Great school network My daughter has been in Guidepost since 6 mo. She is now 3.5 and super independent. Sometimes I feel like she is “too independent” (*face palm smiley*). She has attended multiple locations during her tenure at Guidepost and every transition was unexpectedly easy for our a bit shy and reserved child. I believe this could be a very important aspect to families that move around a lot. All locations are beautiful AND look the same AND teachers approach children in the similar manner. This provides so needed reassurance to the child in the tumultuous times of the move. Whether it is a geographical move or transition up to a different program.

A safe school environment that helps my children thrive Guidepost Montessori has been one of the best decisions for our family because of the nurturing environment, the caring teachers, and great community for parents to join. Both of my children attend one of the Guidepost locations in Northern Virginia and I have seen their love of learning grow throughout the two years they've attended school. Above all, both of my children are so eager to learn new things, feel comfortable and confident to ask questions, and have truly grown into the Guidepost value of 'Grace & Courtesy'. They are so sweet and kind and always happy when I pick them up from school. It makes me feel reassured as I really struggled with drop-off when they first started. It's also great to see how much they have both began learning in the areas of mathematics, literacy, and practical life. They are 4 and 2 years old. My 4 year old can count to 20 and is learning addition, subtraction, and has been introduced to multiplication. My son confidently says his ABC's, prepares his own food for snacks at home (like cutting with plastic knives!), and knows all of his colors in English and Spanish. I would definitely recommend Guidepost Montessori to parents that want to help their children grow into capable human beings. I feel that the foundations for this education will shape how they function in their day-to-day lives as adults and am so happy I found this school.

Teachers are amazing Teachers are amazing. For what you pay you know your child will be cared for and the curriculum is amazing. My daughter loves her teachers and adores them. Her vocabulary has skyrocketed and her practical life skills she does at home daily because of what they teach her. Montessori is a such a beautiful thing.

Great start for my 1yo We made the decision to start our daughter in the Montessori Together program at a nearby Guidepost school when she was about 7 months. It's been great to watch her world expand as she meets other children, and as my wife and I connect with other families. The community of families has been great for us as new parents, and we feel well taken care of the attentive team at our daughter's school.

My 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.
