Our son has attended Children's House Montessori of Agoura Hills for almost a year, starting in the…read moretoddler class and now preparing to move into primary, and we've had such a positive experience. From the moment we toured, the space felt warm and welcoming, the children were clearly connected to their teachers, and the director immediately made us feel at ease. The teachers are incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely interested in each child. Miss Kay is especially wonderful. My son talks about her constantly, including on weekends, which feels like the highest compliment a toddler can give. He also speaks positively about the other teachers he interacts with, which says a lot. I have seen them handle end-of-day toddler meltdowns with calm and grace, which honestly feels like a superpower. Since starting, we have seen so much growth in our son's independence and emotional regulation. He loves doing things himself and often repeats phrases like "we keep our hands to ourselves" and "sharing is caring," sometimes while correcting me. The classroom environment feels calm but still stimulating, and the small class sizes make it clear that each child is truly known. We also love that they offer exposure to different languages along with extracurriculars like dance and sports. There is truly no better feeling than dropping your child off and having them be so excited to be there that they do not even notice you leaving. Knowing your child feels safe and happy enough to run into the classroom means you can walk out, go to Starbucks, and drink your coffee while it is still warm, in peace and quiet. That alone is priceless. I highly recommend this school to parents looking for a nurturing, structured Montessori environment that supports independence, kindness, and parents' sanity.

There are very few places in life that genuinely become part of your family. For the past five…read moreyears, Montessori of North Ranch has been exactly that for ours. As one child graduates and our youngest continues enrollment, we've had the opportunity to look back on every classroom, every teacher, and every season. What stands out most isn't just one exceptional teacher. It's that every single teacher has been exceptional. Looking back, it's remarkable how thoughtfully the leadership places each educator. Every time our children move into a new classroom (advance to the next age grouped class), we couldn't imagine having a better teacher than the one they were leaving. Then we'd meet the next teacher and think the exact same thing. Now, after experiencing the entire journey, we can clearly see the incredible gifts each teacher possesses and how intentionally they are matched with the age group they were created to teach. It's something truly special. The administration and teachers don't simply care for children. They partner with families. Every child is deeply known, genuinely loved, and celebrated as an individual. From the warm greetings every morning, to the thoughtful conversations at pickup, to the daily updates that make you feel like you were part of your child's day, you quickly realize your child is so much more than a name on a roster. What amazes me most is the consistency. These teachers serve families from early morning until evening with joy, patience, and genuine enthusiasm. Whether you're asking for parenting advice, sharing a concern, or simply picking up your child, you're met with kindness, wisdom, and people who truly care. Academically, the school is exceptional. Your child will absolutely be challenged, but never through pressure. Learning happens through curiosity, exploration, and purposeful play. Along the way, they'll develop independence, confidence, critical thinking, and practical life skills like table manners, sewing, laundry, fine and gross motor development, and so much more. Week after week, you'll be amazed by what your child is capable of. Equally special are the families this school attracts. I believe this is a testament to the school. There's a genuine sense of community that's hard to describe until you've experienced it yourself. Parents greet one another every morning, and friendships form naturally. It truly becomes your village. If you're considering Montessori of North Ranch, or simply stumbled upon its reviews, don't wait. Schedule a tour, ask questions, and even if there's a waitlist, get your name on it. Looking back, enrolling our family here is one of the very best decisions we've ever made, and we will be forever grateful for the people who helped shape our children into the young girl and boy they are today.

It's been a phenomenal transformation thanks to Montessori of North Ranch. Everyone employed at this school is outstanding. You and your children are greeted with a smile every single day, and the staff are extremely calm and kind. Our daughter talks about her teachers and Ms. Joanna constantly -- they've genuinely become family to her. Even though she finished attending in May, she's still saving up things to share with them the next time she visits. The activities are wonderful too -- music, dance, yoga, and more. We couldn't have asked for a better place for these early years when both parents had work commitments and wanted to ensure our daughter thrived when we couldn't be there. This location far exceeded our expectations, and we are forever grateful.

The school also instills life qualities like politeness, kindness, and patience that I don't always see in peers their age. Ms. Mary and the other teachers teach and discipline with kindness and instill a curiosity and love of learning that extends well beyond the school day. And FWIW, when I enrolled my son in elementary school, they said that they love it when kids come from OPM. They mentioned that they are some of the best-behaved and well-prepared children entering into TK and Kinder.

She has grown so much both academically and socially, and she's learned a wide variety of things. The school provides free meals every day, which is such a help for families. They also host wonderful events throughout the year, including Mother's Day and Father's Day celebrations, a Christmas party that bring every family together. We love seeing her come home with all kinds of writing and artwork from class, as well as plants and vegetables she's helped grow in their garden. It's clear the teachers put a lot of care and thought into creating a nurturing, engaging environment for the children. I'm grateful for everything Oak Park Montessori has done for my daughter and our family.

From the wonderful…read morecurriculum to the caring and professional staff, as well as the amazing experiences they offer for children (extracurriculars- Chinese, music, dance, performances-- as well as other after school options), we could not have asked for a better school. Our children have grown and learned (both academically and emotionally) so much while attending here. The staff are student-focused, professional, and genuinely so nurturing and kind; the director Ms. Mayra is all of these things and more and she does an amazing job of running the school and providing a safe and wonderful learning environment. We have recommended this school to all of our friends, and they too have had such great experiences. Our kids loved their time at MOTV and still ask to go back-- that truly says it all.

Our experience at Montessori of the Village was, unfortunately, marked by significant lapses in…read morecommunication and professional standards that we feel are important for other families to be aware of. Safety and communication protocols regarding student release were a primary concern. On more than one occasion, I arrived for scheduled pickup after a significant commute only to find my son had been released to his other parent without any prior notification or check-in with me. In a high-stakes environment like childcare, proactive and reliable communication regarding pickup changes is an essential expectation that was not met. Beyond safety, we found the school environment difficult to navigate from a parental partnership perspective. We consistently felt a lack of transparent outreach from the staff, and interactions with the director were frequently dismissive rather than collaborative, making it difficult to address concerns in the best interest of our child. Additionally, the day-to-day operations--specifically the parking situation during drop-off and pickup--often felt disorganized and unsafe due to consistent illegal parking. We believe in the Montessori philosophy, but unfortunately, the execution and professionalism at this location did not align with the supportive, high-standard environment we were seeking for our son.

Finding quality infant care that doesn't feel impersonal yet still offers resources beyond a home daycare is nearly impossible, but Partners in Learning achieves this balance beautifully. Our daughter started in the infant room at 8 months old, and at 16 months, she's thriving. Every morning, she lights up when she sees Ms. V and never leaves in the afternoon without blowing a sweet kiss to Ms. P. The love and genuine care these teachers show is truly heartwarming, and it's clear they play an important role in her development and happiness. I also appreciate the cozy sleep area, which creates a slightly separate environment for rest vs play, and the wonderful outdoor playground designed specifically for children under 2--it's a perfect space for safe exploration and play. Additionally, Ms. Marion, the director, has been working hard to thoughtfully incorporate parent feedback and implementing meaningful improvements that enhance the school. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful start they're providing our daughter!

My daughter recently moved into the two's classroom with Ms. Michelle and Ms. Maria to which my daughter looks forward to going to school to see her two favorite girls. I really enjoy the lesson plans they have set up for the kiddos and how much patience Ms. Maria has with my daughters potty training journey.

If you are looking for a preschool where the teachers care and they all feel like family, this place is it! The location is excellent and they have a wonderful outdoor play area so our children get exposed to the outdoors and are not sitting inside all day. It's also easy to get to since it is near the 23 freeway and sunset hills. It's easy to get back on the freeway to/from work. We are so glad this place exists and feel so lucky to send our daughter here. I strongly recommend this place for preschool!! It is the best in the area.
