  Enrolling my kids in PCM has been the best decision I have made on my kids education.Being an international and bilingual family, we tried different Montessori, and traditional schools and the results were always dissapointing.At PCM, my oldest went straight to their amazing lower elementary program and in just one year, she learned to read, count to 1000, and perform additions while being a native spanish speaker, at the same tine, she has improved her confidence speaking in english and making friends.My youngest, that always had a tough time with school, felt super nervous starting the year, but with time he has learned to love his teachers and classmates, has done amazing with potty training and can count to 50 while being 3.As parents, we are ecstatic with their community of vibrant, diverse and international teachers and staff, everyone loves the kids, know about them, and always receive them (and us) with a smile.I can’t put more enfasis on how much I love this school and would recommend it to everyone.Si hablas español y quieres que tus hijos se desarrollen increible en ingles, esta es la escuela para ti.

  Preston Creek Montessori is the absolute best. I have been so impressed with their organization, unconditional love for their students and how much my child is learning at such a young age. The school is kept clean and tidy, the teachers are truly invested in your child, and the tuition is reasonable. Would recommend to any mom looking for a daycare that isn't corporate run - Ms. Pam and the entire staff put their heart and soul into these kids and it shows.

  We put both of our girls in Preston Creek about 5 years ago. One has graduated to 1st grade, and our youngest will be moving up to Lower Elementary in the fall. The staff is so loving and caring for all the children, it is an excellent environment for learning. We are lucky to have found a great place for our girls to start our their journey with school. Highly recommend!!

  We placed two of our sons with Preston Creek and had the immense pleasure of working with this team for three years. We were so thankful for the caring environment, supportive team, and experienced teachers who loved and cared for our boys during the time we spent here. Every member of the team knew our children by name, were invested in their well being, and helped us transition our sons from infants to active and engaged toddlers.Our children were excited to come to school, learned so much, and made wonderful friends. I highly recommend this facility and am so grateful for the education and care we received there.

  I had to wait for life to slow down to leave a proper review for the horrible experience we had with this “school”. We have a 2 year old ACTIVE boy who was in the 2’s class. We began in July and everything seemed to be going just fine. However we were asked to have a conference (from the director and owner) in October because the teacher couldn’t “handle” our son. When we had our conference we were floored to hear the reasons the teacher couldn’t handle our son. It all sounded like normal 2 year old boy behaviors. We have two older sons so we are very aware of development and milestones. Not pushing his chair after eating, running around the jungle gym, not wanting to participate in circle time, having tantrums, asking for seconds at lunch were the reasons given to us on why our son was no longer welcomed at this school. We are highly educated parents and very involved as well. We couldn’t believe the lack of communication on the schools part. Basically once they decided he was too much we were made to feel he was no longer welcome which is not a feeling you want to have when entrusting your son in someone else’s care. I wanted to write this review to let others know my experience because IF you have an ACTIVE normal child they will not be able to handle your child and you’ll be left scrambling for a place to go. I used these very same reviews when making my decision to take my son from his last place (an in-home daycare that we LOVED) and it’s one of the biggest regrets I have and I don’t have many regrets in my life. So be warned. There are too many others options in this area. Signed sincerely Hendrix’s mom :) also wanted to add since leaving this horrible environment our son has THRIVED and is doing sooooo much better which makes me question how were they making him feel day to day!? Proceed with caution. And another thing. If you have to call out due to a 2 year old you shouldn’t be a teacher :) get it together! The director and owner allow the teachers to make the decisions. The problem is not the CHILD it is the teacher.

  I spoke to numerous families before enrolling, and they were all happy to share extremely positive experiences. I can vouch for our family’s personal experience that the teachers here are very warm, experienced and caring. Even the teachers who do not have my child in their classroom know who he is, and it’s evident that everyone here loves children and views each child as a unique and special individual.My child cried a lot during drop off at his previous school, but here the transition has been so smooth, and I feel that has to do with how orderly things are and how loving the staff are. Our child has developed a special bond with their teacher Ms. Maria, and we are so thankful for that. We take comfort in knowing that the directors take good care of their teachers, and as such the teachers have been working at Preston Creek for a long time.

  Our family recently transferred to PC Montessori in July 2023 and we have been very happy with the level of care that our kiddos have received so far. Every day, Ms. Pam and Ms Sayeeda are there to greet parents and family that come through the door. The teachers are amazing at being an extension of that welcoming environment. The building itself is extremely clean and well-maintained. It is easy to see that the school is run in a orderly and consistent manner and we take comfort in knowing that many of the teachers and staff have been a part of PCM for a very long time.

  I would highly recommend PCM, good school with amazing teachers and staff. My son started going to this school just after few weeks of shifting to USA and as his first school the amount of care and love he was given by all his teachers, Ms PAM and Ms Sayyeda was commendable. He has grown a lot in terms of personally and academically. I would really like to thank each and every teacher who helped him throughout his journey in PCM.

  PCM is such a loving place that strives to have all their students at a higher education level! My oldest graduated and this is his first year in Kindergarten and his new teacher is, in her words, "blown away" by what my child knows. I must say he is so advanced in reading and writing. He reads chapter books at age 5. I owe that to Mrs. Meera for all her hard dedication towards challenging her students to exceed in academics. She and all the teachers I have met, love our children beyond imagination. I am so grateful to have found this hidden gem. I also have a 22 month old who has been there since he was 4 months old. This was my first time trusting my infant to someone else and I was hesitant, as most of us parents are, but I quickly learned how much care and love these little babies receive. I am so impressed by all the new things he learns as such a young age. I am extremely thankful for all the teachers and staff. Special thanks to Ms. Pam, Ms. Sayyeda, Mrs. Meera, Ms. Tomeka, Ms. Arelys, Ms. Bo, Ms. Sultana, Ms. Ari, Ms. Saima, Ms. Gloria for all the love you have shown my kiddos.

  Preston Creek Montessori is amazing overall! They provide a rich learning environment and create a team & family space. I love how much my child has learned a lot from being there since he turned 1 & a half yrs old. My son is now 3 & a half and has became even more independent as well as more interested to learn the Montessori way of teaching.The staff is amazing and I appreciate the owner/ executive directors Ms. Pam and the center director Ms. Sayyeda for always standing behind their brand and vision for children as well as families!If you’re looking for a team effort School where we A’s parent’s do our part at home and incorporate what is being taught at Preston creek you’ll definitely not be disappointed. If you’re a parent that wants the best educational experience, and overall great independent person your child will definitely be ahead of their milestones when they get to elementary school & overall prepared for life when enrolled here. You don’t find many early learning schools that are willing to work truly with the parents and provide so much support for their child’s individual goals such as speech or occupational therapy service & allow you to find your own OT to come into the school and provide support for your child. You will not be disappointed with whatever teacher your child is with because Ms. Pam and Ms. Sayyeda hand picked their very best! The whole school is amazing & thank you very much Preston Creek family for being amazingly you and I dividing the very best services to my child. I appreciate you all for working with me even with my personal goals that I have for my son and I can truly say it takes a village to raise a strong independent child.?❤️

  We LOVE Preston Creek Montessori! After having our first son we were nervous about finding a daycare that was safe, loving and somewhere he would be happy at. As a first-time mom, you’re not exactly sure where to go and what to look for but when you find the right place you know it. Preston Creek was the right place for our family. I toured many other daycares prior to my tour with Mrs. Pam and none of the others compared. When I walked in, I was greeted with a smile from her staff and Mrs. Pam. They were so warm and welcoming, and the school was beautiful. The natural lighting, colorful walls, and cleanliness of the facility was overall very inviting. I learned that Mrs. Pam has owned daycares for over 30 plus years. One thing she mentioned that felt reassuring was that she has staff members that have been with her for decades. This shows that she cares about her staff and treats them well. The staff is fantastic! Mrs. Soltana in the infant room has been with Mrs. Pam for 20 years. The first day of drop off is so hard and as I watched Mrs. Soltana caring for the babies it made me feel less anxious. She was sweet patient, and she gave them so much love, I knew my son was in good hands. When my son transitioned to Miss. Bo’s class in infant room b, she really focused on his motor skills. He learned to crawl, walk, eat solids, and say Mama and Dada! It was such a fun time and Miss. Bo was wonderful. My son is currently in Mrs. Tamika’s class, the toddler class, and I couldn’t be happier with his language development. He is 18 months and knows his shapes, ABC’s, can count to 20 and loves to read. Mrs. Tamika also has 20 years with Mrs. Pam and you her experience shows when you watch her. She has all of those kids sitting calmly at the table at breakfast, they all push their chairs in before they play, and she has full control of the classroom while teaching. It’s quite impressive. With all that said, I highly recommend Preston Creek Montessori. If you’re debating it, make an appointment and take a tour. I promise they won’t let you down.

  I feel so lucky to have found this school for my son. He has been there for three years, and we can’t be happier. The academics, activities, food, teachers, everything is just amazing. When I drop my son at the school, I know he will be taken care of, be having fun and learning. The owner Ms. Pam has created this amazing environment and is really good at finding the best teachers for the school. I think this is the best Montessori school ever.

  In my opinion PCM is a FANTASTIC school for early childhood education. All PCM teachers faithfully follow montessori teaching techniques and provide close attention to 360 degree development of an individual kid. My kid has learnt a lot here under constant care of Ms. Meera. We have seen accelerated growth in our kid's intellectual, social and emotional abilities. We just love this school, and for the bonus- Ms. Carmen cooks very healthy and nutritious food. Thank you so much Ms. Pam, Ms. Sayyeda and PCM's outstanding staff for creating such a clean, nourishing, caring and loving environment for the kids.

  I am so happy with Preston Creek Montessori. Both of my boys went there since they were 6 months old and have learned so much. The teachers and staff are amazing. Definitely a great place.
