Guidepost Montessori at Palm Beach Gardens

One of the special aspects of Guidepost at Palm Beach Gardens is the amazing staff. All of the guides that we have interacted with, especially Ms. Vero and Ms. Morgan, have displayed a culture of respect and positive learning that comes from the top. Ms. Jacqueline has put the right people in the right place to create a safe space for the continued learning, growth and development of our daughter.

I immediately felt like a part of the Guidepost family when we started. My daughter is excited to go to school every day. In the short amount of time that she has been there, she has already learned so many social skills and gained a new level of confidence. I can’t say enough about how happy my family is with Guidepost Montessori!

We love Guidepost Montessori. The teachers and the head of school Ms.Jackie are extremely loving, dedicated, and knowledgeable. They truly consider the needs of each child. The peace of mind I feel knowing that my son is not only well taken care of, but also learning and thriving is immeasurable. We are so grateful we found this community!

My son has been enrolled in the Toddlers class since he was 2 and from the moment I step onto the Guidepost Montessori campus, I am enveloped in an atmosphere of warmth and creativity. The carefully designed classrooms, filled with natural light and inviting materials, create an environment that stimulates exploration and imagination. The commitment to maintaining a clean, safe, and aesthetically pleasing space is evident, fostering a sense of comfort and security for both children and parents.

My son has had the best Guidepost Montessori guide, Miss Veronica who is not just teacher but compassionate guide, along with the assistants, these professionals understand that each child is unique, cultivating an individualized approach to learning. Their enthusiasm for education is contagious, and their ability to spark curiosity in young minds is truly commendable.

Guidepost Montessori is more than just a school; it's a community that values collaboration and open communication. Regular parent-teacher interactions, workshops, and community events create a supportive network that extends beyond the classroom. This sense of community helps both parents and children feel connected and invested in the educational journey.

My son and my entire family have really enjoy our time here I hope this review sparks your curiosity to take a tour.

We are SO happy to have found Guidepost. I trust the staff and know that my children are in the best care possible. They learn so much every day and are always happy when I pick them up. We love Guidepost!

We enrolled our 3 year old a few months back and have had the best experience at Guidepost!! It was after trying another school that we decided Montessori would be a better fit because he was a Covid baby and was behind on socializing skills. As soon as we toured the school and saw what a vibrant and positive community this is we knew it would be a good fit for our family. The profesional and kind staff goes above and beyond to make sure the kids are in a caring and nourishing environment that also fosters their independence and empowers critical thinking and life skills. The campus is organized, safe and clean. Can’t say enough good things about the school. Couple of my friends have also had great experiences here. We love our teacher Ms Luciana, she is very assertive and knowledgeable. So grateful we found this community!

My son has been at Guidepost since it opened over 2 years ago and we couldn't be more thankful for how much care and thought is given to helping him grow into the little person he is now. The teachers have sparked curiosity, coached him through disagreements with peers and given him the confidence to try new things. As a parent. I am so grateful for the guidance and support I have gotten from the school. It truly is everything we hoped for our child.

When parents send their children to school, they’re entrusting teachers with their safety and well-being. When we received a call that our daughter had fallen at school and had to be taken to the hospital via an ambulance, you can imagine how one might feel. Having reached the hospital before she arrived and was consumed with thoughts of how she was and feeling. While I had hoped the paramedics were being as gentle and kind as possible, they would be strangers to her and therefore scared. When ambulance finally arrived, I anxiously waited to see her. To my pleasant surprise, she was accompanied by her teacher, Ms. A. and as a result, my daughter was calm and more importantly, wasn’t alone. Times of need like this, is a true measure of a school’s dedication to students and their families. Guide Post is a place where I know my daughters ( we have two there) will excel in and out of the classroom because of the examples set by the teachers and staff. They truly treat all their students and parents as family and create many opportunities for families to be engaged and involved. We couldn’t have asked for a better environment for our children.

My son has been here since the school opened. We toured various schools prior and nothing compared to the energy and quality of care the guides provide at GP. I have been blown away by the standards, and the programs they offer such as the Spanish immersion. I could not ask for better people to watch over my child. When my second was born, they no longer offered the infant class (they brought this back in a different program afterwards), so we put her in a traditional school and it was a very underwhelming experience - this was supposed to be considered one of the better schools, but it did not compare to the curriculum and quality offered at GP. Here it is not one size fits all, true to the Montessori pedagogy, and the guides truly nurture that philosophy. I know nothing is perfect, and there is always room for improvement, but I do feel the school puts effort into listening to the parents. At least, that’s my experience. Plus my kids love it, and the friends we’ve made from the school will always be remembered. Thanks GP.

I have 2 children in the school and have been enrolled since they opened. The teachers are top notch and teach to the individual. Any concerns we have had have been heard with empathic ears. We moved my oldest child from another montessori to here and this is the real deal if you are looking for a Montesorri education. I couldn't be happier with the current admin and guides. Shout out to awesome guides in childrens house 6 and lower elementary!

If you value warmth, education, community, and growth then you NEED to sign your child up at Guidepost Montessori in Gardens! We came from another daycare (traditional) and were deeply saddened by the decline the facility was taking. Our naturally smart and polite LO was coming home displaying VERY troubling behavior. We had to switch her out fast! Found GPM in Gardens and fell in LOVE! Our daughter has only been going since April, but she’s grown and excelled in so many areas, she’s almost a completely different child! All staff are welcoming, kind, and supportive to all the families. They know nearly all children by name and greet everyone that enters the door. I also love the security measures in place and the updates on my LO through the app. I honestly can’t say enough good about GPM at Gardens! I’m so thrilled to know this location goes through elementary school (my LO is 3.5 yrs old for reference)!
Check them out, take a tour, ask about financial aid options, and then watch your LO excel right before your eyes!

We love guidepost!!! 10/10 recommend. Our son has learned so much about being independent and asks to “go back” when we get home. The entire staff is incredible. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy!

A truly wonderful place for our child to learn and grow at her own pace surrounded by people who genuinely love what they do. The guides go above and beyond and we couldn’t be more appreciative for all they do to support and care for our daughter.

My son joined the elementary program this year and it is night and day between here and his traditional public school. He looks forward to going each morning and enjoys his days. I’m so glad I made the decision to send him to Guidepost.

My grandchildren attend and the teachers are wonderful! The children have friends and they dance and sing and have fun!

The facility is beautiful and teachers are wonderful human beings who really care for the children with love!

If you are considering this school for your child, my advice is to run as far from this place as possible! My 5 year old son was enrolled and required therapy after we pulled him out! Started off good, but this school can't seem to hang on to any quality teachers. Once his good teacher left, the next teacher who came in was evil ... what teacher tells a 5 year old that they are a terrible boy??? When we let Ms Jill know about that, she didn't look into this at all! After hearing that other parents complained about similar experiences with the same teacher, how could Guidepost not even look into this??? Each day became worse and worse until we were being called every day by 10:30 AM to pick up my son who was crying his eyes out in Ms Jill's office. My son doesn't nap anymore and his teacher was trying to force him to nap or stay on a little mat for 2 hours while she did who knows what. Because my son wouldn't nap and is very active the teacher said incredibly awful and offensive things to my son reducing him to tears every day. The leadership was anything but -- Ms Jill offered a few solutions which we welcomed but then followed through on none of them giving us no choice but to pull my son out. We prepaid tuition for the month and even though my son was not enrolled for the entire month, Guidepost kept our money! Horrible experience and I caution any parent considering this school to go with another option!!!
