I have used this provider for more than 6 months

my child has attended this daycare and was crying for the first couple of months then stopped for a little bit. Thank it started again and started to become angry. Honestly, there is no communication with the parents. When u ask what the child did very broad explanation. Parents are not allow inside to see what the child is doing or how they are interacting with other kids. Honestly, if you want your child to be a robot then send them there other look for something else. A child btw2-4 years need a loving and caring environment. This is definitely not what i thought montessori would be like.

Teachers are NOT credentialed in Montessori methods. The school somehow bribed it's way to Montessori accreditation because the school practices in ways that are far from Maria Montessori's method and missions. ONE, the school has very rigid structure that is far from Montessori creative self- learning approach. SECOND, the school has zero play time for kids as young as 4 yrs old. THIRD, the school has very little outdoor time as it didn't have a yard. FOURTH, the school blatantly discriminates: My 4yr old child has been terminated because I made a big stink about discrimination due to the fact that my child's father is middle-eastern. My child has been excluded from certain school performances on and off. Soviet style mentality of running the school. Varvara and Sasha especially monsters when it comes to children.
