  The teachers are good, but management is bad at planning. My older son has gone through their program, advancing from their potty training class to preschool to pre-K. I am very impressed with his social and academic progress. He will be ahead of his peers when he starts preschool this fall. However, I don't like that he has had four different lead teachers in his preschool class in the past year. When I asked his last teacher how the kids were doing with the transitions, she had no idea she was the fourth year. My 3 year old son has been enjoying himself as well, but he has been potty trained for months, but they refuse to move him up to the "big kids" class because they don't have the room (and, apparently, won't hire more staff to acievethe ratios) in the already-potty trained classrooms. They tell me they'll make his curriculum more challenging and move him up in a year. I'm seriously considering moving him so that he can be with kids who are at the same developmental level.

  Our son has been attending Learn and Play Montessori Preschool in Niles, Fremont since April of this year. The staff at this preschool is effective with the children. Children seem to obey and respect their teachers more so then other preshools we had visited prior to enrolling our son here. The individual attention is excellent and the best part my son likes is the food. He never used to eat lunch at the previous day care/preschool but here he comes home with full stomach, which can be a blessing for a tired parent. We are very happy with this preschool and we highly recommend it.
