Any opinions on Mayflower Montessori Preschool in Beaverton, OR?

I am a Preschool teacher so I can give you some tips of what to look for when you visit Mayflower. Call and make an appointment so that someone will be available to show you around. Here are some specific things to look for:


* Look at the building. Is it clean and safe? Are there heaps of resources/toys for the children to play with?


* What is the play area outside like? Is there room for the kids to run? Is the equipment safe and well maintained?


* Are the staff friendly and happy?


* Do the kids currently at the centre appear happy? Are they playing well or running around causing havoc?


* Do the teachers plan for each child individually? Do they write down observations of what the child is doing and plan activities based on the children's interests and needs?


* Have a look at the major policies, including child protection, behaviour management, and food preparation/diets (if food provided by centre).


* What is your gut feeling telling you? If you are not confident, it will be harder for you to trust them with your child!!





I hope this helps!
