The classroom is quiet and calm, giving kids the best environment to learn I have come across as a parent.

Having opted for the private Kindergarten, we hate to leave and wish they would add more grade levels.

We can't say enough good things about Sidewalk's End Montessori School. Our 4yr old son has been…read morehere for 1 yr year. The family culture of the school is very warm and positive. The parents are very involved with the school and the outdoor environment, is great and green . His teachers (Mrs. Gloria and Mrs. Lyeen) are wonderful. They are dedicated, passionate and intelligent. We know our son is getting individualized attention and they are allowing him to grow at his own pace (i.e., not just at the common denominator of the class). They are cultivating and developing the whole child. We are simply amazed at how much he is learning and advancing. All while becoming a compassionate and polite individual. We always feel supported as a family. They have been great throughout the enrollment process.They are always planning activities and the children are never bored. It's an efficient and well run school. We are enrolling our 3 yr old son given how much his older brother enjoys the school.

They were all well prepared for kindergarten and made the school transition easily. My kids loved their teachers and would talk about all the neat facts, silly songs, yoga poses and fun lessons from their school day. We did the option for Soccer Shots program as well. As a parent, I appreciate the early drop off (630am!) and late pickup at 6pm. The teachers assist with specific transitions such as introducing food (directed by parents/packed lunches/snacks), potty training (kids will help each other line up), and phasing out nap time for kindergarten. We weathered through COVID - the staff and owners were clear with limits and expectations. As a healthcare worker - the school remained open and an option throughout the whole time. There is some teacher turnover, but there are also staff/teachers who have been there for years (and taught all my kids - Ms Cheryl!) . I never had any issues about staff interactions with the children. Ms Anand (owner) is available on site and also responded via email quickly. She knew all the kids names and was always pleasant.

We appreciate Rocky Mountain Classical Academy Preschool because they view their program as a…read moreschool, rather than a daycare or merely babysitting. We have noticed a learning growth in our child. At home, our son will start randomly singing or telling us about what he's learned from school. It has helped him to do things by himself. The teachers care about each child having a great day. They accept each student at their level and teach them according to their speed, which is critically important to provide a positive first experience with school. The teachers also are great about communicating and working with us. They send pictures of our kids learning and enjoying themselves. Our other children attend the elementary school, and so we enrolled our son into their new preschool with confidence, knowing that they would produce a facility with high standards and excellence. The school has met our expectations and we will continue to have our son attend their facility. Thank you Rocky Mountain Preschool!

I was very impressed with the philosophy of The Learning Center, their curriculum and the facility…read more It was higher priced but the options for childcare are very limited in Colorado Springs. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed in their care for my 2 year old. He would be brought to me with a poopy diaper, dried snot on his face, extremely hungry and thirsty. They were documenting that he was eating 100% of his meals and snacks but he came home famished. They then admitted that they just mark in the computer that all the kids are 100% of their meals. They were going through 35 diapers a week and he was only there 35 hours a week. I started sending 4 diapers a day, then suddenly the same 4 diapers would come home in his bag each day. One time he came home with diapers that were not our brand. The turnover was unacceptable. They were on their 4th director in 1.5 years. The teachers came and went weekly. I never even met my son's teachers. If you wanted to talk to the teacher, you had to make an appointment and then they'd see if they could get classroom coverage for a 5 minute meeting. There was absolutely no communication with the teachers. Any communication was 3rd party through the director. When we started there we were on the 4th page of the sign in log. 3 months later, when we left we were on the 1st page. A lot of families came and went. Owner was not available as he said he would be.

These last 3 years have truly shown what a parent or caregiver should expect out of a daycare. Honestly, calling it a daycare doesn't seem adequate, this has become a family! My daughter has learned so much! Some Spanish, sign language, a devout interest in books and reading, writing, and her social skills are advanced beyond what I'd expect for a 5 year old. The preschool curriculum has been such a blessing in preparing her for Kindergarten and I have no doubt that she will be academically at or above where she needs to be. The summer camp experience has also been amazing! There were 2 or 3 field trips a week, a water day every Wednesday, themed days for dress up and decorations, ice cream trucks... For Easter and Halloween there are facility events for the kids, and at Christmas Santa and reindeer come to visit! The staff are all helpful, patient, thoughtful, supportive and as invested in your kid's development as you. It's clear that the teachers working here are in it for the right reasons. If you are considering this center for your littles I cannot recommend them highly enough! Get on the waitlist, call and check for availability... whatever it takes to get your kiddo in here is worth all the effort you may have to put into it! Any waitlist is proof of the commitment of the families attending! We're so excited to move into school but so sad to say goodbye to our YSA family.

My family knows all too well about how other childcare facilities are, and how horribly they treat their staff and the kids. This is definitely not one of them. There is no stress in my family that comes from this child care facility, whereas there was daily stress when my family was part of other facilities that were part of the Department of Defense. If you want your family to be part of a horrible organization then please go to the facilities on Ft Carson. If you want your family to feel welcomed and cared for then do not hesitate to be a part of Lionheart. We have had nothing but outstanding leadership and direction from the staff there. I would not hesitate to have my family be part of this great organization, as it was the best decision that we ever made.
