  We have been at the school for three years since they opened. We have been experiencing many issues. This is my second child so it's not my first rodeo. There is a constant smell in the some classrooms that haven't been addressed no matter how much parents complain, there is a clear circulation issue, the place smells like diapers most of the time. The level of teachers is very variable and there's very little room for feedback, they never send surveys or attempt to communicate with parents to ask for any feedback. When it's their time to give feedback though, they don't hold back. The teachers complain a lot about children level and continuously ask the parents to help with the educational process, as parents should of course, but it feels like they shift most of the responsibility on the parent and every meeting consists of teachers complaining about progress to parents as if this is not part of their job description. Classes are overly filled and this could be contributing to the problem. Every time we try to speak to management to understand how we can help the student progress, they are evasive and there are very little changes. Not really what is promised. I wish they had any form of communication with parents to ask for feedback and to attempt to improve, but it seems that they don't care for that.

  We recently enrolled our daughter at LAPM and truly cannot say enough positive things about our experience. From the beginning, the school has felt incredibly warm, welcoming, and caring, and we feel very lucky to have found it. The staff is wonderful. Ms. Cindy and Ms. Cassandra personally welcome every student by name when they arrive, which is such a small but meaningful touch. Our daughter’s teachers — Ms. Alyssa, Ms. Koyal, and Ms. Swathi — are incredibly patient, kind, and thoughtful. It’s clear how much they genuinely care about the kids, and we’re so grateful to have them as role models for our daughter. We’ve also been really impressed by how much thought goes into each day. There’s a great balance of Montessori-style learning and play, with STEM, art, practical skills, and physical activity mixed in. Our daughter is constantly surprising us by coming home and talking about something new she learned at school. The facility is always clean, safe, and welcoming, and communication with parents is excellent. We love getting regular updates about what the kids are learning, along with photos and videos that give us a little glimpse into our daughter’s day. But the best testament to LAPM is how much our daughter genuinely loves being there. She looks forward to school every morning — and sometimes even asks to go on the weekends! She comes home talking about her teachers, her friends, and everything she did that day, and as parents, it makes us so happy knowing she’s somewhere she feels comfortable, cared for, and excited to learn. We’re incredibly grateful to everyone at LAPM and couldn’t be happier with our experience. We would wholeheartedly recommend the school to any family considering it.

  A Beautiful Journey of Growth and Discovery Our hearts are filled with a profound sense of gratitude as our second daughter completes her kindergarten journey at this wonderful school. We are leaving with nothing but a treasury of beautiful, lifelong memories. Heartfelt Gratitude to Exceptional Educators Ms. Rinku: A special note of deepest appreciation goes to Ms. Rinku, whose unwavering dedication and nurturing guidance beautifully sustained and inspired our daughter’s love for learning over two incredible years. Our Pillars of Support: We are equally grateful to Ms. Seema for taking care of my kid in the first year. Ms. Selva, Ms. Chitra, Ms. Cassandra, and Ms. Cindy, who surrounded our daughter with kindness, offering a helping hand and a warm smile at every single step of the way. Nurturing the Mind and Soul The teachers did not just teach; they gently sparked her innate curiosity across every discipline, turning everyday lessons into moments of pure wonder: Art & Creative Expression: They unlocked her imagination, encouraging her to express her vibrant inner world through beautiful colors, textures, and creative masterpieces. Math & Science: With incredible patience, they transformed numbers and logic into a captivating game, while fostering a deep awe for the natural world through hands-on scientific discovery and exploration. Reading & Writing: They opened the doorway to literacy, guiding her from her very first letters to confidently weaving her own stories and developing a foundational love for reading that will last a lifetime. A Sanctuary for Learning The campus itself is a breath of fresh air—immaculately maintained, pristine, and bathed in an abundance of natural light and open space that invites curiosity. Coupled with the school’s incredibly generous and accommodating policies, we experienced absolute peace of mind. Every morning, the moment we dropped her off, all our worries simply vanished, knowing she was safe, cherished, and thriving. Thank you for being such a magical foundational chapter in our daughter's life!

  We are so grateful to the amazing teachers and staff at this daycare. They helped our son feel safe, loved, and comfortable during his transition. The teachers are caring, patient, and always communicate thoughtfully with parents. We’ve seen so much growth in our child socially and emotionally. Thank you for creating such a warm and nurturing environment for the kids!

  Fantastic school! The teachers are so loving and professional. Our little one looks forward to going every day, and we’ve seen great progress in his communication and confidence. Highly recommend Learn and Play Montessori for any parent of toddlers 1–3! Also, the font desk staffs are very friendly and helpful.
