Guidepost Montessori at Deerbrook

Our family has been part of the Guidepost- Deerbrook community since June 2021. Our now 3-year-old daughter is in Children's House and absolutely thriving under the warm and compassionate guidance of her teachers, Miss Karly and Miss Ellie. The mixed age classroom is such a wonderful model that is challenging her to meet her full potential, and the teachers and materials are of the highest caliber. Our 1-year-old son has been in the Nido classroom for almost 4 months now and we have only incredible things to say about Miss Sonia and Miss Jenny who create such a nurturing environment. Miss Sonia has made such an effort to get our shy son comfortable and thriving in his new environment, all the while helping me to feel comfortable with the transition as well. He is making leaps and bounds with his motor skills and social skills thanks to their guidance. The leadership of the school is also absolutely top-notch. Christine and Abbey are warm, friendly, organized, and so enthusiastic about running the best possible school for our children. They know all of the kids and families so well and have fostered a caring and inclusive community that we feel lucky to be a part of!

We've been with the Guidepost for a couple of months and it's been an outstanding experience! Teachers and staff are friendly and resourceful, and communication is prompt and clear. I compared over 10 daycares thoroughly prior to sending him here and I'm very happy with my decision.

I love that my little one does a variety of creative and fun activities daily with Montessori philosophy as a foundation. I feel sincere care and love from the teachers and staff here, and I appreciate the teachers taking the time to do a parent-teacher conference to share detailed feedback on the child. It helps parents understand where we can better support him to enjoy his day and grow.

I also like that the school puts lots of effort into building a community. The monthly gatherings/ events for families and kids, sending out weekly newsletters, and having a FB family communication page... they go above and beyond!

I highly recommend Guidepost to my family and friends!

The moment I walked into Guidepost I instantly felt at ease. I knew this was exactly where my kids were going to flourish. I had done extensive research on childcare and the Montessori way of life. And I knew that I wanted my kids to be an environment where they felt listened to, cared for and could grow independently. This school has checked off all our wants and needs plus more. They truly treat your kids as if they are their own. I couldn’t have asked for a more prefect school.  We have been at Guidepost for 2 years. Starting in the young toddler house to now children’s house. We love the staff, especially Mrs. Christine and Ms. Abbey and ALL they do for us. Every single teacher is so patient, kind and loving. Ms. Karly, Ms. Ellie, Ms. Ariel and Ms. Hayley have truly changed my now 4 year olds lives for the better and we couldn’t be happier with our experience! If you are looking for a home away from home for your kids, this is the place!!

I cannot recommend Guidepost Montessori Deerbrook enough! After moving to the suburbs in May of 2021, I needed childcare for my now 3.5 year old (who was in daycare in the city) and 16 month old. We were still looking for a house, so I ended up researching 21 childcare options all over the Northshore to find one that fit our needs, and Guidepost instantly felt like the right place. The facility is clean, spacious, and beautiful, the administrators and teachers are amazing, and the hours/days of operation can't be beat (very few closures, flexible with part time for my newborn!). It is such a warm, welcoming community of families and staff, and my kids are thriving. We have been in all of the classrooms over the past 1.5 years (Nido, Young Toddler, Toddler, Children's House) and have had a great experience with each. I feel like the teachers and admin truly know and love my kids, which makes it easier for me to go to work every day. We are so happy to be part of the Guidepost family!

We were so lucky to find Guidepost Montesorri School, and so thrilled to have my kids grow and learn from toddler through prekindergarten program. Excellent administration team with detailed planning and excellent execution and communications. Really love the mixed age group setting at Children’s house, where younger kids can learn from older kids, the older kids learn to teach and be kind to younger kids. All the learnings can’t be done without the best teachers at Children’s House, in my opinion. Highly recommended for families who are looking for high quality early childhood education, kids to be more independent and responsible. Thanks again, Guidepost Montesorri School!

More than a year in, I have to come back to reinforce the amazing experience our family is having at Guidepost.
