The best decisions we ever made as parents was bringing our 16 months old daughter to Shinning Light Montessori School. The care, academics and the thoughtfulness of all the staff and admin was absolutely amazing. I cannot recommend the school enough. Thank you to Ms. Gabriella and all the entire staff for all your hard work and dedication to not only the school but to our daughter who have thrived so much! Thank you everyone.

I am extremely happy with our decision to enroll my child at Shining Light Montessori. The staff, led by the wonderful Gabriella, demonstrates unwavering dedication and care for every child. Gabriella's commitment shines through in the thoughtful emails she sends, ensuring that the school meets the needs of all attending children. I have also witnessed significant growth in my child's confidence, independence, and love for learning and playing during the time at the school. I appreciate the convenient app communication during my child's time in the toddler room, as well as the weekly pictures provided once they joined the Casa class. Additionally, I have thoroughly enjoyed the summer outdoor concert and winter indoor concert events. My child has such a great time here. We highly recommend this school to any parent seeking a school that truly cares about the kids well being and growth. Thank you, Gabriella, and the entire staff at Shining Light Montessori for the outstanding work you do in shaping young minds and nurturing a love for learning.

Finding Shinning Light was a true blessing for us and our family!!! Ms. Gabriella and the entire teaching crew always went above and beyond and beyond and beyond to take care of our little one. Everyone is so genuine, kind, and friendly. We had the opportunity to interact with the teaching staff daily, and we were always very pleased. To anyone who is unsure about sending their little one to daycare, especially in the toddler stage, we HIGHLY recommend Shinning Light. Ms. Janessa and Ms. Ruchira are super attentive, and we couldn't have asked for better teachers. Ladies thank you for putting your heart and soul into taking care of our little ones. God bless you all!

We were so lucky that my brother-in-law introduced us to Shining Light Montessori after having sent both of his children. Gabriella and the teaching staff are so caring, attentive, friendly, knowledgeable and just overall amazing. Our son was quite timid in new environments. We enrolled him in the toddler class, and over the years he has moved up to Casa. It has been such a joy to watch him grow and blossom, and see how happy and comfortable he became with all his teachers and friends. And I truly owe that to the wonderful teachers, who have guided him through his school journey. We are excited to watch our little girl now go through her journey at Shining Light! Gabriella is so diligent in sending all the information that you might need through regular email updates. When your child is in toddler, you can use the app to get daily updates on their day, be it how they are napping, eating and diapering. In both toddler and Casa, you get pictures sent a few times a week/weekly. It's so fun to see your child's activities or play time with friends through these pictures, moments that you might be missing, but can get a sense of comfort seeing that they are thriving. Thank you so much Gabriella and team, I couldn't imagine leaving my children in better hands. We are so grateful for all the work that you do!

My daughter attended Shining Light Montessori a year before she started JK. Right away we noticed how much she was learning and developing. She would come home excited about learning and already knowing about things such as the solar systems, plant life, countries etc. They have such a wonderful staff and the activities they have like yoga, water play day, science day etc. are amazing because it keeps the kids get excited. I recommend this Montessori to anyone because they truly take the time with your kid and care for them emotionally and mentally. Big thanks to the teachers and helpers there!
