“More Than a Review: Our Heartfelt Gratitude to Stars Montessori As we prepare to transition our daughter to elementary school, it’s bittersweet to say goodbye to this wonderful community that has nurtured her growth so profoundly.
From the moment we reached out, Miss Susan welcomed us with warmth and insightful information, while Miss Pennie, the principal, responded to our daily needs with professionalism and care. Their dedication, patience, and commitment have consistently impressed us.
Our daughter spent her first four years mostly at home, with limited interaction with other children, which put her a bit behind in social skills and speech. The incredible team at Stars Montessori embraced her from the start, making her feel welcomed and excited about going to school each day. Her class, especially her teacher, Miss Soghra, and Miss Jannette showed remarkable patience and consistency. It’s truly amazing how she has flourished under their care in just one year. Her progress in math and reading has been nothing short of exceptional.
Our daughter’s reading skills continue to astound us and those around her. She reads everything in sight, and her love for learning reflects the nurturing environment at Stars Montessori. Her enthusiasm for education is a testament to the school’s supportive atmosphere.
We are immensely proud of her and of our choice to enroll her in this remarkable school. Her advancement exemplifies the strength of the Montessori system and the extraordinary dedication of the entire team. The involvement of the leadership and the wholehearted commitment of the staff have been absolutely pivotal in her development.
Whenever we get the chance, we share our daughter's achievements and our wonderful experiences at Stars Montessori with others. Thank you, Miss Pennie, Miss Susan, Miss Soghra, Miss Janette, and everyone on the team who has contributed to our daughter’s education. You have created a very happy and confident little girl ready to take on elementary school, and a family deeply appreciative of your hard work and dedication! Thank you”

“Mrs. Allison watched my 11 year old son when he was 2-4. She was amazing with him! Always singing and doing fun hands on activities the kiddos love. He still had fond memories of her being his teacher.”

“I am a Grandfather who had 2 of my grandkids at Childrens Paradise Vale Terrace site. Best experience I've ever had with a day care. I know their story and how they began. I've stayed connected to them even after the kids went to kindergarten. Their teachers are experienced and caring. And they communicate well with the family too. They're very well run and their sites are always clean and safe. I highly recommend for all your childrens needs before starting kindergarten. Highly Recommend !!!!”

“I would like to take a moment to say thank you. To all the dedicated and loving staff and teachers at melrose site… I love you all for nurturing and loving my babies when I was not able to. Miss Zandria lily talks about you all the time thank you for giving her extra love ❤️”

“The staff is very caring with my daughter and I feel that she is safe and well cared for here. The facility is always clean and organized. I can tell everyone works really hard to create the best environment for the babies and kids. I’ve been bringing my daughter there for over a year since she turned one. Everything has been great!”

“Great place! My Grandson has been attending since February of 2022! Teachers are wonderful director and office manager are kind and loving. My Grandson cries when we pick him up he loves being with his friends and teachers! That right there gives his parents and me piece of mind he is in great hands!”

“Our son was cared for, nurtured and educated at this school since he was 6 months old. The staff at La Petite went out of their way to make sure he was given enriching and fun activities to help him develop. The teachers were knowledgeable and genuinely cared for our son. Unfortunately, changes in my husband's work required us to look for a school closer to our home. The Director and Teachers were heartbroken when we told them we had to move to a different school. They became a second family to us. I always knew my son was cared for, simulated and kept happy. They also make sure to send plenty of pictures throughout the day to put parents at ease. We had a 10/10 experience with La Petite Academy of Vista!!”

“The best place to send your littles. Structured and unstructured play/learning with staff who care. I love that my daughter was able to be outside more than inside. I love that she had storytime and nature walks. I love this school.”

“What a wonderful, loving and rich program. Our children have been attending Sanderling since Early Childhood (preschool) and are currently in 2nd (with Ms. Evi) and 4th (Ms. Lisa). Sanderling truly focuses on each individual child and ensures the WHOLE child is treated with love and respect. The school community is so supportive and engaged and the teachers are truly amazing. We are beyond grateful for the experience our children receive. My kids look forward to going to school every day, and their love of learning is inspiring. I credit this love of school and learning to the love and respect that they receive from each of their teachers.”

“My son attends this daycare center & all staff are so amazing! We love love Ms Angela and Ms Jasmine so much!! Every staff has such great smiles and loves working with all the children. My son experience a red/ purple color on his arms and legs and immediately the entire staff did all what was needed to do to make sure my son was okay. I felt comfortable knowing the staff took every precaution to make sure my bubba boy was good. Thank you Amazing job knowing my son is being watch & taken care of so well!! The Vertrees/Davies family 1000% recommend!!”
