Ravenswood Montessori School

We loved our time at RMS.  Both our kids were here from age 2-4, and then transitioned to parochial PreK.  They are very different kiddos, but RMS worked with both their personalities.  My eldest started in a 2-year-old classroom with a teacher who was great, but moved on after a year, then she was in a 3-6-year-old classroom under Ms. Samina.  My youngest started with Ms. Violetta and then aged into a classroom with Ms. Ioana.  Mr. Muhammed was an assistant and music teacher, but now I think he leads his own classroom (my kids adored him).  The assistants are all fantastic, too; we heard a lot at home about Ms. Monica, Ms. Krystal, Ms. Zohra, and Ms. Francene. Ms. Ioana teaches ITALIAN in her classroom!  We were thrilled.  Several times, my daughter launched into counting in Italian, and could do it up through 20.  I think most of the other classrooms teach Spanish. Both kids loved their teachers, loved their friends, and loved the work.  Potty-training went off without a hitch, and the staff was great about stepping down naps when it was time.  They get the kids outside regularly.  We were pleased with the app, downloading a lot of the pictures and videos, and our girls still like to look at them and remember the work and their friends. Pre-covid, there were optional soccer and cooking classes for an additional fee.  And, once, we attended an evening parenting seminar that was educational.  Hopefully, those activities will come back someday.

We love Ravenswood Montessori! We can&#39;t say enough good things about this school. Our daughter started here when she was two years old, and has been here for several years. The teachers and the staff are incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and fantastic with the kids. I don&#39;t know much about Montessori before coming in, but it is so helpful that my daughter now that she is 4 years old is able to do so much on her own. She does a lot of independent play, she knows how to dress herself, she knows how to take dishes to the kitchen and wash them. This facility also did a really fantastic job and managing Covid. We have only had one closure in two years, which is pretty incredible given that most other facilities I know of have had to close down more often than that. My child comes home every day and talks about how much she loves playing with her teachers. The one small downside as we are not able to go in and visit classrooms because of Covid protocols at this time but I imagine this may change in the near future. I would highly recommend Ravenswood Montessori School to anyone looking for childcare!!
