Schools near Duvall, WA

“We loved to Duvall just about 8 months ago and stumbled on this charming local daycare. I was looking for somewhere that could take in my three babes under five (5, 3.5, 1 - fun!), show them love & fun, and not break the bank - and Braithburn delivered on all of that. They've also shown to be very invested in my children's development - making me feel like i have another partner as we raise our kids and make them into the best humans possible. I'd definitely recommend them as a great daycare”

“I love Goddard school, initially chose it because I felt the campus has paid attention to keeping it safe, like those bars in front of the parking to keep classes safe (so thoughtful and must have). Later I liked both pre school and preK classes that my kid attended, teachers were great and attentive, support staff caring and management very communicative with parents. Couldn't be happier.”

“The team top to bottom is proactive, flexible, and excellent communication. I love how every teacher greets our children by name in the hallway. Their teachers plan amazing learning experiences and encourage independence. I feel like a partner with my kids teachers and they are truly committed to my children’s development.”

“We used Kiddie Academy Redmond for two years. Hours were great for SpaceX employees. Front staff is very quick to respond same day. Teachers love the children as their own (Supernova/Saturn)

“Our son Benjamin started at The Goddard School when he was just over one year old, and now, at five, he's heading off to kindergarten. As excited as we are for this next chapter, it’s truly bittersweet to say goodbye to a place that has meant so much to our family.

Over the past four years, the teachers at Goddard have not only cared for Benjamin, but helped shape the amazing boy he is becoming. Through their patience, professionalism, and deep dedication, they’ve nurtured his growth into a responsible, curious, understanding, smart, and loving child. Every positive trait he exhibits today is, in some way, connected to the values and culture instilled at this school.

To all the incredible teachers: thank you. Thank you for putting your hearts into what you do every single day. You may not hear it often enough, but we want you to know how deeply grateful we are for your impact—not just on Benjamin, but on all the children and families lucky enough to walk through your doors. What you do is nothing short of extraordinary.

And a special thank you to Kalis, the owner, for creating such a strong, caring, and joyful environment. You've built a remarkable team and community. Our past four years at Goddard have been filled with warmth, growth, and peace of mind—and we can’t thank you enough for that.

With sincere gratitude,
Benjamin’s parents,
Sean and Lynn”

“I took my granddaughter for her gymnastics, the seats were comfortable upstairs, had a good view of all the kids. They had several classes and different age groups going on at same time. My granddaughter loved it. My daughter said it was the least expensive place in the whole area. Worth the drive.”

“The staff who work at this center feel like family to us. I can tell how much our son loves all the teachers and I take such great comfort in knowing that he’s in good hands every day. My daughter recently started in the infant room and the teachers have been so loving to her and communicative with our family. Another recent review mentioned a baby crying uncontrollably with no teacher assisting but this has never been my experience with the infant room. The staff are very attentive and engaging and patient. I am so thankful for this center and the wonderful teachers!”

“Enrolling our daughter at Sammamish Montessori was the best decision we could have made. She's become so independent and learned to play and explore on her own. The staff and management are incredibly caring and supportive. They went above and beyond for us when we had a family situation. Staffs and teachers helped us immensely by taking care of our daughter, allowing us to focus on the situation at hand.”

“Absolutely loved our time with Kiddy Korner. My daughter attended for two years or so as a 3 and 4 year old. We were nervous to trust daycare for the first time but don’t think it would be been possible to find better than we did with Kiddy Korner.

The staff was extremely helpful and caring. My daughter loved her time there and we always felt she was in the best care. I loved how the kids had fun activities and learning. Here and there small incidents would happen as expected, like some scratches on the playground. The staff were always extremely on top of it and communicated all issues immediately. There weren’t many and nothing major. She was very well cared for.

My wife and I had a newborn this year and she attended Kiddy Korner for a month. Unfortunately we won’t need care any longer as my wife is staying home from work now, but we would’ve happily kept our newborn there for as long as necessary. The care was excellent.”

“The director has been amazing. Great communication. The teachers and staff have been very nice and accommodating to my daughter. She has really enjoyed coming here and playing with her friends.”

“We have had nothing but positive things to say about them since we enrolled our son. From management to the teachers, everyone is polite, gets to know each child individually, and always takes the time to great parents. The camera system give peace of mind to us a parents and the daily live communication through the app and at pick up in person from the teachers makes sure you as a parent are never out of the loop of your child's day. 10/10 highly recommend this center.”

“We had a wonderful experience in back-up care program. Miss Emy has been absolutely wonderful. From the very beginning, her gentle and thoughtful approach helped my kid feel safe and comfortable. We were especially touched to see (via camera) that during nap times, she would softly pat him and gently stroke his head to help him fall asleep. These small gestures meant so much and truly showed how deeply she cares for the children.”

“We have had our son in the infant room from 6 months, and it has been an incredibly positive experience. Miss Tammy and Miss Bri take such good care of my son and are always aware of his needs. They regularly check in with me about things, and I see them as well as every other person at the center being so great with him. Even teachers I don’t recognize who are in other rooms greet him by name when we come and go, and I can tell that they all take pride in this center. Highly recommend.”

“LC has been an excellent experience for both our sons. We moved to Sammamish at the beginning of the pandemic with 4 and 2 year olds and were looking for a school and were new to Montessori. Our neighbors recommended TLC and we couldn't be happier. The school never closed during Covid and managed a once in a lifetime pandemic with grace and foremost, childrens' safety in mind. our oldest son is now in public school and has excelled because of the foundation the Kim's and all the great teachers provided him. Couldn't recommend the school more highly.”
