Woolridge Montessori Academy 14000 Charter Park Drive, Midlothian, VA 23114

"Absolutely perfect. As an educator, we have experienced plenty of daycares that did not meet my expectations of what early child education should look like. WMA sets itself apart from the rest because it feels like a school, not a daycare. They aren't giving my kids busy work or forcing them to sit in a chair all day. They encourage children to learn through exploration and curiosity while learning real world skills and skills they need for a formal elementary setting. As a result, the kids walk away with a love of learning and wonder. Thank you ♥️"

"When we took our tour, it felt surreal, like we were walking through a daycare from The Truman Show. After leaving LeafSpring Charter Colony, it was evident that there was a legitimate difference between daycare and “playcare”. Now that our daughter (13mo) is attending full time, I can say with zero hesitation that anyone reading this should stop considering any other facility, and simply choose WMA. The positive difference starts with leadership, and is pervasive throughout the entire organization. Infant Room 2 has exceptional teachers, who care not only about your child, but also about your experience as a parent. From the attention to room cleanliness, to preparing/cleaning personal items for take-home, you realize that this place is different—in a great way."

"Our child started as an infant at WMA shortly after they opened and we all love it. The atmosphere in the school is peaceful and the owner and staff are welcoming and kind. They are communicative throughout the day and check in when necessary to ensure we are comfortable with any snacks or different activities for the kids."

"We recently started here after leaving a popular nationwide chain preschool and our daughter (age 3) has never been happier to go to preschool! The staff are so welcoming, kind, and caring. The energy of the school is peaceful and positive. Our daughter wakes up excited every morning and is ready to go; at her last school she dreaded getting up and would scream and cry at drop off. We only have smiles at drop off now. We love the Montessori approach and appreciate the dedication the teachers and administration have in honoring this approach. The administration has also been thoughtful in their hiring practices and how they open and staff classrooms. Can't wait for our youngest to start here, too!"

"We absolutely adore Woolridge! Our children (age 4 and 2) have previously been at three other schools, and the others do not even come close in terms of the quality of teachers, curriculum, special events, and the facility. Every single staff member is kind, loving, and seems to genuinely love working with the children. Everyone knows both of my children's names and makes them feel loved and important. We are so grateful for this school and community."
