"If you are looking for a school that focuses on meeting your child where they need to be met, Mountain Laurel Waldorf School is that school. The teachers are fully-vested in your child's school experience. It's never about testing, it's about finding the fullest potential in each child in a compassionate, nonjudgmental way. The early childhood program at Mountain Laurel is amazing. I put my four children through this program -- starting with their parent-tot program -- and I was continually amazed at how much the teacher and teacher's assistant put into their work with the kids on a daily basis. The classrooms are beautiful, the commitment to surround the kids with only things that spark the imagination and the focus on outdoor play (they go outside almost every single day!) is truly a wonderful thing to observe. My kids come home every single day with bright eyes and bright smiles. It's a wonderful school with a dedicated staff in the heart of New Paltz. Great alternative to the public school system. Added bonus: they are extremely generous with financial aid so if you think you may be priced out of this school, you could be wrong!"

"I feel like it's important to share this feedback to help bring awareness. My experience with this aftercare program was disappointing due to the lack of professionalism and respect from the director. My son was part of the aftercare program, and after one instance of miscommunication regarding his pickup (which was a custody-related issue), the director called me, yelling and blaming me for the situation. She then refused to continue picking him up without prior notice, forcing me to find alternate care the next day without issuing any refund. While the program may work for those in good standing with the staff, it seems there is little understanding or flexibility when things don’t go perfectly. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this program based on my experience."

"I’ve had my oldest son attend this daycare as early as 6 weeks old and have had a great experience overall. As a new mom I learned a lot from the staff there and really appreciate them all."

"We consider ourselves privileged to have got a spot here last minute. Wind Rose Montessori is THE cream of the crop. They value child led play, and promote independence. Half the day is spent in and around Discovery park (hello great outdoors!), half the day inside. The facilities (play space, materials etc) are thoughtfully designed. Communication is also great; we are always kept in the loop through Slack app and also during drop off pick up. But most importantly, the teachers are absolutely fantastic, working on the students' behavioral/emotional growth, providing them with nurturing care and overall a well rounded, age appropriate education. They also periodically send out parent education materials, as well as giving individualized guidance whenever we need it. Our toddler transformed in the short span of 3 months she's been going to Wind Rose and we couldn't be more grateful."
