Great school! The staff is very caring, kind, and professional. The best part - they are Montessori trained and Montessori education makes a big difference in the development of the kiddos. The school takes infants, which is great for working parents because you know your baby is in great hands while you’re away.

Weve been at Riverchase Montessori for 2.5 years. My kids have been well cared for and loved on by all the staff. Our barely 5 year old is already reading well and more than prepared to start Kindergarten in the fall. Our 7 year old who just finished 1st grade was able to get back up to speed (tested at 2nd/3rd grade level) after a rough Kindergarten year at public school due to teacher changes / COVID shutdown. Both kids have grown socially, emotionally, and academically during our time here.

We are very happy for choosing Riverchase Montessori for our daughters preschool. Both her teachers (Ms.Myra and Ms.Anushya) have helped her blossom into well rounded five year old.

Riverchase Montessori always took spectacular care of our family. We had children go through every level of the school, from newborn to after-school care, up to 4 at a time in attendance, and we always felt that are children were deeply cherished and cared for. The school prepared our children for life by teaching them not only to read and do mathematics at a much higher level than I expected but also social skills and allowing them to grow and be independent. The school will always hold a special place in hearts and the hearts and minds of our children.

My daughter attended school here for just under 2 years. Her first year, I have nothing but amazing things to say - she was well cared for, felt safe, and learned so much. Miss Myra was an all star and truly loves the kiddos. I am so thankful to her and for her influence on my littles growth/development. If I was rating on just this experience, it would be a 5 star review.Fast forward to her 2nd year - she moved up a class room and was placed with Miss Mitra. That was a horrendous experience for me and my child. I would never recommend her as a teacher. My daughter came home telling me about how she was harshly scolded and stated she didnt want to go to school anymore. When I addressed some issues with the teacher, I was told outrageous things.My newly three year old couldnt properly wipe after using the restroom and I would pick her up with disgusting underwear - she got infections that resulted in antibiotics because they were not monitoring her in the restroom and helping her to clean. After it was brought to the attention of the director, I was instructed to bring wet wipes with her and they would watch it. Several times after that, I had to speak with them again to finally resolve the situation.If you cannot wipe a child, what else are you missing/not watching? Should have been my first warning sign!The straw that broke the camels back was a biting incident. It was brought to my attention that she had bit someone, the teacher told me she said Next time you bite someone, I will call the dentist and he will take all your teeth out. Are you kidding me?! Who in their right mind makes the dentist a scary thing for a child...? I was so shocked and it sealed my decision to remove her.I will give the director kuddos - she handled my concerns well and changed my daughters classroom but the damage was already done. My daughter went from loving school to hating it and wanting nothing to do with going. As COVID started, I made the decision to pull her and take a break from all schools. We did not return and I wouldnt recommend this school to anyone. I cannot believe that an institution would employ someone who makes such poor choices with children. Scaring them into doing what you want is such an inappropriate tactic and their lack of concern around her health was very concerning.

My boys(3.5 years old) started at Riverchase Montessori awhile back. Our first meet with Ms Annie & her staff was so comforting that we didnt have any second thoughts about the enrollment. Ms Annie personally looks at needs & care that each child would need and accomodate accordingly. My boys love their school. They make learning fun. I am grateful for the care and guidance they receive. The boys have learnt so much and continue to share with us the great activities that go on each day at school!. Thank you to Riverchase Montesssori for an incredible early childhood curriculum that engages and teaches at all steps of the day, and a special thanks to Ms Annie and her staff(Ms Anusha & Ms Mitra), especially during these pandemic times; they continue to do amazing work. We definitely recommend the school to our family & friends.

We have had all three children in the school and daycare over the last five years. We couldn’t be happier with the learning structure that has given our children a great foundation of confidence and capabilities. Hats off to all of the teachers and administrators we have had the pleasure of interacting with from 2yr old daycare to 2nd grade!

We love this school. It has groomed my daughter very well and she has got admission to green hill without any struggle. When she came out of her interview she said they asked her baby questions. At the age of 4-5 she knew how to add in thousands, add logic while applying mathematic skills, read and write journals and be an all rounder. Her teacher Ma Celine is an excellent resource and we can’t thank the school enough for all of this and more. Our daughter loves the schoolAnd the staff and they really do take care of the kids like their own. The school is very flexible and they even pick up my daughter from her elementary school for after care. It was indeed a lone of our best decisions. We truly love the school.

Our son has spent over three years at this school building skills for life. We are delighted to see the growth in his development. The curriculum is great and the teachers do a wonderful job. He loves all the learning activities, including Yoga, Music, PE. We spoke to our little one about the habit of learning good, eating good, and playing good. Our experience is that this school epitomizes those concepts to our delight.With Gratitude.

Appreciative of the kindness, love, care and attention the school has given to both our kids over the past year. Healthy menu is the first of the many good things we have experienced here. Special attention on the healthy items; and you can tell, Ms. Anne (owner & administrator) is often in the kitchen in an impressive red apron. My 6 year old (now 7) loves the lunch menuAlso very enthusiastically approving of the curriculum that has kept my daughter challenged at an advanced level; plus the after school extracurricular she enjoys being part of.Plus the leadership skills she is starting to grow ( thanks to her teacher ). The teachers and Ms. Carmen (curriculum director) are inspiring to talk to; and discuss road map about her learning goals; progress - which is so helpful.We have our 6 month old going to the infant program here .He likes. The facility is kept so clean you can smell the freshness, brand new feeling. The infant program teacher is terrific about cleanliness, order, hygiene and organization in the room. My daughter has been to two previous day care/school before. The cleanliness here is by far the best.Love the pickup time from school. The kids’ faces tell at all. Beatific smiles!!

We switched my daughter here when she was 9months old because she was CONSTANTLY sick at her old daycare. Once she was here she literally wasnt sick again. It was a huge relief to have a healthy baby and not be missing work and visiting the doctor constantly. The facility is new and clean and I appreciate their policy regarding sick kiddos coming to school. The food is FRESH and so healthy. I feel like they are truly helping my daughter develop healthy food habits for life by exposing her to foods, such as lentils, so early in life. The teachers and staff are all awesome. You will not be disappointed.

Our daughter has been attending for 3 years now. She loves her school (teachers and classmates) and is always impressing me with what she is learning. I have 2 older children who attended elsewhere and their preschool experience pales in comparison. Ms. Annie and Ms. Carmen are very approachable and willing to help accommodate any needs we have. What is priceless is how my daughter has developed a love for learning that has helped advance her in math and reading.

We highly recommend Riverchase Montessori. Our daughter had a wonderful time there and was consistently happy at the end of the day. The staff is loving, helpful, and responsive. The facility always felt very clean, organized, spacious and safe. The atmosphere is peaceful which we found conducive for our daughters learning. We unfortunately moved away from the area but have yet to find a comparable daycare.

Someone has really designed and manages this place for only one purpose - to take care of the growth of children. The school is so clean, provides fresh daily cooked nutritious meals for the children, the staff are so good and loving. I could go on and on. Ms Carmen and Ms Annie lead the school with a fervor I find missing in these chain schools. I give Riverchase Montessori a BIG THUMBS UP.

The Great Experience started at the entrance itself. They have a Keypad and if you dont belong there, you cant even get in. Very Secure. I felt good for my daughter - knowing that she is safe there.Even inside, the Director (Ms Carmen) and the other lady (Annie) were very welcoming and knowledgeable. Very well laid out classrooms, the teachers are so caring and they actually teach the children!! (Not just babysit them).My daughter spent two days there before we committed. And, she was very happy and well taken care of. What a great find!

Our 3 yr old son has been at this school only 3 weeks, but, is so in love with the school and teachers that we have heard him bragging to his older sister how his school is better than her school.And last Friday, after their romp in the Water Splash park in the school, he woke up Saturday morning and wanted to go to school to play in the water park again. I am so glad he enjoys the school so much. We have been telling all our neighbors about this place.

Best combination of a good curriculum, a caring staff, and a fabulous playground have come together at this great new addition to the daycare scene in Coppell.My 2 yr old and her 4 yr old brother love this place. I am glad we moved them here as soon as found out about this great Montessori.Highly recommend you tour this facility - youll also become a booster for them.

I trust my children under the care of Ms. Carmen. No one knows and properly applies the Montessori method like she does as well as combining a safe atmosphere for children to thrive in. She has decades of experience and decades of students to show for the fruits of her labors. Under her direction, Riverchase is safe, thriving, and a true Montessori environment!

I couldnt thank Riverchase Montessori enough for the care they have provided. They have handled Covid19 very well. They really put the safety of children as #1 priority. #2 to me, is food. Real food, fruits and healthy snack are served. End of July 2021, my younger one bid his farewell because he has come of age to enter public school. He grew up in Riverchase Montessori. He started from Infant class when he was 6 weeks old. Once he could stand up and started a few baby steps, he was promoted to Infant II class. Not quite a toddler, not quite a newborn, this Infant II class is very important to avoid babies walking on babies. Then, time just flies in which he was promoted from class to class. In his final year of Kindergarten, my son learnt about the 8 planets in the solar system (when I learnt about planets in my days, there were 9, including Pluto). My son was so proud to teach me and I have to unlearn. Also, not only he knows all the 50 states + capital of each state in America, he knows continents around the world. Thanks to the diversity of his classmates, countries around the world are not merely names on map. The little brain connects Japan to classmate A, Germany to classmate B and so on. I am a proud mom to see my son enjoy going to school everyday. If I am pregnant again, I would definitely enroll our baby in Riverchase Montessori!My review 4 years ago:Riverchase Montessori is a daycare center where young children are looked after with care and love. The place is built with a specific purpose: taking care of children. Therefore, it is well designed, organized and safe; unlike some other daycare centers where the building itself is not children friendly. Everyone makes sure everything is in order. Teachers turnover rate is low. It ensures children learn in a continuous and progressive manner.

I moved my child from a daycare set up to a Montessouri hoping to get him ready for next school year but so so disappointed.This is the 3 rd week with Riverchase and I am already done with this school.Owner is looking for perfect little children, good luck to that because all 4 to 5 year olds love to play and if you not going to be patient enough to teach them the schedule for academics then why did you open this business?I am very disappointed with their lack of love for every kid.My child has been constantly picked on by both Director and Owner to a point of no return.There are sweet when enrollling you and quick to complain none stop if any challenges arise.In every group from different backgrounds you will get different children but from what I saw its 95% Indians,4% caucasians and 1% blacks huh?? I guess we will take our children to other schools who are more accomodating and have love for all skin colors.
