Tender Loving Care Montessori

I have had the privilege of knowing the director of Tender Loving Care Montessori, Mona Johnson as a friend and colleague for over 35 years. She is a true professional. During that time, she was the lead social worker at Proviso West High School. She was responsible for a huge caseload of high school students. She was always a positive source of information in working with the teachers, staff, and administrators. Her skills and guidance helped parents and faculty through many stressful and critical times in our district. Mona has administrative skills that are necessary to own & operate a child care facility. She truly cares for the children enrolled there along with there parents. I am in awe of her ability to handle the day to day operations of her program. She is a dedicated parent herself which gives her the empathy to work with the families in her day care center. Any parent would be lucky to have their children enrolled in the Tender Loving Care Montessori center.

As an educator with over 35 years of experience in public education who lives in the western suburbs, I always love to give a "shout out" to local high quality early childhood programs, and TLC Montessori certainly falls within that category!! Mona Johnson, the owner, is not only an expert in the field of child development but also a clinical social worker with over 45 years of experience. Her expertise, attention to detail, and, most of all, an absolute commitment to ensuring that every child in her care is thriving and progressing are beyond compare! I could not recommend TLC Montessori and its superlative staff enough!!

I can’t say enough about the care and the level of education, socializing and opportunities for children to develop their emotional selves as they enter each stage of life! They’re developing who they are personally and enjoying the learning process of life. The staff are highly knowledgeable, enthusiastic and simply enjoy children. It’s worth a trip to observe the school and it’s people to watch what they do best!!

My toddler has been attending TLC since he was 18 months old. He has learned so much! His verbal skills have improved along with his attention span and fine motor skills. He enjoys going to school and I appreciate all the teachers and their ability to design appropriate lessons that meets each child’s individual needs. Highly recommend!

"Papillion enrichment center was recommended to me by an ex teacher who worked in the previous daycare that my 20 month old son attended. First time I visited Papillion enrichment center, I was impressed by hygiene level, the quality of food and the goodness of Miss Yasna and her team. They accomodate my son's need the way I requested as a mother. If you are not happy with your actual daycare provider, please don't hesitate to check out Papillion center, you will be happy you did" Toula

The moment I got to know about Maestro Goslin’s concert, I was all set to attend it and treat myself with a magical experience. I grew up listening to his radio and television appearances and seeing him in person was a lifetime opportunity. His fingers play piano in such a magical way. Looking forward to listen to him again.
