“My daughter attended the summer program for the past three years and she loves it. The staff do a very good job with communication and the facility is very clean.”

“So thankful for joining The Learning Experience,my daughter has bloomed so much since being there we started in a infant class now to a pepper’s class ! From front desk to teachers everyone is so nice and well educated they truly know what they are doing there curriculum is amazing,Thank you all for all the hard work you put into my daughter truly appreciate you all ❤️”

“Having previously enrolled my child in a few other daycares and eventually having to pull him out, I can confidently say that finding Kiddie Academy has been one of the best decisions I’ve made. From the start, Ms. Zunara, his first teacher at Kiddie Academy, was incredibly welcoming, loving, and attentive. She truly cares for the children in her class, and it shows—my son always has a big smile and a cheerful “bye” ready for her every morning and everyone one he comes in contact within the premises. The rest of the teaching staff are just as wonderful—warm, nurturing, and genuinely invested in the kids’ well-being. There was a specific incident involving my child that left me particularly impressed. The administrative team handled it with care and professionalism, taking swift and appropriate measures to ensure the children’s safety. That level of attentiveness reassured me that I made the right choice. Kiddie Academy has created a safe, loving, and structured environment where my child is thriving.”

“I am fairly new to the area and I have 2 kids that have never gone to daycare before so I have been a reck trying to find the right place. I toured with Ms Jana she was such a delight and patiently explained how KMA works and showed me around. I probably asked her 1000 questions and she was so patient and made me feel heard and comfortable. I’m Really looking forward to my kids starting next week. Thank you so much Ms Jana”

“Goddard is an amazing school! The teachers are so loving and I have been the happiest there. My son has grown so much and he loves it! I know that he will be well prepared for kindergarten! I’m so thankful and blessed to have found Goddard. I wish he was there from 1 year but the last 2 years were phenomenal.”

“My son used to get sick a lot from his old school. That was the main reason we pulled him out from there. Full transparency, he was 6 months old when he started there, and I know it’s normal to get sick in daycare. But being sick almost monthly doesn’t feel normal.

When we moved to Children’s Lighthouse, my son has never gotten sick *knock on wood*. I can see how clean the place is, during nap time the teachers clean the toys and the rooms while the children are sleeping. And then again after hours.

My son has learned a lot too. Whenever he gets home, I will see him dance and sing and say colors and animal sounds (he’s 2), and even do sign language. I was learning this from him too! He loves his school too, after he adjusted, I can see how his eyes smile when I drop him off and doesn’t even get excited to see me when I pick him up anymore.

They have documentation of their day’s activities too in an app, and camera so you can see your little ones.

The teachers are so patient and sweet. I cannot imagine dealing with 10-15 toddlers everyday. They are awesome!”

“My oldest has been enrolled here since he was 8 months-old, exactly 2 years ago. We have had a great experience here throughout the years. It’s hard to get him to leave at pick up time as he’s always trying to play around the school, which to me means he feels comfortable and safe. We just had to enroll our 3 month-old and so far we have had a great experience as well. The infant teachers are nurturing and good communicators. Knowing the admin personnel and the teachers makes the experience of leaving your tiny baby at the school every day a lot easier. Would definitely recommend.”

“Both of my boys went to this daycare, and they absolutely loved it! The staff is caring, attentive, and truly makes the kids feel safe and happy. It gave me peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands every day. The environment is welcoming, and they do a great job balancing learning, playtime, and structure. I’m so grateful for the love and care my children received here. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a nurturing and reliable daycare!”

“My 2 year old son goes here and we love it so much! The staff are all loving and nurturing and treat us like we are all a big family. Miss Jamie the director is present all the time and if you ever have questions or concerns she takes the time to listen to parents and help however she can. Miss Asia (don’t know if I spelled it right) is phenomenal and just a ray of sunshine every single day. my sons in 2As and his teachers are the best! loving and kind. if he’s upset they take the time to soothe and calm him down. I can’t say enough good things about our experience with Ivy Kids Long meadow farms!!!!

Oh and they also have fun dress up days throughout each month and do events for different holidays. This is a place that loves their students and they offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner with snacks in between!!! And do special Spanish and science lessons. And they have gymnastics, soccer, and fun bus lessons in house on different days of the week during care.”

“We’ve had a wonderful experience at Kiddie Academy. Both our son and daughter attended from the 1-year-old class through the 4-year-old class, and we couldn't be more grateful for the care they received along the way.

From Ms. Fareena, Ms. Nelly, and Ms. Janet in the early years to Ms. Rosario and Ms. Alishiba most recently, every teacher and admin has made a lasting impact. Special thanks also to Ms. Mariale, Ms. Maru, Ms. Kenia, Ms. Gabby, Ms. Nicolle, and Ms. Najia for their warmth, patience, and dedication, including some creative hair styling sessions! :)

Our kids had their moments in those early years, but the staff met every challenge with compassion. The growth we’ve seen has been incredible. It astonishes us how much vocabulary, knowledge, and creativity they come home with.

We’re also grateful for the thoughtful curriculum and daily structure. Ms. Glenda and Ms. Sandra have created something special, and their leadership and commitment show in every classroom.

Our kids truly enjoyed going to school each day, and the constant photo and daily updates were a bonus that helped us feel connected.

Thanks to Kiddie Academy, they are more than ready for Pre-K. We’re so thankful for this supportive and nurturing environment.”

“My daughter has been going here for about 7 to 9 months and the teachers are wonderful here. I couldn't have found a better place. My daughter has a special bond with each of her teachers. They prepare our children for school by having different curriculums every week. They send home little progress reports to indicate where your child is and where they can use a little help. My daughter love the activities they do with them. They have the utmost respect these children and I love that. I'd like to say thank you all from the administrators, lunch room and to the teachers for all your hard work. It takes alot of patience and time to deal with each child. I appreciate you all. ? ? ? ? ?”

“Discovery is a wonderful school. I could not say enough good things about it. Ms. Jenny is amazing and so is the staff. The class sizes are small and the curriculum is rich in learning through play type material.”

“I can’t express how much relief I have felt in finding the Lighthouse Harvest Green. My toddler and baby both are so loved and happy at drop off and pick up each day. My toddler even runs to our front door in the mornings as soon as his shoes are on now to go to school. I am so thankful we found a place that my children can feel comfortable and where I know they are being cared for. Thank you!”

“BellaVision Montessori School has been absolutely wonderful! My daughter stayed there for over two years, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The teachers are caring and dedicated, the environment is nurturing and safe, and she learned so much both academically and socially. We saw her grow in confidence and independence every day. Highly recommend to any family looking for a warm and supportive Montessori school!”

“as a parent i have to definitely say i loveeee the staff and each teacher in their individual classes!! you guys are soooo amazing and very appreciated & as for ms.jenny …. all your hard work & dedication towards this center is inspiring & amazing!! i salute you , thank you for always making sure every child is well taken care of and treated with your kindness and love ??”

“I’ve waited four years to write this review—intentionally—because I wanted to give a truly honest and thoughtful reflection on our experience. Please bear with the length, as this is a very personal journey.

Our family’s relationship with Montessori House of Children began four years ago when I enrolled my two children in the summer camp to see how they would adjust. They loved it. From there, our journey unfolded: my oldest started in the Elementary program, my second child joined the Early Childhood (3–5 years) class, and the following year, my youngest entered the Toddler program (18 months–3 years). We've now experienced every program the school offers, and I’ve had the opportunity to interact with nearly every staff member—teachers, assistants, administrators, and leadership.

It took a few months for my children to adjust to the new environment and Montessori approach, which is perfectly normal. But with the support and patience of some of the most dedicated and nurturing teachers I’ve ever met, it soon became a smooth, joyful routine.

What makes Montessori House of Children truly special is that it goes beyond academics. The school focuses on nurturing independence, kindness, confidence, and a sense of community in every child. My kids feel safe, supported, and truly happy here—and as a parent, that’s all I could ask for.

The relationships I’ve built over the years—with teachers, staff, fellow parents, and the administration—have been incredibly rewarding. I’m endlessly grateful for the team’s commitment to both academic and emotional development. Every teacher has played a meaningful role, from Ms. Maria and her team in the Toddler program, to Ms. Lakshmi in Early Childhood, and the wonderful Elementary teachers: Ms. Yadira, Ms. Alexandra, Ms. Erica, Ms. Via, Ms. Elisa, Ms. Ebtisam, the Spanish teacher, and everyone in the front office. You have all made such a difference in our lives.

We recently faced the possibility of moving to another city due to work—and the thought of leaving this school was truly heartbreaking. Fortunately, we get to stay, and we’re thrilled to be returning this fall to continue being part of this incredible community.

Thank you, Montessori House of Children, for everything you’ve done for our family. We can’t wait for what’s ahead.”

“Our daughter has been attending Kiddie Academy for 6 months, and as a family we love it! Not only does she enjoy attending daycare my husband and I love that Kiddie Academy is preparing her for preschool (and it shows) Potty traing has been a success with the help of her teachers. The safe and healthy learning environment that Kiddie Academy provide is a plus. I can go on and on about Kiddie Academy. It's a safe, loving, exciting, and fun leaning environment to place your child and feel comfortable while you go about your work day. We couldn't have chosen a better place for our daughter.”

“I absolutely love this Kids R Kids! I love all of the staff! I love the curriculum and the attention they give all of the kids. My son finished pre-K4 reading, doing math and writing almost as good as my 3rd grader! I can't recommend them enough! If you want cameras, they have that too. I started off looking at the cameras but after a couple of months I never looked at them again. You can't go wrong with your kid in their hands!”

“08/23/2023: I forgot to add your child will leave there with a 1st grade education. Myself and other parents are having a hard time with Kinder as our children were taught at KRK at are past the school work given. 08/08/2023: I JUST CRIED WITH THEM TODAY. AS IT IS OUR SON'S LAST DAY. WE WISH HE COULD CONTINUE GOING HERE FOREVER. EACH AND EVERYONE OF THEM ARE UNIQUE INDIVIDUALS BUT A REFLECTION OF ONE UNIT FOR ONE PURPOSE! TO CARE, NUTURE, SUPPORT AND EDUCATE YOUR CHILD AS YOU DO! THEY ARE NOW OUR ADOPTED FAMILY! I PROMISE YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED! THEY ARE WONDERFUL. THE RECENT NEGATIVE REVIEW THAT GOT 5 THUMBS UP SHOULD BE REMOVED BC IT HAS ZERO TO DO WITH FACTUAL DAY TO DAY INTERACTIONS. THIS PERSON HAD A ASSUMPTION ON THEIR FEELINGS AS WE ALL DO TO THIS DAY EVEN WITH TEXTS. I HATE TO SEE THIS NEGATIVE REVIEW AS OUR CHILD HAS LEFT WITH AN ADOPTED FAMILY! THEY CREATE A CULTURE. EACH PARENT LOOKS OUT FOR EACH CLASSMATE AS WELL. WE RESPECT ONE ANOTHER AND ACKNOWLEDGE ONE ANOTHER AS EVEN IN PARKING LOT! WE WILL MISS KRK! IF YOU SIGN UP YOU WILL NOT BE REGRETFUL! THEY WERE SO WONDERFUL WE NEVER HAD TO CHECK THE CAMERAS! THEY ARE ALSO ON TOP OF COMMUNICATING ANY CHANGES, SECURITY ISSUES, WEATHER ETC. YOU CANNOT BEAT THIS PLACE AT ALL! UGH! WRITING THIS IS MAKING ME TEAR UP AGAIN! LOVE THEM ALL!2 YEARS AGO: I am first off BAFFELED by some negative comments. We waited over a month before reviewing this facility as our child transferred from another accredited school. Let me rewind....THANK YOU TO THR CURRENT BEAUTIFUL HUMANS AT THIS FACILITY! They are no racist, bias, discriminatory as listed in previous comments. In fact, this facility models our child's diverse family. They are welcoming, loving, respectful and dedicated from the time they open their doors to our baby. Our son has always love education at home and he is just flourishing here. He comes home regurgitating all the respectful manners, songs, lessons and more that are taught, with nuture and patience here. Children are sponges and they repeat EVERYTHING they hear. At the previous facility he was repeating, yelling from teachers and STOP, etc. Here it seems these educators are not only knowledgeable but have rational thinking in knowing who is in front of them. They are not just chosen to fill a spot and baby sit like some other daycare, they have been provided a platform to be part of our child's growth. An impact. That is EXACTLY what Kids R Kids is...an impact and presence and reason why our child has flourished! We could not be happier. We are stunned we did not know of them sooner. We know of two other families who said they adored them and their children were advanced in school after leaving. HATS OFF TO KIDS R KIDS OF HOUSTON METRO. PHENOMENAL ALL AROUND!TO ADD:Clean facility.Constants and accurate updates.Constant information.Provides Calendar updates.Keeps their personal feeling on the pandemic away and just wears masks for the safety of EVERYONE!Does not seem to pressure children with their structure but encourage.Just overall perfection!BLESS YOU ALL! THANK YOU FOR BEING PART OF THE VILLAGE IN HELPING RAISE OUR BABY BOY!”

“We moved our son to this school about a year ago, and it has been one of the best decisions we've made. My husband and I have watched him grow and improve in so many ways, and we couldn’t be happier.

The school was incredibly patient and supportive throughout his potty training journey, guiding us every step of the way.

Our son, Dean, is full of energy and enthusiasm. The staff worked closely with us to ensure he receives the guidance he needs, and their level of communication is truly exceptional.

This school has given our son the space to flourish and succeed, and we are beyond grateful.”
