Parent Reviews
We started daycare when our twins were 18 months old, and the transition was tough at first. Ms. Aruna, the head/director, is truly the best—she is caring, supportive, and always attentive to both the children and parents. Along with Ms. Haney, Ms. Jasthi, Ms. Sabita, and the rest of the classroom teachers, she has helped us build a strong sense of trust. They offer a great variety of play and activities, make sure the kids eat well, and let parents know if a child is not eating properly. They genuinely listen to parents’ needs and often guide us on what to do next when we have questions. I personally highly recommend Alphabet Montessori, especially if you are starting daycare for the first time. The care, communication, and trust they provide make a big difference for parents.
Krutika, thank you so much for your thoughtful review and kind recommendation! We truly appreciate the trust you have placed in Alphabets Montessori School, especially during your twins' transition into daycare. We are delighted to know that you value our communication, care, and commitment to supporting each child's growth and well-being. Your kind words mean a lot to our leadership and entire teaching team. We are grateful to have your family as part of our AMS family!
We moved our daughter to Alphabets after pulling her from her previous daycare and we could not be more pleased. Aruna, the head of the school is the warmest, kindest woman with a heart and true love for children that can be felt right away by sitting down with her. She eased my anxiety when my daughter started in April and has been fabulous since... she listens and welcomes feedback, follows up and follows through. We cannot say enough good things about her. After Aruna, you're met with such a special group of women, the teachers! Santhi, Krishna and Sabita just to name a few... again, the kindest most special women that have a passion for children and their growing brains! We have never felt so at ease with child care. Our daughter gets so excited when she sees her teacher Santhi each day, they really love each other! Not to mention, the amount of learning that takes place... they prioritize time outside and spend intentional time teaching the children new things. This is a very special place, we are so grateful!
Mary, thank you so much for your thoughtful and heartfelt review! We are truly grateful for the trust you have placed in Alphabets Montessori School. It means so much to know that your daughter feels happy, comfortable, and excited to come to school each day. Your kind words are greatly appreciated by our leadership and entire teaching team. We take great pride in creating a nurturing environment where children feel loved, confident, and excited to learn. We are so happy to have your family as part of our AMS family!
My children have attended this incredible Montessori daycare since they were just 4 months old, and one is now preparing to graduate. I truly can’t speak highly enough about the caring staff and the thoughtfully designed, child-centered program they’ve created. The teachers have helped instill in my children a genuine love of learning, along with values like kindness, friendship, and respect for the world around them. It’s been amazing to watch their growth in such a nurturing environment. One thing that really stands out is the consistency of the staff—unlike many daycares, there’s very little turnover, which speaks volumes about the positive culture here. The director is also incredibly patient and responsive, always working collaboratively with parents when any concerns come up. I feel so fortunate to have found a place filled with such dedicated, compassionate people. It’s clear every day just how much this school and its teachers have cared for and supported my children.
Thank you so much for your kind and heartfelt review. It truly means a lot to us to have been part of your children’s journey from infancy through graduation. Watching them grow, learn, and develop a love for learning has been incredibly special for our entire team. We’re grateful for your trust over the years and for recognizing the dedication of our teachers and the consistency of our staff. Creating a nurturing, respectful, and engaging environment for every child is always our goal, and it’s wonderful to hear that reflected in your experience. Thank you again for being a valued part of our Alphabets Montessori School family. We wish your graduating child all the very best in their next adventure!
