systems in place. My son REALLY loved the science/math lab. She was shocked he already knows his planets has started reading. Look, I was impressed and honestly I don't impress easily. I mean they have a full time cook/chef and full kitchen! She took her time and answered every question I had. She completely gave us the reassurance we needed. As a parent - that's pivotal. I can not over state that enough. I just want my son to be safe and thrive. Lastly, we discussed pricing. Surprisingly , it was less expensive than I thought. Although it's twice what we paid our private baby sitter weekly and more expensive than the previous option down the street I can certainly see where it goes and confidently say it appears to be worth it. Plus educators and vets get a discount so that's cool ! Once you see how they are structured you're going to want the best for you little one. I called one other option nearby on Longenbaugh but the price was $25 more a week and honestly I can't see it getting any better than Ivy Kids.

Communication at this place is the thing that irks me most, if there is one thing that really gets me upset is when people have poor communication skills. On today 1/14/2026 I had an altercation with a teacher. Mind you prior to my son switching to this woman class I had bad vibes about her as she is a room monitor that I have never seen smile in the hallways and she seems to be in a bad mood. If you don't want to work with kids get another job. I hate that. Anyways my son is developmentally delayed. So although he is potty trained he tends to have accidents every now and again. They transitioned my child to another class I thought this was based on learning as I was never informed the child had to be fully potty trained and no accidents. I've Spoken to the teacher and she didn't mention that either, on Wednesday when I dropped off my son I even confirmed he had just used the restroom and he had on a fresh pull up/w underwear. She said okay. On Thursday my older son took him in to school, by this time my son had been in the class 3 days so far...I send my son in to take him to class and my son comes back out with him. He says the teacher says that he must be wearing underwear only, shocking because I was just there yesterday and the teacher never said that to me. I go inside and I can already feel her sense of attitude. I tell her I can bring extra pull ups or underwear in case he has an accident and this person looks at me and says who would help him change into the new underwear as we don't provide that type of assistance in this class. This is a whole daycare... even elementary schools kids have accidents. At this point I'm super irritated because of her passive aggressive attitude and basically her saying if my son would have an accident there would be no assistance in being changed. My thing is even kids at that age don't wipe or sometime was their hands wells so you don't offer assistance to these little kids. I then asked her not to single my child out by having him returned to the car and that she could have requested I come in and we could have had the conversation or called me. But of course she went snazzy and said "I didn't single your son out." but that's exactly what you did by removing him from the class. Then when I attempted to communicate do she just brushed me off like whatever and well I'm not proud but I did in fact go off. The teachers name is Ms.Niajah... also normally love Ms PaMona but I didn't like that her employee wasn't checked for lack of communication, her rude comment about who would help him if he did have an accident and her blatant passive aggressive attitude. if you can't communicate effectively there is no way you should be running a classroom and to the teacher fix your attitude or find a new place to work. I'm tired of people working in places like this just for a paycheck but really you aren't even a people person. I interviewedother daycares now because they said I did cuss and there were students around. Which I am deeply sorry for, but it's my child and when you have an attitude about my child or I see you being mean spirited against my child I'm not going to just sit there and say nothing. It's a schools job to effectively communicate and even Ms. PaMona said they dropped the ball with communication yet I'm the problem.

It's clear that feedback is always mutually beneficial, leading to the best possible experience for my children. When I have had concerns, they have been typically addressed with thoughtfulness and care. If I feel there is an issue, the staff is quick to correct, and get to the root problem. The one area I could see for improvement would be around daily photo consistency. There are some days where the photos are flowing in, and others leaving us wondering what our children did for the day. It's nice to pair our conversations with them to photo proof. I would love to see more frequent daily photos so I can get a better, more consistent glimpse into my children's day and see their activities. I understand the staff is busy, and I want to emphasize that I'm looking for a smooth, efficient way to update this without it becoming an annoyance or a significant burden on their daily routine.

I must say that would have been a major loss on our end! This daycare is AMAZING and it's been nearly a year since they have started attending. With COVID it's been kind of difficult to know what my 3year old is learning (and they're working on the best solution possible), so I try dabble here and there with different things to see where he is educationally. One night I pulled out a book to read to teach him sight words and found out I was completely behind! The kid read the entire booklet to me by himself (it was small but so not the point lol). Their teachers are amazing, caring, and not just there to babysit. My children never cry when I drop them off actually my older son has cried a few times because he didn't want to leave and he's actually a mommy's baby so that says a lot! I could not be more happy with this daycare facility and it feels great not having to worry about my child's well-being.

I also now have a 8 year old(as of today), and as well they have always taken care of him since he has been there. He is currently doing virtual learning from his elementary here, and the staff helps SO much with his school since i cant be there with him. They go above and beyond, and even the teachers back at the elementary can tell how much they do for him just by on zoom meetings. I honestly don't know where my family would be without having the Goddard school. And most props to the owner Sarah, for being the most involved, caring person there. I am positive the Goddard is the way it is, because of her being such a great leader. I give the Goddard a 100, not a 10 =).
