What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
If I could give 10 stars I would! In both the aspect of an employee and a student Mariana is such a great leader with an equally great team of employees ( I know because I was one once) Her passion and commitment to each and every person that walks though those doors speaks volumes. If you’re looking for quality learning/curriculum, a kind and devoted team, a clean and safe learning environment or just a Fun summer experience for your kids, Montgomery little bears is the place for you! Thank you MLB for always going above and beyond expectations ❤️
Montgomery Little Bears is fantastic! Hands down the best daycare in Montgomery. The director and staff are wonderful -- they are all so caring and genuinely love what they do, and it shows. They have detailed weekly curriculum and send updates throughout the day. My kiddos have been coming here for the past few years for daycare and summer camp, and they absolutely love it. They have various activities to keep the kids busy over the summer – water days, weekly field trips, basketball, and much, much more. I could not ask for a better place to take my kiddos!
We LOVE MLB! My daughter and son have both been attending since they were 6 weeks old. The directors and staff have always treated us like family and we have loved every single teacher thus far. I always feel like my babies are safe and learning each day I drop them off, which is all I could really ask for. They have detailed weekly curriculums and send updates throughout each day which is one of my favorite things about them. This is a second home for my babies and I will always be thankful for how much they have done for me and my family. ❤️
A+…Amazing school/daycare! We have been attending MLB for over a year now. At the time of enrollment I was just starting an ECI (Early Childhood Intervention) evaluation as my son was slightly behind in his milestones. The evaluations concluded that he had Sensory Processing Disorder. The staff were incredible to accommodate the visits from therapists and pay special attention to his dietary changes. I was given feedback when anything may have caused a flare-up during the day! The therapists that visited always commented about the great way the school taught the kids and handled the learning process for all the kids! It was fantastic to hear this as I never got to stop in mid-day! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the teachers and staff. They always greets the kids with smiles and hugs! Many times when I drop-off or pick-up the owner (Mrs. Mariana) is in the classrooms with the kids! Mrs. Fernanda and Ms. Alex are always around to assist with any administrative concerns. Mrs. Jill has been a fantastic teacher and we have just moved to a new classroom and excited to get to know Mrs. Fran and Mrs. Nicole! When my son literally runs from me into his room each day, barely remembering to give me a kiss goodbye, I know that he loves it! My office has moved farther away but I would not change schools/daycares if you paid me! We love MLB!
We love Montgomery Little Bears! My oldest son struggled to find a place that he didnt cry at. The staff and ownership here made him feel like family and he is now thriving socially and educationally. My youngest has been so comfortable with every teacher and every room he has been through. They have lost GREAT TEACHERS with huge hearts, but I think they have found even Better Teachers with bigger hearts. I cant speak highly enough of Mrs. Becky and the rest of the staff. Absolutely the best.
