“Tiny Einstein is a wonderful place for your children! My son attended the center for all three years, progressing from the youngest group to the graduation class, and we are absolutely delighted with our experience!

Each group has a very well-structured daily routine, allowing children to both learn and play. They spend plenty of time outdoors on the playground and enjoy freshly prepared, healthy meals including soup, meat, vegetables, and side dishes.

The educational program is designed to teach English while also preserving the Russian language. By the end of the program, my son knows all the Russian and English letters, can read simple words in both languages, counts to 100, understands instructions in English, and can formulate responses. At home, we only speak Russian, so all of his English knowledge was gained at the center.

All of the teachers and staff are highly qualified, attentive, and kind educators.

Wishing you continued success and prosperity!”

“Our family has had a wonderful experience with Montessori Cottage. Our son absolutely loves going to school every day—in fact, he even made up a song about his teacher, Angelina, which says everything about how happy he is there.

The teachers are incredibly warm, caring, and genuinely love the children. You can feel that this is a place where kids are treated with kindness, respect, and patience. Communication with parents has been excellent, especially through their app, which keeps us updated throughout the day and gives us peace of mind.

What impresses us most is how much our son has learned. The activities are well planned, educational, and engaging. Safety has also always been a big plus for us, and we feel our son is very well cared for and supervised.

As a parent, finding a place you trust with your child means everything, and Montessori Cottage has exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a loving, safe, and high-quality preschool in Mountain View!”

“The teachers and staff here are so kind, patient, and come up with activities that keep the kiddos engaged and learning something new every day. We are happy our kids are well taken care of and happy here. This is our 5th year sending our kiddos to LPP and couldn’t recommend them more. :)”

“For anyone considering piano lessons, I wholeheartedly recommend CSMA! My experience with Muza Mdzinarishvili, a Distinguished Faculty member, was outstanding.

As an adult learner, I truly valued her balanced teaching style: she consistently acknowledged my progress, which was very motivating, while also gently guiding me to address my weaknesses. What sets Muza apart is her ability to create personalized homework assignments that are a perfect blend of pieces by composers I adore and targeted exercises to develop my finger skills. She's an amazing piano teacher!”

“Kiddie Academy of Mountain View has truly become my son’s second home, and I cannot recommend it enough. My son started here when he was 18 months old, and to this day my biggest regret is not sending him sooner. I genuinely wish we had enrolled him when he was even younger.

The level of love, patience, and care here is something I have not seen anywhere else. The teachers go above and beyond in ways that truly touch your heart. Even on days when my son doesn’t eat, they make sure to save his lunch and try again after he wakes up, showing so much thoughtfulness and understanding. Because of this trust, within just a few weeks I stopped checking the daily updates obsessively—I simply knew he was being cared for even better than I could imagine.

What truly sets Kiddie Academy apart is the small class size. In my son’s class, there are only six babies with two dedicated teachers, which means every child gets real, personal attention. My son has learned and grown so much here in such a short time.

A very special mention to Ms. Rochelle, the director—she is nothing short of amazing. I have never seen a director so hands-on, loving, and energetic. She plays, dances, and interacts with the children constantly, and I’ve honestly never seen her sit still for even a moment. She is the absolute favorite of children of all age groups, and her warmth and genuine love are rare and incredibly special.

Ms. Briza deserves endless appreciation as well. She worries about my son on the days he doesn’t eat and truly takes care of him as if he were her own baby. Even though my son is almost two now, whenever I go to pick him up, he is either in her arms or happily playing around her—which says everything about the bond they share.

Every single person here is kind, friendly, and always smiling. They don’t enforce rigid rules—instead, they focus on building trust with parents and children, and once you trust them with your child, they truly go above and beyond.

Highly, highly recommend. Kiddie Academy of Mountain View is not just a daycare—it is family, love, and care wrapped into one beautiful place.”

“Come check it out if you are looking for a place where childhood is preserved and little ones are given all the opportunities to grow and gain independence and knowledge without pressure, at their speed and level. Kind, fun, nurturing, clean, and their yard is the best.”

“As parents, this was one of the hardest and most emotional milestones for our family. This is our daughter’s very first experience being away from us and surrounded by people outside of family, so naturally, we were nervous and protective. We spent a lot of time researching schools, visiting different campuses, and speaking with staff throughout the area because we wanted to make sure she would be in a place where she felt safe, loved, and truly cared for.

The moment we stepped into MVLA Montessori Children's Center, something felt different. There was an immediate warmth and genuine sense of compassion from everyone we met. The staff not only care deeply for the children, but they also work closely with parents as partners to help each child thrive and succeed. That level of support and dedication meant the world to us.

The biggest proof of all is our daughter herself. Every single morning, she wakes up excited and genuinely happy to go to school. Seeing her run into class with confidence, joy, and a huge smile on her face gives us so much peace and reassurance as parents. Her growth, happiness, and enthusiasm speak louder than words ever could.

There honestly isn’t enough space in this review to fully express how grateful we are for this school and how much they go above and beyond for their students and families. We feel incredibly blessed to have found MVLA Montessori Children's Center, and we cannot recommend them highly enough.”

“Our child went here, starting as a newborn until 15 months. She was medically complicated and needed a lot of support. The team barely blinked. They met her where she was. They learned her routines, adapted activities to include her, and cheered her on as she grew. We moved and had to change centers, but I will always be so, so grateful for how the team navigated that first year with us. We miss all of the teachers and admin- they took such great care of our family!”

“One of the best places for young children to spend their time during the day. Thank you for being thoughtful, personal, and thoroughly supportive of the children and their families.”

“Saint Francis High School is an exceptional partner. Their staff is organized, supportive, and deeply committed to maintaining a clean, safe, and welcoming campus for their students and community. We appreciate the clear communication and collaboration that make our work seamless. A truly outstanding school to work with.”

“This is by far the best daycare and preschool for kids. The staff is very caring and supportive and helps in each individual kids needs. We had both our kids enrolled from 6 months until 3 years of age, and they loved their time at school. The food is also great.One of the best part is the extracurricular activities like yoga, music, dance, theatre etc, which is included in their curriculum while most of the places it is either not there or paid extra.”

“Our son attended Windsor Preschool for 2.5 years, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. This school is truly exceptional, thanks to its strong parent community and outstanding teachers and staff. All the teachers and support staff genuinely care about each child’s development. Their dedication, patience, and nurturing approach helped our son grow both socially and emotionally, leaving a lasting positive impact on him.
One of the highlights for our son was the engaging visits and presentations from parents and essential community members, including police officers, doctors, and firefighters. The field trips were always something he looked forward to, especially the visits to museums, Costco, Midwife and the Baker, and Pizza My Heart, among others. He was also thrilled to attend various ballet performances at the neighborhood ballet school, with The Nutcracker being his absolute favorite. The weekly trips to the neighborhood park and Thursday Share Day were always exciting for him.
As parents, we truly appreciated Windsor’s thoughtful presentation on elementary school selection. They invited alum parents to share their experiences with different schools, which gave us invaluable insight as we navigated the process for our son. The staff was always there to answer any questions we had, providing guidance and support throughout.
Windsor Preschool is a nurturing, enriching environment where our son not only learned and grew but also made wonderful memories. We are so grateful for the incredible experience he had there and highly recommend Windsor Preschool to any parent seeking a top-notch preschool for their child.”
