THE BEST SCHOOL EVER! As parents we always want to make the right decision for our children, and we are so grateful to have chosen Bloomingdale Children's House. Our son attended this school from his early 2 to almost 6 years of age. He started with Ms. Juliette's class, then moved on to Ms. Terjiana's class and then to Mr. Tim's class. Each year has been such an enriching year for our son. The school provided an extremely strong academic foundation to our son. Along with academics, they taught him good discipline, manners and etiquettes. They taught him to love and be respectful towards animals. Our son enjoyed the extracurricular activities that he had in the school like music class, gardening, art and crafts, knit loom scarf and blanket, story-time, reading in the library. They made gingerbread houses during Christmas and the teachers organize a great Christmas program every year. The class sizes are smaller and hence the teachers provide 1:1 attention to the students and they make sure that each student is challenged well according to their potential. The teachers demonstrate the concepts by relating them to real life examples that makes it easy for the kids to understand making their learning so much fun. I highly recommend this school. Thank you, Bloomingdale Children's house, for shaping our son the way he is today, and we could not have done it without your incredible efforts. Forever grateful to Ms. Juliette, Ms. Terjiana and Mr.Tim. God bless the teachers and the school. An outstanding school that provides a safe environment for the kids to grow academically, socially and morally.
My 3 1/2 year old Elliot has been at this School for 1 year. Elliot wakes up excited to go to school everyday. He is thriving in all areas - Social, Emotional and Academically. We are so blessed to have found this family again. They also took care of my oldest when he was little. Thank you Ms.Terijana, Ms.Juliette and Mr. Tim for all you do.
I feel really happy and blessed for choosing this school because my daughter, who is in pre-k, has learned so much different things. Everything the teachers teach is all very lovely and amazing. I have never seen my daughter so happy until she wakes up every morning knowing she’s going to her happy place.I definitely recommend this school for your kids.
I researched and toured numerous early childhood centers for my great granddaughter. After touring and talking to the owners and teacher, I knew this was the montessori school for my girl. This is a ministry to the entire staff and speaking as a former early childhood teacher, I would have loved to taught at this little school.
We have our son at this school and he absolutely loves it! He really likes the chickens, ducks and rabbits, and gets very excited when he can help feed the animals. Every Friday they do a “cooking class” and help instill a love of healthy food in the kids there. Montessori allows children more choice and teaches independence. The last school we were at had a horrible teacher-student ratio, but my son gets a lot more individual attention at Bloomingdale Children’s House and thus, his behavior has also improved. I knew we had found a great fit when I went to pick up my son the first day and there were bits of leaves in his hair from exploring a tree.
Terjiana, Tim , and Juliette. Since I have left three voicemails for the three of you, I will be coming in to the school to meet with you. This is Chase’s father and I’ll tell you , I always loved this school , I always thought we were doing best for our son by sending him here. The way my son has been treated the last few months and mostly few days has been horrible. I have no respect for someone who can call a five year old child a “liar.” As the three of you know I am no trouble and I would really like to just hear from you in person that my son was this “terrible” child. Since we never once heard that while he was going there. So if this is the case when I come in I would like to hear it from you , rather than from the internet that my son has been a “liar.” Thank you, look forward to either hearing back about my voicemails or meeting with you in person. ALSO , I would love to know which “friends” you have talked to that have said he is mean to their children. Since we do not hang out with ANYONE from the school. Again, I’d love to hear from you sooner than later. Thanks
I have been a part of the BCH family for 3 years now. Both my children have been blessed with having Ms. Fiona as their VPK teacher. They love school and have grown so much just being in this loving and supportive school environment. It's one thing to have love and support from home but to know that other adults care and respect them means the world to them. Thank you Bloomingdale children's house.
Bloomingdale Children' House is a great place for children. I have known Ms.Terjiana, Mr. Tim, Ms. Juliette, and Ms. Fiona since 2009. Seeing them interact with the children for such a long time, two things that they have in common are patience and love for the children. Ms. Melissa joined them later and shares the same values. Each of them, while teaching their classes, are constantly moving around and interacting with the kids. They are with the children - on the floor, at the little tables or on the playground- they become one among the children teaching them how to do a task or learn a new subject, but at the same time patiently allowing them to perform the task or do the exercise on their own. From a very young age they teach the children "how to fish", instead of doing things for them. For me that means patience and love. In this busy world that we live sometimes parents including myself don't have the patience to stay with the child until he/she is able to perform a simple task like picking up his/her own toys and leaving clean the space they are working with - instead we do it to be faster - not allowing the child to do the task on his/her own. Thats's definitely something your child will consistently learn here at Bloomingdale Children's House. If you want your child develop independence, discipline, good behavior manners, consistency, intelligence and get ready for school, I highly recommend Bloomingdale Children's House Montessori School. I'm the piano teacher at the school and have learned a lot from Ms. Juliette how to wait patiently for the natural outcome of the child after I explained to him/her how to play something on the piano.
