Guidepost Montessori At Las Flores

My son has been at Las Flores Guidepost since Nido and is now in Children’s House.  Throughout the years, he has learned numerous everyday life skills and adapted to be more independent when executing them. He enjoys going to school and is very passionate to show off his skills when he is at home. Keeping a child engaged, curious, and eager to learn is worth every penny over daycare. I highly recommend you to tour this campus and speak to the staff (and other families if you get to) to see what the school has to offer.

My 4 year old daughter is currently in the Children's house and loving it! I especially appreciate the strong focus on practical life, which has helped develop her sense of independence and self care tremendously. The guides in the classroom helped make her transition so smooth and easy and right away new what level she was at cognitively and social/emotionally. The Head of School is always present and available for any questions and super approachable. I also really like how happy the guides seem which indicates a comfortable and joyful environment. and in the end, thats what matters the most to me!

Our eldest and now youngest children have attended the nido program and we can’t be more thrilled with the advancements that our children showed from a very early age. I would highly recommend to any parent who wants a school based in original Montessori principles, is safe, clean and professional.

Edit: We attended prior to the pandemic and have attended again for the past 10 months. They had a change of leadership during that time and I can say the current leadership is exceptional, even exceeding the original leadership we experienced.

Fantastic school, Fantastic teachers.  The kind of early life education I was looking for and found. My daughter loves her teachers so much and has developed so many amazing new skills.

Unfortunately I have two update this review......
Unfortunately I do have to update this review. I can no longer, in any good conscience, recommend this particular Montessori. I will not go into specifics, however I will say this….This Montessori was AMAZING when they first opened and stayed good for quite some time. Then just after covid began, the head of hte school who was awesome left. Very quickly after the new head of school began, it slowly and consistently began going downhill.

Unfortunately and sadly, I’ve had to talk to my own daughter about how to protect herself when other kids are hurting her. I never thought I would have had to have that talk while my children were at Montessori, but it happened.

I will say this. Some of the guides here are great, the majority are so-so, and a few which is more than it should be, should’nt be working there at all. The overall problem is that this Montessori is now highly mismanaged, and that has trickled all the way down. Issues that are brought up to the head of school do not get resolved, rather a temporary band aid. It has become so bad that a HUGE chunk of parents have removed their kids from this place. Quite a few kids were soon to be ready to move out of this school as well, however parents have pulled their kids out months early due to the issues. Numerous complaints have been made by numerous parents, and a lot of the guides are no longer happy as well.

Hopefully this place makes the necessary changes in management, because the good guides that are there deserve it. Unfortunately though, I can no loner recommend this location.

Love Guidepost Montessori Las Flores. My child has been going there since he was an infant and is now going on 5 years old. Everyone is so welcoming, kind, patient, and nurturing to my child. I would highly recommend this location to anyone!<br><br>Special kudos to Ms. Anne, Ms. Floreta, Mr. Andy and Mr Nicolas!

I think it&#39;s long due that I give credit to this wonderful school and teachers. I had my 3 year old and 2 (at the time) at the school. <br><br>From the day we started, to the day we finished, I felt my children were loved. For different reason, we had to leave. There are a few things the school needs to improve on, but the love and dedication of the teachers are unparalleled.
