One negative review questions the owner's presence and teaching methodology.
Both our daughters have attended this school over the past 7 years and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Jennifer and her staff. We have always felt so supported in our parenting. The school house was a place both my girls thought of as a second home. The teachers are not only caring, but are excellent at coaching the children on how to regulate their emotions. Curriculum was wonderful- both my daughters learned differently and both thrived in the school's learning environment. The snacks are always healthy, and outdoor play is prioritized which was important to our family. You could not ask for a better team or place for your child to learn and grow. We will forever be grateful for the time we got to spend at Little Garden School House :)
The Little Garden Schoolhouse is a true hidden gem in the desert. The owner is an educational visionary that is so rare to find in the preschool sector. If you are interested in having your little ones explore their first moments of school rooted in the organic permaculture movement and a foundation of true Montessori consider The Little Garden Schoolhouse.
Our daughter has been attending this school for a little over a year and we wish we found it sooner! LGS has exceeded our expectations in every way possible. Our daughter’s speech and social skills have blossomed since she started here. All the littles are treated with kindness and respect and it’s made a difference in how our daughter interacts with others both in school and at home. As an added bonus, the children learn to garden and they even have chickens! Ms Jennifer and her entire staff truly care about the children and treat them like they’re part of their own family. It means the world to us to know that our daughter is safe and well cared for while we are at work. We can not recommend the Little Garden Schoolhouse enough!
Most daycare's offer better service for your kids. The owner is checked out and does not do Montessori education like she says. She's often not even there during the day.
My son attended this school from three years and misses Ms. Jennifer immensely. He loved eating fresh fruits and veggies straight from the garden, he took his first steps there and still misses Ms. Jen. I work at a really good Montessori school, but kept him longer at this school because of the strong community and the love and passion of all those who worked there. He still misses the schoolhouse and some of the friendships he has made.
