Review: Our Children's House Montessori (Clementi)

 H has been attending Childcare (CC) since we are both working and he is too hyper for my parents and parents-in-law. After the no-so-good experience in Sunflower Clementi , we decided to switch him over to a private CC because of a lower teacher student ratio. Long story short, H is currently in Our Children's House Montessori (Clementi). It used to be called Blossom Blisssparkle Clementi but it got switched over in Mar 2022.

Tip: If you are heading to Clu
