Saddletree Montessori Child Care

«I don’t want to go home yet», if you hear your child say these words when it is time for you to pick him up, that just tells you how much he loves this place…
My daughter came to this school around one years ago and learned so many things… she have grown so much and develop her social skills and positive behavior, She has blossomed here…
I really felt comfortable dropping my daughter off with these ladies coz I knew she would be well taken care of like her own, and I know my daughter feels safe when she is amongst them…
And ohhhh let’s not forget the task of potty training without these ladies I am confident we’d still be working on it, really they did a good job,…
In addition to the summer activities that they started already, my daughter is sooo happy
Thanks to all the stuff there especially teacher Elizabeth coz she is a loving and adorable person) and honestly I would highly recommend this place (Saddletree Montessori child care) to anyone

We found this daycare on Unilocal in late 2014 when we decided it was time to put our son back into a daycare to socialize with more kids. He was about 2 years old at the time. He started part time in January 2015 and transitioned to full time relatively soon after. Teacher Elizabeth and her family are a gem. The daycare is extremely clean and well organized inside. The backyard is pretty big with a new awesome play structure. It truly feels like a school environment and she runs a pretty tight ship. My husband and I trusted Teacher Elizabeth wholeheartedly leaving our son and she would always respond to any changes. She was super responsive when we had questions or if she needed to communicate with us over text, which is helpful. She even texted us pictures of how happy he was learning and playing. Our son learned to count and say his ABCs by 3 years old and we’re happy to say that what he knows he knows it from Teacher Elizabeth.
We had to pull our son out of Saddletree last week because we were moving away from the area, we were so sad to be leaving such a great place but we highly recommend this daycare for anyone who’s looking for a home based, CLEAN, interactive, learning environment for their child. It was hard looking for new daycares when I would compare the organization and cleanliness at Saddletree! We would give her 10 stars if we could!

Six weeks ago my grandmother who watched both my daughters had a stroke and from one day to the next I had no one to watch my kids. I was afraid of leaving my kids with anyone I didn’t know and trust and with my heart in my hand I used Unilocal to find a daycare near our home. One of the reviews resonated with me as it reminded me of my situation. My kids were use to being only with family. I called and the sameday I went to meet Mrs. Elizabeth, my girls didnt want to leave and couldn’t wait to start Monday. The house is clean with age appropriate toys, the children looked happy. My youngest who I thought would be difficult as she is use to getting her way at Gmas began taking naps and her attitude changed. She looked forward to nap time, would walk me through her day and was so happy each morning I dropped her off. She said to me she loves Mrs Elizabeth and would miss her when she returned to school. She asked to buy her flowers and candy. When she came home Mrs Elizabeth gave her a cute Art set with coloring book that of course my daughter was so happy with. I feel Mrs Elizabeth cares for all the kids, she is calm and loving and I am so blessed to have found her. I would highly recommend this daycare to anyone.
Love that she sends pics too

My 1yr old daughter literally gets upset when she has to leave, as 8 hours is clearly not enough time with Ms. Elizabeth and staff. :)
When shopping around for a daycare, I was concerned about where to send our sweet baby girl, who literally only knew her dad, me, her grandmother, and great-​grandmother as primary caregivers. She was not a particularly fussy child, but had some LUNGS when she was hungry, bored, etc… and I needed a childcare provider who could effectively balance out the love and attention that mirrored what she received at home with family members. Saddletree is her (I believe) preferred family. LOL
When we came for the interview process, my daughter fell in love and so did we. I was (and am) so grateful that we landed where we did. She has learned so much in such a short period of time! Ms. Elizabeth captured her first steps on video, she will be speaking any day now, has a healthy and nutritious diet when she is there, and, VERY importantly… she is learning social/​emotional skills and fostering true relationships/​friendships in a safe environment. I couldn’t have asked for a better place and I can’t wait for her brother to join her!
I’ve actually referred a few friends to this place and am glad that my daughter’s family continues to expand.

I knew it was a great daycare/​school when I was talking with my daughter about going to «big kid school» and she asked «are my teachers going to be nice like Teacher Elizabeth?» It’s nice to see all the love and care that this school shows my children. I believe all children learn at different rates and in different interests and they do a great job at accommodating this. I personally love the age variety they have because it allows my older child to feel a sense of responsibility and care for the little ones. This school has kept my children very loving and interested in learning.

This place is everything I wanted for my kids. A nice, clean, colorful, fun and safe place for them to learn and play. Elizabeth is very caring and very patient. You can sense that from the first time meeting her. She seems to really make an extra effort to make sure your kids are learning and having fun at the same time. I believe that she genuinely cares for them. And that brings me a lot of comfort. Thank you Elizabeth! I am beyond greatful.

Found this daycare/​learning center on Unilocal.
We have truly been blessed with teacher Elizabeth and her family. They our great with all the kids. Teacher Elizabeth has really helped our son with learning his colors, number’s and so, so much more.
Daycare can be scary but Elizabeth has truly made us feel at peace. Our son always come’s home full of happiness and excitement to tell us what he has learned. She really takes the time to teach the kids individually. She has so much kindness in her, you can feel it by just talking to her. Randomly she will text pictures of our son. She always has an activity for the kids That always brings a smile to my face.
One thing that sold me was how clean and organized she is! I love that! I highly recommend this daycare. They or amazing!

Great Child care service. Elizabeth is patient and professional. We are extremely happy with her

I found Saddletree Montessori Child Care on Unilocal.I wanted to find a high rated child care service but instead I found an amazing place where my son has grown and learned so much! When my son first started here he didn’t want to hold a pencil, didn’t like drawing or painting. All he wanted to do is play cars and iPad. Well, he’s been here for a couple of months now and he has grown so much! He loves to draw now, holds a pencil very well for his age. He comes home and tells me about all of the songs he sang with Teacher Elizabeth. He tells me about his work, shows me proudly and tells me about all of his friends over at Saddletree. I constantly ask him about who his friends are and how his day was and every single time he responds to me with such joy and happiness. Teacher Elizabeth really goes above and beyond to ensure they are learning and that they have tons of fun while doing it. Just the other day my son pointed me to the number «3» and said «Mommy, look… I am 3 years old, like this one!» It amazed me!!! I am a full time working mom and leaving my child has always been a sad thought for me, but now… I’m so happy to know that he is in a place where he is very well taken care of, that he is loved and protected and cared for in a way that I would want him to be.
Teacher Elizabeth constantly sends me photos of what my son is doing during the day, she communicates with me clearly and that makes me feel at ease. Finding a place like this for the working parents is truly a blessing. If there were 100 000 stars available — I would give them all to her.
Thank you Elizabeth!!! Keep up the good work!

Best daycare in Sylmar. My son was traumatized w/​several daycares before, but w/​Elizabeth, he love to be in her daycare. I have a piece of mind everytime I drop my son
