What Parents Say
Alpha Montessori (now operating as Chiara Preschool) receives consistently high praise from parents for its caring staff, quality academics, and nurturing environment. Parents report noticeable improvements in their children's speech, social skills, and academic development, with teachers described as experienced, enthusiastic, and genuinely invested in each child's well-being.
I have nothing but amazing things to say! My son has been at Chiara for 8 months now, and after an exhausting search for childcare, choosing this daycare — even with only a few reviews online — was one of the best decisions I’ve made. Don’t be fooled by the limited reviews — the owners don’t seem to ask for them (they didn’t ask me). They’re fully focused on the kids and let the quality of care speak for itself. And it truly shows. The improvement in my son’s speech, social interaction, academics — everything — was noticeable almost immediately after he started here. Owners & staff are truly incredible. They genuinely love the kids and put 100% into every single day. The academics are on point, the activities are always engaging, and the same positive energy you feel at drop-off is what you get at pick-up. The daycare is spotless every single day, communication is excellent, and they are always attentive and present. I honestly cannot say enough great things about this place. Highly, highly recommend!
I am so grateful for Chiara Preschool (formerly Alpha Montessori). My eldest attended and it definitely prepared her for kindergarten. When my youngest graduates, we will sorely miss Chiara. The owners and the teachers all truly care about the children. They are warm and professional and my kids adore them!
We’ve had a wonderful experience at Chiara! The teachers are incredibly caring and helpful—they truly go above and beyond to support the children and families. It’s clear that the staff is deeply dedicated to the well-being and growth of every child at the school. What also stands out is how motivated and hands-on the owners have been. You can really see the love and effort being put into upgrading and beautifying the space, making it not just functional but also warm and inviting for the kids. Overall, Chiara feels like a place where children are genuinely nurtured, and where the entire team is passionate about creating a positive and enriching environment. We’re so grateful to be part of this community!
My 4-year old has been going to Alpha for over a year now. The staff is great. They all have a lot of experience with the little ones, which was quickly evident to me as my little one is quite shy and needed some coaxing to stay. The teachers are always enthusiastic to engage with the kiddos, very caring and introducing new and fun topics. My daughter was excited to share facts about planets that she learned in school. She enjoys a range of indoor and outdoor activities, including crafts, writing, math at Alpha. She's always excited to bring her work home and show it to us. A monthly parent's night out is also a nice thing they offer. We took a little break last term but still attended the monthly parent's night out as my daughter really enjoyed seeing her community. We are now back full time!
My four year old daughter has been attending Alpha Montessori for the last six months. So far, we couldn`t be happier with the results! She`s learning to write, read, count, and do basic math. However, the manners and independence are what most amaze us. These skills are gently encouraged at her school and the behavior carries over into her home life. Great teachers, great school, we`re so lucky to have this option for our child.
