"During the past five plus years, our three children have attended Townview Montessori. During that time, I have felt very confident in their care and preschool learning. The teachers are very caring and do a great job of understanding what makes each child an individual.
My children have made good friends and have enjoyed attending everyday. I have never heard them say, "I don't want to go!"
It's hard to leave this chapter of life, but in a few weeks our last two children (twins) will be officially "done" and ready to move on to White Bear Lake schools in the fall. They are more than ready for Kindergarten both socially and academically and that readiness is due to the skill, care, and love provided by Ms. Sue and her staff. Selecting a a preschool for your children is a hard, thoughtful decision. We've had no regrets on the decision we made and stuck with for over five years. Thank you Townview!"

"Cecilia started at Townview Montessori when she was an infant and now
she is one and a half. Her dad and I could honestly, not ask for a
better daycare.
The way the staff cares for the children and allows them
to learn, and most importantly adjust at their own pace, is just
incredible. The infants and toddlers learn SO much by being able to play, watch, sing, count,
do sign language,
and just interact with the preschoolers. The infants/young toddlers
are separated in their own "areas" at times during the day.
One
of the things that we love the most about Townview Montessori is that we
know that Cecilia can do/have/try, only when SHE is comfortable with
it. Such as, if she wants abottle at nap time, she has one. If she wants
to carry her blanket and pacifier with her throughout the day, just to
feel secure, the staff honors that. Or for example, if
Cecilia is not ready for a nap at the same time the other children are,
then a staff member recognizes this, and will sit with Cecilia, playing
quietly, reading, singing softly. Just helping Cecilia feel secure, so
she can rest/relax. The staff truly does adapt to each child's needs.
Cecilia
has learned so much at this daycare; and is developing such a wonderful
personality, being exposed to this environment and it is so cute to see
how the other/older children respond to her. They welcome her everyday
when she gets to daycare, with a hug or just excited that "Cecelia's
here!"
Townview Montessori is absolutely one of a kind! We
couldn't be happier with the teachers and assistants, and their way of
teaching, and caring for our daughter.
THANK YOU Miss Sue, and all of
the amazing staff at Townview Montessori!"
Sincerely,
Tony,
Sarah, and Cecilia W.
