Reviews of Montessori Learning House (Kindergarten)

My daughter, 3, started here the beginning of this month. I am absolutely pleased with this facility 100%. She used to attend Children of America, which I was also pleased with, but there is a noticeable different between this school and her old school. I would recommend to anyone in the area without a doubt. I am a single mother and am very picky about who takes care of my child while I am away.

My daughter loves this school. She has made wonderful friends. Ms. Debbie, the owner runs a great school. The staff--both during and after are excellent. This is my daughter's first school experience and it has been a great one. She started in May 2014 with Ms.Campos; Then in the Fall of 2014 she had Ms.D'Albero. Both GREAT Teachers and their assistants/Teacher Aides were awesome as well. The entire staff is A++++++. Everyone does a good job communicating with the Parents. Excellent curriculum and they do so many fun things. An all around great learning experience. My daughter's vocabulary has increased tremendously and her sense of independence is so wonderful to see. Unfortunately we are leaving the area, so this summer will be her last summer. But I can not recommend this school enough. Definitely 5/5 stars.

My son started going to this school in September 2014. He has been getting excellent instruction from Mrs. Crandall. The curriculum and activities teach both academics as well as important life skills. The communication from the school about issues, school delays/closings, and activities very well done. There is even the usage of a smartphone app to provide details about the activities that the student participates in each day.

Great learning house and the fact that my kiddo looks forward to going there everyday and frets over weekends that its shut, speaks volumes.

I have a son who attends the school and absolutely loves it! He looks forward to going every day. I love how cheerful the atmosphere is and how loving and supportive the staff are to the children. I can't believe how much he's learned. He doen't even know he's learning because the educational materiels that they use are so much fun. I highly recommend Montessori Learning House to parents who are looking for an outstanding education for their children.

My daughter just finished her first year in the preschool class at MLH.... The facility is nice and clean...The teaching staff is excellent and Director of MHL is very friendly and down to earth person... She is always available to answer any questions or concerns you have. My daughter loves to go school and likes her teacher a lot. A special thanks you to her teacher Mrs. Crandall and her assistant under whose supervision my daughter has learned and grown during the year...

Montessori Learning House is a fantastic school. Our daughter has been enrolled in the preschool program for 2 years and loves it! She enjoys learning her letters and numbers, doing art projects. singing songs and making friends. She especially loves her teachers who are just wonderful. I truly think it is the best school in the area!

Rachel Van Horn

My daughter has had such a positive experience at MLH. I truly enjoy the fact that the same teachers are in the classroom everyday. From gym, to music, to special activities, she is excited to go to class and learn with her friends. I am amazed at how much she is learning and loves to tell me about her day. I strongly recommend this school!

Well there are many brighter side of the school brings along darker side of the package as well. They seem to be reasonable with fees but that's just a fiction because no they give for monthly fees it doesn't even add up in the end because summer camp starts just middle of the month and that you need to pay even more. You can send your child to them year after year don't surprise to hear on 5th of the month if you don't come up with payment next day you child will be kicked out !!

I have to give this school the full 5 stars but wish it could be more. I happened to find this school just from going to wawa on my way to work one day. I went for a look and right away was sold. Sophie started in the summer camp and continued to this 2014/2015 school year. I am extremely pleased with my child's preschool experience here. As many others have stated, the staff are very friendly and inviting; the school is always clean and has a very pleasing welcoming feel; & the curriculum is great. They have help my little one grow so much. She is always excited to show me what she has learned each day from letters to learning about the cycle of plant life to studying the 7 continents and she just turned 3 this year! I tell people all the time that we can't visit them until her homework is complete and most can't even believe she has homework. She has just blossomed into a well (and I mean really well) rounded little lady with their guidance and care; I mean they call her the mayor for goodness sake! I really have to thank all of the staff and the director/owner for what they have done for my child and me. Special thanks to my child's teachers Mrs. Campos and Mrs. Perdoni. I am so glad we were able to have this experience with the school. I am sooo glad I stopped in to check it out that day. Our family will miss all the staff as we are about to be relocated due to military life.Thanks for everything!

My daughter has been going to MLH for about a year and a half, in the full day preschool class. She has learned so much, everything from letters and numbers to geography and social skills. The special programs brought in are fun and provide great opportunities for the children to learn about a variety of things like fire safety, good dental habits, and how to take care of pets. I believe she is developing all the skills (and more) needed for when she begins kindergarten next year.

I have to first start by saying I love the staff at Montessori Learning House. They are so loving and caring. From the moment you walk into the school you feel so welcomed. The school is so clean and beautiful. My son has been going there for three years. He asks to go to school on Saturdays and Sundays because he loves his teachers and the school so much. My son has grown and learned so much during his years at the school. I highly recommend Montessori Learning House.

My daughter started at Montessori Learning House in September after we were dissatisfied with another preschool in the area. I cannot express my pleasure with how much Madelyn has grown and matured, not just academically, but emotionally as well in the short time since she has been with this school. Her teachers always greet us in the morning with a smile on their faces, and Madelyn is always happy to go to school each morning, something I cannot say happened at her other preschool. The facility is beautiful and colorful and the staff are warm and friendly. Madelyn is learning so much and my husband and I are extremely pleased with the quality of education she is receiving.

Having small children and working full time is a challenge. Not because of the long hours or the exhaustion, but because finding someone you trust to love and care for your children while you are working all day is tough! I went back to work when my oldest (now 5) was just 8 weeks old. I searched everywhere. Seriously, if there is a place or person that watches kids in South Brunswick, I have interviewed them and might have even sent my girls there. We were lucky and had some good situations for daycare for our daughters over the years but we were never 100% thrilled with where they were. Of course, no one is going to love and care for your child the way that you do, so you become critical of things. Well, that all changed when we found The Montessori Learning House. Debbie Starinski is amazing, she runs her school with pride and love....you can feel it! All the of staff members are so sweet with the kids. Currently, 2 of my girls go to the school. Jo is in the preschool and Franki is in the toddler program. They are learning so much! Every day they come home with new work and art projects. Franki is speaking so much too. Everyday she has more words and sentences added to her speech! The school also uses an app that the teachers use to let parents know how the day went and what the kids did all day. I love the app!! Communication is a huge component to making me happy about childcare and Debbie and the teachers are great at it. There has never been a moment that I felt "in the dark" about what was going on at the school. The teachers and before/after care staff is so sweet and caring. There are times that I come to pick up the girls and Franki will be sitting on the after care teachers lap giggling...just so happy! They are always smiling when they are dropped off and when they get picked up. Mrs Allen told me that it was taking Franki some time getting used to sleeping on a cot. So she sits with her and rubs her back until she falls asleep...I seriously almost cried! Instead of just scolding her for not sleeping, they took the time to help her adjust to her new situation! Thank you Debbie, thank you staff....thank you for keeping the most important people in my life safe and happy all day! Thank you for giving this working mama peace of mind that my babies are safe all day!!!!

As a Teacher at MLH I enjoy working here with other experienced Teachers. Everyone is devoted to their students.Our Director Debbie Starinsky, will greet you with a warm and welcoming smile. She will patiently answer all your important concerns involving your child's needs. Debbie is also an Educator which makes her knowledgeable in all operations of the school. There are so many fun activities that come to us. Here are some examples, Magic Show, Mad Science, Petting Zoo. It's wise to explore all your options to determine the best fit for your child.

I have recently enrolled my son in the toddler classroom, and I genuinely like it thus far. I like how clean the building is, and the look and feel of each individual classroom. My son is starting to speak more syllables, and I am noticing a difference in how he eats as well (he now takes small bites of his food, and previously would just put the entire food item in his mouth).

We enrolled our daughter for the 2014- 2015 school year, and it's the best decision we could have ever made for her. From the moment we went to meet with the school's director she was comfortable there. On her first day she walked in and almost forgot to say bye to us, she was that secure in their environment already. The staff is incredible, everyone there genuinely cares about each child. The entire staff is very friendly, approachable, and knowledgeable. The curriculum is fantastic, our daughter is doing so well, and she amazes us all the time with how much she really is learning. We have already registered her for the next school year and plan on keeping her there through kindergarten. Everything we have experienced with Montessori Learning House has been extremely positive and we can't recommend their facility enough!
