Parent Testimonials
“We love the community here at mighty sprouts. we have great relationships with the teachers, director, and owners. and we have made so many friends with the other parents. the school is diverse, Montessori focused, and full of love. we’re very happy here.”
Monica S (Current Parent)
“A large source of anxiety, especially in the world we live in, are who you choose to take care of your children when you are not around. I am beyond thrilled that we got our 2 enrolled in MSM. Not only do we feel secure in what they do educationally day to day, but the people they have on staff keeps me at ease. They love my kids and it shows. Thank you MSM!”
Alex S (Current Parent)
“As a parent I want the absolute best for my child and obviously I feel this way about this day care. I am not going to write a typical review about how clean, organized, professional, reliable and patience the teachers are because it’s evident… I’m trusting them with my 15 months boy; but I would like to say that it makes me really happy that I made the right decision for my baby when I see him smile and supper excited when he sees his teachers. That to me shows that he feels comfortable, loved and well taken care.”
Aisa P (Current Parent)
“My 2 daughters attend Mighty Sprouts Montessori and I can not be more pleased with not only the care they are given but the all around education they receive there. In just a short few months they have learned so much, my youngest has been so independent wanting to do things on her own, even cleaning up her own mess to putting away her toys. My oldest has become such a responsible 5 year old and the manners on her have changed drastically. The way she speaks to her younger sister, the way she tries to resolve conflicts and the way she expresses what she is feeling verbally has been mind blowing. All the teachers I have met are extremely sweet and supportive. The schools owner is a pediatric nurse which is a huge plus especially during times like this and the director is extremely accommodating and passionate about her job and her school. I have never been apart of a school for my kids where I felt apart of a family, we are not just some number added we matter and it shows ! I highly recommend this school to anyone in the area looking for a center for their child!”
Angela M (Former Parent)
“We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful experience our children had at this Montessori school over the past three years. This school truly embodies the concept of a “village” in the best possible way.
The professionalism of the staff is unmatched, and their dedication to creating a nurturing and enriching environment is evident in everything they do. The school’s commitment to fostering a diverse and inclusive community has been particularly meaningful to us.
We greatly appreciated the thoughtful extras like Parent-Nights-Out, which provided much-needed respite and a chance to connect with other parents. The in-house birthday parties were always a hit with the kids, and the Parent Advisory Committee offered a valuable platform for parent engagement and feedback.
We will genuinely miss the amazing staff and the sense of community they’ve built. Their passion for early childhood Montessori education and their unwavering support for every child is truly inspiring. Thank you for everything.”

“The Mighty Sprouts Montessori Center is an ESSENTIAL source of community and support in my family’s life. The center director hires excellent educators who pour love and care and intention into the encouragement, nourishment, and learning of each child in the center. My son has been enrolled for the last two years, and every step of the way, from the infant room when he was just twelve months old, to the toddler room, to the preschool room, he has had incredible social development and made wonderful little friends. He loves going to school each day, we get detailed updates via an app throughout the day about Montessori learning cycles, naps, and meals, and when he comes home every day he can’t wait to tell us the amazing things he has learned. It is a wonderful, warm, social family atmosphere. My daughter, who will be born in a matter of days, will begin as a student in the infant room at 3 months of age, and I have every confidence that she will benefit from having sweet teachers who are wonderful collaborators with her loving parents. It was very hard for me to make the decision to enroll my son in daycare, when he turned one, because there was no way for my husband and I to work and support our family otherwise. Finding Mighty Sprouts Montessori has been a profound blessing in our lives. As a PhD in education, I could not have more confidence in this investment in the growth of our kids.”
Stephanie W-L (Current Parent)
“Mighty Sprouts has always felt like a second home for us. While we’ve now enrolled our toddler in the Universal Pre-K program, we still rely on Mighty Sprouts for secondary care, and our little one loves returning—whether it’s to visit her friends, her teachers, or the Director. The Director runs a well-organized program, keeping parents consistently informed about changes, staffing updates, and last-minute adjustments due to inclement weather. After going through the Pre-K process, we’ve appreciated how smoothly things ran at Mighty Sprouts. If you’re looking for a nurturing, community-based environment with caring teachers and a highly communicative Director who ensures everything runs seamlessly, Mighty Sprouts is the place for your child.”
Kenia M. (Current Parent)
“Mighty Sprouts in East Hanover is incredible! The staff is so nice and caring. Judith, the director, is on top of everything and makes sure that all the children feel safe and loved. The staff communicates with my husband and me throughout the day about how our child is doing, sending us pictures with fun captions! Since starting Mighty Sprouts, our son has grown so much. He is more curious about toys at home and tries to speak to us more. The transition was hard for my son and me, but the staff, especially Ms. Frenchie, made me feel better and showed my son so much love – he laughs now when I drop him off. It’s a warm and loving environment and I am so glad we picked Mighty Sprouts Montessori!!”
“Mighty Sprouts is simply the best. When I drop off my son, I know he will be getting the best care. Saying the teachers and management are fantastic is an understatement. They provide a meal program and the kids help make it. They provide healthy and nutritious food and it saves me so much time in the morning not to think about! Also, when I look at the app and see everything my son is learning and the smile on his face, it makes me know I made the right choice. I highly recommend and trust Mighty Sprouts. I will be sending my 2nd son next year!”
“Enrolling our daughter at Mighty Sprouts is the best parenting decision we could have made. From our first tour, to our daughter’s first few weeks, and throughout her transition from infant class to toddler, everyone at Mighty Sprouts (Owners, Director, teachers – literally EVERY staff member) have gone above and beyond to make sure we feel at home and that our child’s individual needs are a priority. The center is immaculate, is owned by a nurse practitioner and run by a longtime educator and mom who has a background in special education, not to mention, every teacher has treated our daughter with genuine care, respect, and attentiveness. We have seen palpable developments in our 18 month old’s speech, socialization, hygiene practices, and level of independence – she even cleaned up after herself without being asked! Mighty Sprouts also employs very accessible technology that helps working parents who are always on the go have easy access to teachers and Director through their seamless app (detailed daily reports, multiple photos a day, easy payment options) and they even have a streaming service that allows us to see the classroom at all times, accessible from any device. Our family is truly so grateful to have found a home at MS – would 100% recommend to all families.”
