What Families Say

“I'm grateful for the opportunity that my daughter Gracie had to learn from Molly and appreciate the impact she's had on her educational journey. Gracie woke up ready for school everyday. Molly has exceptional patience, kindness, and ability to connect with each child created a warm and nurturing classroom environment that fostered social, emotional, and academic growth. I highly recommend Molly to any parent seeking a nurturing and supportive learning environment for their child. Not only is she a great teacher she is also a great mother!”

“I just want to say how incredibly thankful I am for everything Mrs. O has done for my daughter this year. She’s truly one of the most patient, understanding, and caring teachers I’ve ever met. Before starting transitional kindergarten, my daughter had a rough time. She had been kicked out of several daycare programs, and it felt like no one wanted to take a chance on her. But Mrs.O did. She saw something in my daughter and welcomed her with open arms, giving her the space and support she needed to grow. She worked with her in such a kind, calm, and consistent way, always showing so much patience and never giving up on her. Because of her, my daughter started to feel more confident, more capable, and most importantly, understood. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does and cares deeply about her students. We feel beyond lucky to have had her this year, and I’ll always be grateful for the impact she’s had on my daughter.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better start to our son’s education than being in Ms. Molly’s T-K class at Michael T. Simmons Elementary! From day one, she brought incredible energy, dedication, and care to the classroom. She showed us the thoughtful research and carefully chosen materials behind the program, which really gave us confidence in our son’s learning experience. But most importantly, our son absolutely loved being in her class—he was excited to go to school every day and even asked to go on the weekends! Ms. Molly made learning fun, engaging, and meaningful. We’re so thankful for the amazing foundation she gave our son.”

Anna

“Molly was my daughter’s teacher in the Tumwater School District, and I will forever be grateful for the impact she had on our family. My daughter is blind, and from day one, Molly saw her intelligence and potential — never focusing on limitations, only on her strengths. She worked hard to make sure my daughter received the support she needed to thrive and made sure we felt supported as a family too. She stood up for her, believed in her, and always treated her with respect and high expectations. Molly is more than a teacher — she’s a true advocate and a compassionate leader. Her dedication, patience, and love for her students are unmatched. We feel so lucky to have had her in our lives.”
