It…read morehas been an amazing journey, and we have watched him grow, learn, and become so truly independent. The teaching method here is exceptional, blending structured learning with a beautiful approach to independence. What stands out most is the staff's incredible patience and genuine care; they create a warm, nurturing environment where children truly thrive. Beyond the amazing education our son received, the school has been an incredible partner to us as parents. They provided wonderful support and guidance to help us transition through each stage, making us feel completely connected and informed. We truly love the Guidepost community and highly recommend it to any family looking for a nurturing, high-quality preschool!

We appreciate how Tammy has been all ears and open to hearing all of our woes and concerns. Three years ago we were on the waitlist to start our first and when there was an opening the communication felt very lacking and our gut instinct was to hold out. We are very glad we did and it seems the timing worked out how it was supposed to. The communication with the guides has been great and we have the opportunity to watch our kids once a week in the classroom. We can call in anytime and check in with what our boys are up to and looking over their daily pictures gets our kids talking about their day. So far our experience has been good.

I have worked at Little Sprouts as an assistant Montessori classroom teacher and my daughter has…read morebeen a little sprout with me the past two years as well. There is no better environment in the KC area for a kid to grow and learn! :) I can't imagine a better school! Little Sprouts is led with love and a vision for whole-child care through and through. Natalie, the owner, has been the best employer I have ever worked for- kind, flexible, accommodating, and a great leader who has extensively trained for Montessori education as well as behavior management and nonviolent communication. I learn from her daily and feel like I am part of loving community at our school. All of the parents are collaborators with us teachers in the care and education of their precious children. I love each child as if they are my own. My position is unique as both a parent and a teacher, and for that I am blessed. I can't thank Natalie, and my coteachers enough for the precious and inspiring time my daughter and I have had at Little Sprouts these past two years. We're simply outgrowing the age range and are moving father away, otherwise we would stay!!

Our experience at Agape Montessori School has been nothing short of amazing. I would give 10 stars…read moreif I could. I did not have any experience with the Montessori approach prior to this daycare. We honestly started it because it was close to our house and our neighbors recommended it. But as soon as we started we loved it. The center is cleaned thoroughly from floor to toys daily (I witness it). The head teachers and assistants are very consistent in each classroom and are so passionate about each child they are working with. They have been trained with the Montessori mindset and live by it. They encourage independent play and group time, they work on manners, school work, how to be friends. They activate the brain through play and activities that are fun for the kids but they are developing so many skills. The director, office manager, and teachers are available, kind, and easy to communicate with and provide good communication. I read some (old) comments about afternoon TV time once the teachers leave. On days when it's not very nice out, the kids do watch some TV on the carpet at the end of the day but most of the time it's interactive so they are up dancing or singing with what's on. When the weather is nice they are outside playing! And yes there is a cement "alley" but it is not unsafe as that's part of life- cement driveways, cement sidewalks, cement porches. Highly recommend for quality of center, quality of staff, cleanliness, level of attentiveness to the children, and the pricing (relative to the area).

I highly recommend LSP Leawood for anyone looking for a loving, caring environment for their child!…read moreEveryone at their location is incredibly friendly, kind, and thoughtful from their program director, Emily, to my son's teachers, Autumn and Miranda. I was lucky enough to keep my son home with me until he was 6 months old and was incredibly nervous about someone else watching him when that time came. The entire staff made sure to ease all of my concerns and I couldn't imagine him being anywhere else.

But if I were you I'd pay more to go somewhere else. They are very unprofessional here. My child's teacher is dating the father of another kid in the class. I see him in the classroom not picking up his kids, just flirting with her and making plans together. My kid asked why the teacher wouldn't come to our house at night "because she goes to that other kids house all the time!" I also had to explain what METH is because he told me the teacher has a kid (he is also in the class) but not a husband because the dad "loved meth more than he loved her". So yeah. Oh, and the building is pretty worn down and my son hates the food (and he's never complained about his school or daycare lunches before).
