Preston Park Montessori Academy

My granddaughter has been going here since 2013 (when she was 3 months old) and still attends. I can not say enough about the wonderful, professional staff and the kind, nurturing teachers. I have been at the school at various times during the day and have found the teachers to always be encouraging and sensitive to the needs of the children in their care. The staff and teachers interact with each other and the parents with a refreshing openness and sincerity. My granddaughter has experienced a nurturing, intellectually stimulating and fun environment. Also, though it does not matter, my granddaughter is white. Someone wrote a nasty, bigoted review about only «Indian» children being at this school. I assure you Asian, Black, Hispanic and White children are all attending and equally loved. It is exactly this type of diversity that will help my granddaughter to succeed at school, work and life in general. This diversity also helps to eradicate racist beliefs and insure a more peaceful future for all of our children. I truly believe you will not be disappointed if you enroll your child at this school!

My kids have been going here since April 2014. My oldest had such a hard time adjusting. But Ms. Reva (then Asst. Director) and Ms. Pam (Owner) took such strains to love on her and just surround her with so much tender care. She was not just another kid in the school. They spend so much time with her and got to know her and placed her with Ms. Praneeta who then took care of her and literally coddled her and eased her into the class. Both my girls love going to Preston Park. My youngest has to be the biggest fan of Ms. Josephine (or as they call her with love Ms. Jojo!). Ms Pam is not a typical owner who’s all
About making money, she will get in her hands and knees and play with the kids. I have seen her go in and help the infants class, feeding babies, putting them to sleep as if they were her own. She has such a grace to be soft as a mother’s love and firm to discipline as well.
There are ppl who will yell at the kids. But u try handling 20+ kids all running in 4 different directions. It takes yelling at times for your voice to be heard. These teachers are far more forgiving and gentle than many I have seen in other schools.
I am so happy I found this school for my girls. Thank you PPMA for loving and caring for my angels. We love u!

The school its self is only catered to Indian children. As someone who worked here for a VERY short time, I can tell you that the people who run the school are awful, but the teachers are sweet. Go in during the middle of the day, you can hear people screaming at kids. Its all an act. I have witnessed staff grabbing kids and moving them around roughly. This school will not last long, they are not trained well. The people who run the school are not good to the staff that work for them. The woman who sits at the front desk is like hot and cold, you have to catch her on a good day. I have seen teachers leave children in high chairs while they sleep, instead of laying them down right away. The staff thinks its more important to clean a desk than to have a child lay down. Especially if you are not Indian. This facility is not running correctly. I would never send my child here. I don’t trust the staff to take care of them

Both my daughter (now in kindergarten) and my son have attended ppma. We love this school. The staff has proven to be the most caring group of women; they truly have a passion for the children. The education has been great, and my daughter was very well prepared for kindergarten. My son is always clean at the end of the day when I pick him up, and the school reflects his cleanliness. They are very regimented and thorough about the care of my children. I would recommend this place to anyone needing a daycare, they are open 12 hours m-​fri.
