What parents say

• Tracey Nguyen

  We've made the right decision starting our daughter at Blooming Lives Montessori. She has been developing such wonderful life skills and language skills. You can tell that the teachers and staffs at this school care deeply for the students. The principle, Leyla, is super involved and she communicates and makes sure to help me and my daughter through the transition period. So thankful for all of them!

  Blooming Lives Montessori is truly a “miracle school” I found when I had almost given up. After visiting nearly every daycare and school near my home and feeling disappointed again and again, I was close to losing all hope. Then, almost like a miracle, I discovered Blooming Lives Montessori. Meeting the principal, Leyla, was the moment I knew this school was different. She feels like an angelic presence — she even looks like Ms. Rachel, and the way she speaks, her tone, and her patience are strikingly similar. Every time I communicate with her, she greets me with a warm smile and answers every question with genuine care and patience. You truly feel respected, understood, and reassured. She has a natural, calming energy that puts both children and parents at ease — like a real-life Ms. Rachel that all toddlers instantly love. Not only are children drawn to her, but parents also find their anxieties slowly melting away after talking with her. Since starting at Blooming Lives Montessori, my child adjusted far more smoothly than I ever expected. As a parent, what stands out to me the most is how deeply the teachers care about the children. They are patient, professional, and genuinely respectful of each child. Children here are not simply being “managed,” but are truly seen and guided as individuals. The teachers are incredibly attentive to children’s emotions and developmental details, and they communicate with parents in a timely, honest, and thoughtful way, which brings so much peace of mind. The Montessori philosophy here is not just a label — it is thoughtfully integrated into daily routines and learning. Children naturally develop focus, independence, and confidence in this environment. The school itself is clean, safe, well-organized, and filled with warmth. You can truly feel that this is a place where children are seen, understood, and supported. I am deeply grateful to the principal, teachers, and the entire Blooming Lives Montessori team for creating such a warm, stable, and loving environment for children to grow. I would wholeheartedly recommend this school to any parent searching for the right place for their child.

  Sending my son to Blooming Lives Montessori Schools was hands down one of the best decisions I've ever made! Every teacher cares so much about him and the principal, Leyla, is extremely kind and super involved with not just my son, but also every other student in the Montessori. The care they have for their students is shown so naturally through their day to day interactions with the kids. For example, on one random afternoon, I picked up my son around 5:30pm and I saw one of the teachers just reading with him one on one! On another day, when I picked up him at 5:45pm, one of the teachers were playing with him one on one. After attending Blooming lives, my son's speech improved dramatically, along with his interests in exploring several different Montessori toys and other life skills as well! I wish Blooming lives was open until grade 8 and I would just keep my son there forever! If you are looking for a place to send your kids to school, I highly recommend Blooming lives! They will take care of your kids like their own and your kids will be happy to go to school everyday :)

  Ms. Leyla and the team at Blooming Lives Montessori have been super accommodating and nurturing for our little one. They have created a positive learning environment with a calming and safe atmosphere. We had to move mid-year and found that our daughter fit right in, with no disruption, and has been thriving since joining BLM. We have been impressed with the attention she has been given and the developmental leaps she has made. This is a testament to all of the staff and teachers at the school. In addition, Ms. Leyla was fair, flexible and approachable regarding our needs for enrollment, which is uncommon with many Montessori programs. We are super grateful to her and BLM, and encourage all parents that are considering starting their little ones in Montessori to strongly consider BLM. They are doing thing the right way.
