We are so thankful for Beginnings and Beyond! My little one has been attending this Montessori school for about 2 years, and the experience has been incredible. The teachers do such a wonderful job encouraging independence, kindness, and respect for others while still providing gentle structure and guidance. Her classmates are some of the sweetest kids I’ve ever seen—when one child stumbles, the whole class gathers to make sure they’re okay. I’ve even seen older students hug my daughter goodbye at pick-up, modeling compassion and setting such a beautiful example for the younger ones. That peer-to-peer care and leadership is something really special about Montessori, and it has transformed my once “wild” little one into a thoughtful, caring child. I highly recommend this school and the amazing things they do for children and families!
We love this school and are so happy we found it for our child. Since attending B&B our son has made so many new friends and learned so many new skills. We are amazed everyday by the new things he is learning. It’s has really helped foster his independence and been great socialization during a time he’s needed it the most. His teachers, Ms. Carol and Ms. Neveen (along with all the other teachers/staff) are well skilled in child development and greet each child with so much love, patience and respect every day. They are supportive and invested in every child that attends here. Additionally, the director Miss Robin is extremely professional, has exceptional knowledge on Montessori methods and ensures the quality of the school is always top notch. Class sizes are small which allows one on one attention and we also love that it’s a Christian school where our child is learning great lessons and values. It’s a great feeling knowing each morning that we are leaving our child in such great hands. If you’ve been searching for great preschool to give your child a good foundation, this school is it!
We have sent both our daughters to B&B since they were two years old. Our older daughter has been at the school for over four years now. They are both thriving and happy there and we really appreciate the great teachers and classrooms there. This is also a proper Montessori school. Both the director and head teacher are AMS certified and the director even runs Montessori training sessions on-site. We also appreciate that this is a Christian school. It is also important to note that B&B is first and foremost a proper school and that the Christian education is in addition to the secular education. In short, our daughters have had a great time and education at B&B and we would not hesitate to recommend other parents to see if it is a good fit for them and their children.
Love this place! I've sent both of my kids to this school and they love it. The oldest is already graduated and thriving in public school. My oldest even enjoyed how they taught math by using beads. My 2 year old is currently in this school and enjoys the independent learning. She is talking more and insists on doing everything herself. This place even helped her with potty training. Couldn't be more happier. Thanks again Beginnings and Beyond!
The teachers are amazing. The director, Robin, is absolutely exceptional. It's an excellent balance of all the things kids need to be happy and challenged. My daughter has been skipping in there since her first day, and that wasn't the case wih other (even though they were very good) schools. She's is very happy and excelling across the board.There is a level of calmness at B & B that is really hard to find at other pre-schools. So grateful we found this place. I highly, highly recommend it.
