From the moment I walked into Longwood, it just felt warm — like a place where kids are truly seen and cared for. All three of my kiddos have gone and are going here, and it’s been such a blessing for our family.
My oldest started out very shy but so bright, and Ms. Petra (along with Ms. Jeaneth!) worked so patiently to help her come out of her shell.
Every time my daughter spoke up or shared something in class, Ms. Petra would celebrate it with me. By the time she started kindergarten, she was already doing first-grade work!
That’s what I love most about Longwood — they meet each child where they are and help them grow in their own unique way.
The toddler class with Ms. Farida and Ms. Romina is just as amazing. They’re so nurturing and communicate so well — there are never any surprises. And they help with potty training like total pros!
This school just does things differently. It’s not stuffy or strict — it’s full of heart. I’ve never heard a teacher raise their voice.
The communication with the directors is open and honest, and Ms. Martha is truly the best. She listens, she cares, and it shows in everything from the classrooms to the way the whole school runs.
You can even check in on your little one during the day, which brings so much peace of mind (especially when they’re just starting out!). And the events? They go all out — the Thanksgiving feast is my absolute favorite. The kids help prepare the food, and the whole school comes together to celebrate. It’s such a beautiful reflection of the community they’ve built.
I could honestly go on and on. Longwood Montessori is more than a school — it’s a place where children are nurtured from the inside out. My kids have thrived here, and I couldn’t be more grateful. 💛
(pictures are from the celebration of Holi! It’s a colorful welcoming celebration of spring! The powder the school actually makes themselves and is completely safe for the kiddos! No tears and no stains! Everyone gets involved and it is so much fun!!)

We love being part of the Longwood Montessori Family! The staff is experienced, caring, and you can tell they truly love what they do. My children enjoy going to school every day and we love the variety of in-school activities available that let them explore and learn new skills. The teachers are patient, communicative, and wonderful role models. We couldn’t be happier!

We’ve been with Longwood Montessori for years and absolutely love it! The teachers are so caring, patient, and amazing with the kids. Our children have learned so much and are always excited to go. We wouldn’t trust anyone else!

Although my children did not attend here, our visit and tour was very welcoming and warm. I loved the classrooms, the cleanliness and the staff.

This school is terrible. The teachers routinely ignored our child, did not engage He. and left her completely by himself most of the day. The teachers even ignored us, the parents, and refused to discuss our child without a formal appointment. This was an extremely cold. negative enviroment. The philosophy of the school seems to be to leave the kids alone to teach themselves and if they do not flourish then that is the kid`s problem. The teachers and administration are arrogant adn unhelful. WHAT A HORRIBLE PLACE. miss Janet (Maple room)constantly manipulates the children, yells at them and treats them badly. and it seems that this is seen as very normal by the director miss Marta who does nothing to fully investigate what happened. Very dissapointed!

My son was shy and had a hard time adjusting to his new school. The school helped him tremendously and every single person was available to help put my mind at ease. He has started kindergarten now and I know he has the right foundation from Longwood. We love all the teachers and admin! If we had another child we would not hesitate to send him/her to Longwood! Thank you each and every one of you!!!!!

My daughter Ruby started here when she was 3 months old. Unfortunately we moved when she was 18 months or we would still be there!I loved the environment and activities. I also liked that many members of staff had been there for years! It was so wonderful to have a place to drop your child off and not have to worry about her. Her teachers genuinely cared for her. We miss them!

Hands down, the best schooling experience for my son. The staff truly cares about the kids. I felt like they took the time to get to know my son and us as a family. We relocated and sadly had to leave. We have found nothing close to Longwood since. They set the bar high for my expectations and what a school should offer. I would recommend Longwood to anyone.

Both of our boys started at Longwood Montessori as infants and stayed there through Primary. We could not have asked for better teachers and staff to play such a huge role in our children's lives. The children are taught not only traditional educational material, but also concepts like kindness and peace. It is a wonderful school, and a great environment.

Longwood Montessori has been a home away from home for our family. The incredible staff and wonderful curriculum stays true to the culture of Montessori. I couldn’t be more grateful for the environment Petra and Jeaneth have provided for my child’s continued growth and learning!

Ever since our child has been enrolled at Longwood Montessori, he has excelled tremendously! The teachers are amazing and the atmosphere is very inviting and loving. We can’t wait to start our second child there! I 100% recommend and support the family at Longwood Montessori School.

I cannot say enough good things about Longwood. Our kids have been through the infant, toddler and primary programs at Longwood over the last 4 years. The teachers are caring and supportive of the kids. The environment is wonderful and there's an incredible amount of learning going on. We recently had to move out of state, and we miss this school and the teachers so much. They truly are family! The Montessori method has been so wonderful for our kids in their development. My son will be starting kindergarten in the fall, and one of his new daycare teachers made a comment that he's much further along than his peers with his letters and numbers.

We spent 4 years at Longwood and loved every minute of it. My daughter truly enjoyed going to school every day. All the teachers are really special. I am mostly thankful for how prepared she is to enter kindergarten this year. She has gained a ton of knowledge, and I know she will continue to do well because of her start at Longwood.
