Melanie and Adonis attend this school and my 3 year old and 1 year old love it. The doctor Dominique is patient and very informative. My kids teachers are aware and helpful. They have attended a small amount of time but the impact the school has had shows at home. Send your kids here if you want people to care for their development. Thank you!

Despite experiencing some changes in recent years, including shifts in management, the teaching staff has remained stable and professional. The educators are either fully trained or in advanced training in the Montessori approach, and we feel they are doing a wonderful job. The student-to-teacher ratio is excellent, allowing for almost individual attention for each child. This is evident in how the educational program is tailored to suit the personal development of each of our twins. The facility itself is well-maintained, spacious, bright, and inviting. Initially, I viewed the proximity to the fire station as a potential disturbance, but it has become a source of excitement for the twins, who love watching and hearing the fire trucks in action. The attentiveness of the staff to our needs as parents is exceptional. They provide professional parental guidance and help us address natural challenges our children face at this age. The flexibility and professionalism of the team are also reflected in their open communication and willingness to address any issue that arises with transparency and a commitment to improvement. That said, there are challenges. While small class sizes allow for personalized attention, the limited number of students somewhat restricts opportunities for social interaction and community learning, which are key aspects of the Montessori method. However, I believe this will change over time, especially as I've noticed a recent increase in the number of new children joining. Moreover, the small setting fosters a sense of community among the parents. It has created a pleasant and inviting atmosphere that allows for open conversations, deeper connections, and a solid foundation for a supportive community - both for the children and for us as parents. we are very satisfied with the overall care and educational experience provided by the daycare - not just for our children but for us as parents as well. It's clear that this is a program that continues to grow and evolve in the right direction.

I can't say enough great things about Montessori at Edgewater! The level of care and attention they provide is exceptional. Ms. Maria creates such a warm, nurturing environment where each child feels valued and supported. I can see how much the children thrive, not just academically but emotionally and socially as well. The Montessori approach really shines here — the focus on independence, hands-on learning, and respect for each child's unique pace is truly remarkable. The facility is always clean, bright, and welcoming, and the staff is incredibly friendly and professional. It’s so reassuring to know that the children are in such a safe, positive space. I wholeheartedly recommend Montessori at Edgewater to any parent looking for a nurturing and enriching environment for their child. It’s truly the best!

The teacher for the toddler room works very well with my nephew. He loves his teacher and he loves going here every day. He always surprises me with how much he is learning.
