GBMoney over children This company has a dangerous set of priorities designed to keep tuition money rolling in by doing and saying whatever they feel will keep their customers (the parents) happy and blissful. Our 3 yo child spent almost an entire year getting socially shunned by most of their classmates, but nobody in the school thought of telling us. We also recently spoke to a former employee who knows about another student in dire need of early intervention therapy, but said that the school did not want to alert the parent because they were afraid of how the parent would react at the suggestion that their child was not developing totally normally. This should be a massive red flag to any parent who wants the best for their child, and is an extremely dangerous and irresponsible way to handle a pivotal time in early child development. A school ought to be the first to raise a flag if they have any concerns so that parents can make informed decisions and seek outside help if needed. Guidepost prefers to ignore the issue and avoid their role. Yuck.

GBHigh turnover ruins the environment Things started out well here but the high staff turnover led the center to essentially abandon the programming part way through the year. I feel like it has to be a culture/pay/systemic problem and the kids ultimately lose out the most.

GBMy son loves it here We've been a part of this daycare in the early days of its creation in December 2022. Like many daycares, we've navigated staffing changes and challenges in staff retention. However, what sets this daycare apart is the marked improvement and enthusiasm from the current leadership. Under the guidance of the new leader, who has been with the center for just a few months, we've witnessed a positive shift in the overall atmosphere. Kate came from the Marlborough GP location and is incredibly motivated to improve the school, ensuring Montessori is at its core. It's evident that they are motivated to create a nurturing environment, and this commitment reflects in the improved experiences for the children. Despite the usual challenges that come with daycare settings, I feel at ease every day dropping off my son. The staff's investment in him and genuine affection for the children is reassuring. Moreover, the daycare goes above and beyond by organizing regular out-of-school events such as parent get-togethers and creative activities like playdough making. These events not only foster a sense of community but also provide additional opportunities for the children to learn and have fun. The facility itself is a testament to the daycare's commitment to excellence. The beautiful lighting, a diverse range of toys for the children, and an ongoing dedication to facility improvements make it clear that they prioritize creating a positive and stimulating environment for the kids. The positive changes under the new leadership, coupled with their genuine care for the children and current commitment to improvement, make it a place where we are confident our son is not just cared for but truly nurtured. We look forward to witnessing further growth and success for this daycare.

GBRUN AWAY AS FAST AS YOU CAN We enrolled our daughters at this school and had the following experiences: Jaime Roush - head of the school - Sent an email to her "leadership" team attempting to label our daughters with a clinical diagnosis which we NEVER remotely alluding to being factual. When we asked her to provide us with a copy of whatever assessments she had conducted on our children, as well as the contact information for the licensed clinician which conducted aforementioned assessment, Jaime feigned complete and absolute ignorance before running to her "legal team" crying about how she was afraid of the big black man because he made her friend Lori Nelson Roulette cry. Once Lori was held accountable for her severe incompetence, unethical behavior, and borderline child abuse tendencies, she all of sudden "feared for the safety of her life" and could no longer have our children in her school. I wonder if Jaime/Lori would have utilized dog whistle covert racial phrases if I were white. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST

GBDirector at the Green Hills location in… Director at the Green Hills location in Nashville, TN is extremely rude and condescending. The staff is not helpful and all has bad attitudes.
