My daughter has been here for over 2 years and I have been so happy with the school and staff. She has been well cared for and has been learning more than I would have been able to teach her myself. I like the Montessori environment they provide without screen time and plenty of time outside and doing creative projects. Staff are kind and caring and always willing to work with me regarding scheduling. My infant just started here as well and I know they are both in good hands! Update 2025: my oldest daughter graduated and is in kindergarten and I believe she has a hand up in reading, writing, and math as well as social skills due to her time at peaceful heights! My youngest has been in the infant room since 3 months and is moving to the toddler room soon. I could not be happier with the staff here, they have always worked with my needs and my daughter is always happy there!

This was the first daycare I reached out to when I was pregnant and the moment I stepped in the door I knew this is where my daughter needed to be. The building, especially the infant room, is extremely clean. The rates are incredibly reasonable, especially with all the activities and crafts the kids get to do. But by far the best thing about Peaceful Heights is the staff. Each and every staff member cares for these kids and their wellbeing so deeply. Because she was home with me for so long my daughter had a very hard time transitioning to daycare but they took it day by day and were always troubleshooting different things we could try to help her acclimate. My daughter has learned so much, from signs, to manners, to songs. As a parent it makes it so much easier to drop her off knowing I am leaving her with so many people who care and that she is going to have an active and engaging day. We love this daycare and can't imagine sending her anywhere else.

We love Peaceful Heights! Our son was previously at a corporate daycare and we had a terrible experience there. As first time parents, it was hard to find a daycare that we could trust after that. Then we found Peaceful Heights — as soon as we met Ms. Kica and the infant teachers, we felt at ease and our son did too. He's been there ever since and has grown so much from the teachers who I feel truly care for him like he is their own. I'm incredibly grateful for how thoughtful and communicative they are, it honestly feels like family!

Peaceful Heights Montessori is a safe, warm, and learning environment. My children are learning skills at an early age such as math and reading, but they are also, more importantly, learning how to have empathy, care for others, and have a sense of responsibility. Two of my children have been at PHM since they were infants and I wouldn't even think of sending them anywhere else.

I’ve had the pleasure of watching my children grow and thrive at PHM over the years. My oldest daughter is now heading off to elementary school, and it’s bittersweet to see her leave after such a wonderful experience. I’ve seen her not only excel academically but also develop a love for learning that I know will carry her through the years ahead. I’m grateful for everything she’s learned here, especially as she’s now reading books in kindergarten! Now, my youngest has started at PHM, and I’m so happy to say she is thriving just like her older sister. The Montessori approach has worked wonders for both of them, encouraging independent learning, critical thinking, and social growth. The teachers are deeply dedicated and always go above and beyond to ensure each child’s individual needs are met. My youngest has already shown so much growth and enthusiasm for school, and I know she’s in great hands. The communication from the school is always thoughtful and consistent, and there’s a strong sense of community that I really appreciate. It’s reassuring to know that my children are in a place that truly supports their growth and development. Overall, PHM has been an invaluable part of both my daughters’ educational journeys, and I can’t recommend it highly enough to anyone looking for a nurturing, high-quality learning environment.
