  Today was the first day my daughter went to Creative Kids Academy. All I have to say is WOW!!!
  The attention to detail in the care they provided to my daughter blew my mind. I was updated in real time of all the things my daughter did, the kind of food they gave her was fantastic, the amount of pictures of her that were uploaded was great. All of the important things one hopes for in a daycare are there. I feel good knowing my daughter is in good hands while I'm not there. THANK YOU!

  We sent our son to Choo Choo for two years of preschool and one year of kindergarten from 2012-2015, and we had such a positive experience that we're doing the same with our daughter, who has done preschool there and will be starting kindergarten in the fall (2021). The owner, Natasha, has done an excellent job with both of our kids who have fairly different personalities. I'm impressed with her ability to get young children to enjoy doing their learning activities with a soft touch. I didn't have an opinion one way or the other about the Montessori approach and materials when my son started, but after seeing it in practice at Choo Choo, I'm very positive about how the style enhances educational development.
  
  One aspect of Choo Choo that has worked well for our family is that they've been very accommodating of our family's schedule. We've had to change hours a few times to make it work with our home life needs, and they've always been open to rearranging the schedule as long as it fits the staffing requirements (state rules for staff members per children that varies by age).
  
  The only negative is that there is some staff turnover, but I believe that it's at rates that are pretty typical for the industry. Overall, we've had such good luck with Choo Choo that it's one of the factors we're delaying a move from the area so that my daughter can attend kindergarten there. I strongly recommend Choo Choo for developing your children's social skills and education.

  This daycare is amazing! My daughter was 4 months old when she started at choo choo but the teachers were working on sign language and teaching her about nature already. They are really passionate about working with the kids and are very genuine people. I know my daughter was loved and cared for there. I definitely recommend it for any age child.

  We sent our daughter to Choo Choo for her last year of preschool. Their curriculum and structure did wonders for her reading and writing ability. The progress she made during the year was amazing and has put her ahead now going into Kindergarten. They have her reading writing with 1st and 2nd graders. I would definitely recommend sending your child here . You will not be disappointed once you see his/her growth each month.

  We had such a wonderful experience in the infant room at Choo Choo Montessori. Our little guy started there at 4 months, and we were sad to leave, but we moved out of state. The infant teacher, Miss Christine, is wonderful. She's capable, calm and respectful. Our LO loved her - and we already miss her. The things we appreciated about Miss Christine and the infant classroom.... first and foremost, they follow the AAP rules and Montessori teaching style. You hear such terrible stories about how kids are treated at daycare when parents aren't watching, but I never had these worries there. They always put babies to sleep in a crib (not a swing, bouncer, car seat, etc.), without blankets and on their backs. They engage the kids (even infants) in structured activity - we received sweet hand/foot paint artwork and a father's day card that we cherish - they even brought in a petting zoo for a day! You'll see teachers on the floor with the kids. They don't own swings or jumpers, so kids aren't "babysat" by these devices. They clean everything daily - our LO never got sick! Our little guy is a ball of energy and can be a handful some days, but Miss Christine handled him with grace - she even talked about how much she loved his fiery spirit. Plus, my LO grew quickly in his developmental stages with Miss Christine's help - he was crawling in no time! The infant room is never less than 4:1 kids/teacher ratio and usually 3:1, sometimes 2:1. Also, I worked nearby, so I often popped in at random times throughout the day, and I always approved of the care I witnessed during my pop-in's. The only thing I wished were different was that the infant room was rather chilly - we dressed him in long sleeves and pants in the summer. But, all told, we truly will miss Miss Christine and Choo Choo Montessori, and I'm glad they were our little guy's first daycare experience.
