The Pouch was home to all three of my daughters! It is the most loving and enriching environment. The teachers are wonderful, caring, and truly care about the kids health, well being, growth and development, and of course fun! You will not find a better daycare for your kids! Highly recommend! The dual language instruction makes it even more special!
Yadira RoseminMar 5, 2025I called and emailed this school for over 6 months, and no one ever answered the phone or returned my attempts to reach out. II even applied there through DOE 3k program. I'm not sure how anyone gets their kids into this school.
Geeta BelasNov 19, 2024We are so happy that our daughter is at The Pouch! She is thriving- She is starting to speak in Spanish as well as English. She loves her teachers and she is happy there. One could really feel the love and care from every teacher there. Children often visit the local library and they have music class organized at The Pouch. After I pick her up, I get the report with her photos and videos on the app. But the best thing about The Pouch is that they cook organic food for the children- 3 meals a day!!! I am recommending this amazing place to any parent looking for a daycare.
Daria KaricDec 16, 2022We spent a Tuesday morning at Montessori Pouch and enjoyed it so much. The space is bright and lovely; and the instructors were sweet and so good with the children. The toys and set up were true to Montessori, and Mariana, the founder, showed us the Montessori curriculum books and materials used. We were just doing research for 6 months from now, but were very tempted to start right away. When we are ready, we are definitely going to return to The Pouch.
Jacqueline KookSep 23, 2019I personally know the director of this program as a coworker and as a parent as well and I can say she’s excellent she truly cares about children and learning she’s very resourceful very talented responsible and one of a kind I recommend her services at her childcare center and I know any parent will be completely happy and satisfied children learn in a fun way with music songs and developmentally appropriate approach she’s also a great team player down to earth and it’s excellent human being I know your child will be safe happy , learning and thriving / por este medio quiero recomendar a la directora de este cuidado de niños infantil ella es muy respetuosa inteligente amorosa con los niños está bien educada y realmente conoce como los niños crecen se desarrollan y aprenden es tremenda compañera maestra ,tremenda madre y tremenda persona con mis ojos cerrados la recomiendo y sé que usted y sus niños estarán seguros felices y satisfechos es una persona que va más allá de lo que se necesita para que su niño esté feliz y Y aprenda mucho mucho éxito adelante
