A Wonderful School with Amazing Teachers! At his previous school, after about a less than a year, he started crying and became reluctant to go inside. Here, even after a year and a half, he still walks into school happily! As parents, there is no greater reassurance than knowing your child looks forward to going to school and feels comfortable and cared for there. From parking lot till his classroom, he says good morning to everyone. And as soon as he enters the classroom he is so involved, happy and excited. Ms. Jyoti and Ms. Tina, thank you for your dedication, kindness, patience, and for making learning such a positive experience for Mikaeel. Your efforts go far beyond teaching; you are helping shape his confidence, independence, habits, and love for learning. We also sincerely appreciate the entire teaching staff and administration for creating such a welcoming and nurturing environment. Every teacher knows my son's name and are so kind towards him. One particularly special moment was the apple activity Ms. Jyoti and Ms. Tina did with him. Mikaeel had stopped eating fruit for almost a year, and despite our many attempts at home to encourage him, we struggled to get him to eat any. Thanks to their creativity, patience, and encouragement, he has now started eating fruits again. Sometimes, teachers have a special way of reaching children that parents simply cannot. At home, he now sits at his little learning table and practices his alphabets and numbers all on his own, without us even having to ask him! He genuinely enjoys learning so much that he has already filled an entire notebook, and we have added reusable practice books to keep up with his enthusiasm. Seeing him develop this love for learning has been one of the most rewarding experiences as parents Choosing a school where your child feels happy, safe, and excited to learn is so important, and we feel truly blessed to have found this wonderful environment for him.Posted on Google![]()

An amazing kindergarten Montessori Children’s Center in Herndon! They have a truly wonderful administration, especially Ms. Smitha Satish, and all of the teachers are very kind and attentive. The facilities and the fully loaded backyard are so great for kids and very safe, especially the lovely playground where the children have so much fun. If you have kids, Montessori is your best choice and a true second home for your children. Thank you so much. YohannesPosted on Trustindex![]()

Highly recommend MCC We have had such a wonderful experience with this daycare. Our daughter has been here since she was just 5 months old, and it has been so special watching her grow from a tiny baby into the happy, confident little girl she is today. She genuinely loves coming to school every day, and as parents, knowing she is happy, safe, and loved while she’s there means everything to us. The teachers have been absolutely incredible. They don’t just care for the children—they truly get to know them. They notice the little things, from changes in behavior to when she may not be feeling well, and they always give her the attention, comfort, and encouragement she needs. As first-time parents, it has been amazing to watch them help her learn, grow, and reach each milestone along the way. Mrs. Nahida, Mrs. Attiya, Mrs. Tela, and Mrs. Fatima are just a few of the wonderful teachers who have made such an impact on our daughter. They have truly become like family to us. We also want to recognize Mrs. Absi, the Director, who leads the school with so much professionalism, warmth, and care. It is clear how much she values the children, families, and staff. We feel incredibly lucky to have found this school. We entrusted them with our 5-month-old baby, and they have helped her grow into the sweet, independent little girl she is today. We will always be grateful for all the love, care, and memories they have given her. ❤️ Highly recommend!Posted on Google![]()

Finding childcare where you feel 100% confident your children are safe, valued, and genuinely loved is rare, but MCC has given our family exactly that. Our oldest is in her second year in the primary program with Ms. Malika and Ms. Nawel. She is intensely curious and eager to help, and they have met her enthusiasm with so much grace and patience. They teach far beyond the academic basics of reading, math, and science—they’ve poured into her social development, manners, and emotional intelligence. She thrives there, and their summer adventure programming has been an absolute blast. Our youngest spent her early months with the incredible infant team—Ms. Nahida, Ms. Tela, Mrs. Attiya, Ms. Lyna, and Ms. Fatma—and is now confidently transitioning into the toddler room. The milestones she has hit with them are unbelievable: she sings songs, points out her facial features, and is already beginning potty training. What sets MCC apart is their attention to detail. The teachers notice the subtle shifts that even parents might overlook—spotting early signs of teething or sickness because a child ate one less bite of pizza, or recognizing a change in behavior on the playground. They don’t just watch our kids; they deeply know them. I will forever recommend MCC to any family looking for a place where their children will be nurtured, challenged, and loved as their own.Posted on Google![]()

I love Montessori Children’s Center Herndon! We just moved to the U.S., so my 4-year-old son and I toured lots of preschools in the Herndon area. When my son first visited this preschool, he really loved the large playground. There are lots of playground equipment for the children, and they play outside every day. Playing outside is always one of the first things my son tells me about when I ask him about school. The classrooms are also very clean and well organized. The children wear indoor shoes and can choose the Montessori materials they want to work with by themselves. The teachers are very patient and always help when the children need support. The teachers are also very kind and thoughtful. Since we just moved to the U.S. from South Korea, my son only speaks Korean right now. The teachers have been very helpful in helping him adjust to preschool life. One of the Montessori 4 teachers, Ms. Salmah, even bought a Korean Words book for my son. I was so touched by her thoughtfulness and really appreciated it. I’m also very thankful to Ms. Manjeet and Ms. Shelby for warmly welcoming my son every day. There are also so many different programs and activities that help the children grow. My son really enjoys the variety of activities he does every day. The teachers share photos with us, and he brings home his work on Fridays, so my husband and I can see what he has been doing and how much he is growing. We are very happy with Montessori Children’s Center, and I highly recommend this preschool to parents who are looking for a clean, well-organized, and nurturing environment where their children can learn and grow independently, with warm and thoughtful teachers who truly care about each child.Posted on Trustindex![]()

This Montessori school holds such a special place in our family's heart! Our older son, who is now 6, started here when he was just 1.5, and watching him grow and learn in this environment has been absolutely wonderful. Now, our almost 2-year-old is attending, and it is so comforting to see him thriving in the same nurturing space. The teachers are incredibly warm, caring, and dedicated. We couldn't ask for a better early foundation for our boys!Posted on Google![]()

My two children absolutely adore this school. It is an accepting, loving and caring environment. This center is well-run in a systematic, structured and responsible way. The director, teachers and staff work together more like a family than they do a faculty. It is extremely evident that they all care deeply for the children they help nurture. I watch them operate smoothly and completely, each and every day. My wife and I are beyond grateful we found this place.Posted on Trustindex![]()

A nurturing and special preschool Montessori Children's Center has been a truly special place for our family. Both of my kids attended, and the love, care, and nurturing they received here is unmatched. This preschool became a second home, fostering a safe environment where they could freely explore, ask questions, and grow academically. The staff, from the administrators to the teachers, created such a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. As my youngest moves on to kindergarten, we leave with full hearts and lasting memories. We will miss this amazing school dearly and can't wait to visit again!Posted on Google![]()

MCC has been part of our son’s life for over 3.5 years now. We researched a lot of schools in the area before enrolling him here and YES it was the best decision ! He has been a part of the MCC since he was just about 2 years old. The teachers right from baby and toddler classes to his current classes are just phenomenal ! As a mom of one child, leaving him with Miss Martha was a breeze. The toddler teachers are loving, attentive, curriculum oriented, creative and go above and beyond for the kids. The school director Miss Smitha is extremely focused on a balanced child development. The result - the school has very good events all around the year, keeping the kids interested and excited year round. They also make sure parent involvement and communication is perfect which makes my life as a toddler mom super easy. Their summer camps each year have been super organized, exciting and fun as well as stem focused. They are a nut free school with Food being balanced, non repetitive and interesting year round. After he turned 4+ his teachers Miss Salmah and Miss Manjeet focused on his overall development, his math and reading basics as well as art / science introductions and now when he is ready to join elementary he is able to do double digit additions and subtractions !! My child has flourished to grow into an happy smart kid in their hands. Thank you for the care and memories MCC !! Overall I cannot recommend this school enough.Posted on Google![]()

Montessori Children’s Center has been an outstanding experience for our family. Since my son started, the growth we’ve seen in him has been remarkable. His knowledge has advanced significantly, and he’s become much more confident in himself and his abilities. What stands out the most is how much his social skills have improved—he interacts more comfortably with others and shows a level of independence that truly reflects the Montessori approach. The teachers create a nurturing and structured environment that encourages learning at each child’s pace, and it clearly makes a difference. We’re very grateful for the care, attention, and dedication they provide every day. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a supportive and enriching educational environment.Posted on Google![]()

The school is excellent. Ms. Naghmeh and Ms. Amrit in particular. This school effectively instills the basics and then some, socially, morally, and academically. Your kids will come out of this school confident, capable, and just plain happy. Their extracurriculars are great for the kids and they actually retain the lessons/skills. The only downside is that your kid will be well-ahead of their new public-school kindergarten classmates when they leave (good luck figuring out that conundrum). Ms. Rama (Ghosh) is an excellent head administrator/manager, and one of the best, most conscientious, high-effort organizers of activities, events, etc. I've ever encountered. She runs a tight (admirable) ship. You'll be glad you sent your children there.Posted on Trustindex![]()

Both of my daughters have attended Montessori Children’s Center in Centreville—my oldest from age 3 through 6, and my youngest from infancy to present. We have been extremely happy with our experience and are so glad we chose this school. The teachers truly meet children where they are and provide a safe, loving, and supportive environment. One thing that really stands out is the consistency—over the past five years, we have not experienced teacher turnover, which speaks volumes about the stability and quality of the program. The school is very professionally run, with clear and consistent communication. The director regularly shares updates on logistics, and teachers keep parents informed about their child’s progress and development. Academically, the program is very strong. Both of my children were more than prepared for kindergarten. The curriculum is also well-rounded and enriching—the school embraces different cultures and exposes children to a variety of subjects, including Spanish, yoga, and other engaging activities. Overall, this has been a wonderful experience for our family, and I would highly recommend MCC to anyone looking for a nurturing and academically strong environment for their children.Posted on Google![]()

My daughter has had a wonderful experience at this Montessori school.Even though she is not yet two years old, she is already about 90% potty trained and has become very independent. One thing we truly appreciate is how much the teachers encourage independence. My daughter started eating by herself when she was only 16 months old, and her teachers have done a great job helping her develop good eating habits. Her teacher Ms Lock has been amazing from the infant classroom until now as she moved to the Little Montessori class. Ms Laven has also been wonderful in supporting her potty training and daily development. The biggest asset for parents is the director Ms.Rama She is fabulous and always provides great hospitality and support for families.

I’ve been so impressed with MCC. The staff is knowledgeable, caring, and truly dedicated to supporting every student. Our children’s teachers, Mrs. Fatima and Mrs. Tela, are amazing—so loving and committed to their students (my little one absolutely adores them!). They contribute so much to early development, which is so essential for future success. They really set a positive tone for the school, and the whole team is always there to help. Mrs. Absi, the director, is fantastic. She’s always been incredibly supportive of us as parents and has a real sense of what’s going on with the students. It’s comforting to know that she’s got everything under control, and it gives me a real sense of security. Her leadership creates such a warm and positive environment for both students and staff. Mrs. Lilian and Mrs. Ola are incredibly supportive, creative, and focused on the academic growth of the children. They truly care about each student’s development, and their energy makes the school such a special place. I’ve seen consistent growth and progress in my children, and it’s clear that the school is focused on continuous improvement in everything they do. I also really appreciate how open and communicative they are with parents, always keeping me updated on my kids’ progress. MCC does an incredible job balancing academic excellence with personal care, and I’m so happy with the environment they’ve created. I’d highly recommend MCC to any family looking for a school that genuinely cares about its students. Thank you to all the teachers for your dedication to our children !Posted on Google![]()

Their dedication to each child’s growth—both academically and emotionally—is evident in every interaction. They truly understand the Montessori philosophy and bring it to life with patience, creativity, and warmth. Our child has blossomed under their guidance, developing independence, curiosity, and a genuine love for learning. 🏫 Thoughtful School Management: The administrative team specifically Ms. Smitha runs the school with professionalism and care. Communication is always clear and timely, and they are incredibly responsive to questions or concerns. The school is well-organized, and it’s clear that every decision is made with the children’s best interests in mind. 🌱 Nurturing Environment: The classrooms are beautifully maintained, calm, and inviting—perfect for focused learning and exploration.

My child has attended the Infant and Toddler 1 programs at Montessori Children's Center-Herndon and our experience has been phenomenal! This is a nurturing environment where children grow in all aspects of their development. Beginning as infants, children participate in circle time each morning and are exposed to a variety of concepts. As children grow into toddlerhood, they are taught to care for their environment by cleaning their space and pushing in their chair as well as for the people around them by using “please” and “thank you” in their interactions. Gross and fine motor skills are worked on at each developmental stage starting with tummy time to using a writing utensil by toddlerhood. Children develop their language skills through music, offered once a week in English and once a week in Spanish. Classrooms are arranged for materials and activities to be accessed by children independently. Children are provided an opportunity to participate in educational activities of personal choice, following the Montessori approach. Every day my child has been at Montessori Children's Center Herndon, I have been confident they are in excellent hands and they are in an enriched learning environment!Posted on Google![]()

We have been at Montessori Children’s Center - Centreville for the past two years and could not be happier! Ms. Farhana and Ms. Indu are excellent teachers who care deeply about children and are passionate about learning and healthy growth. We were attending a different daycare before, but after switching to a Montessori I could not believe how much my son was learning! He is about to go into Kindergarten and he already knows how to read, do addition, subtraction, and multiplication. He learns about science, has Spanish and music classes, and goes on different kinds of field trips. The school is very safe. Ms. Rama is a wonderful principal who takes parent comments and suggestions seriously and acts on them quickly. We love the diversity and how many different cultural holidays are celebrated throughout the year. Wonderful school with wonderful teachers and staff. Highly recommend.Posted on Google![]()

Post Covid it was very hard to find a preschool that cared for the little ones to my expectation. Many of the teachers kept shuffling in the preschool where my elder child went. My second child needed more care and attention and a continuity of teacher to assess and teach him to his needs with lots of patience. After many research I found Montessori Children Center to be the right fit for him. The teachers took great care for him which helped him settle better and make learning progress over the years. Thank You so much to Ms.Madhu and Ms.Sarala for their dedication.Posted on Google![]()

We are so incredibly grateful for this Montessori preschool—it truly felt like a second home for our child. He enjoyed every aspect of his time there, from the rich educational curriculum to the wide range of co-curricular activities offered. In addition to the Montessori learning environment, the school provided Spanish classes as part of the curriculum, and offered optional activities like soccer, basketball, and even Bollywood dance—all of which added so much joy and variety to his experience.They also provided an amazing experience with the educational and fun filled field trips. Although our child missed the public school cut-off date (September 30), he was so well-prepared through the kindergarten curriculum here that he was confidently accepted into 1st grade in the public school system. That speaks volumes about the dedication and effectiveness of the teachers and the Montessori approach. The environment fostered self-directed learning, building confidence, independence, and curiosity in such a peaceful and supportive setting. The school also made learning joyful through well-organized celebrations like Thanksgiving, Halloween parades, Diwali, Father’s Day or Mother’s Day and many more all designed with a thoughtful educational purpose behind them. Ms Smitha is amazingly a wonderful person, very supportive, welcoming and has always a smile on her face. The teachers are the heart of the school—super kind, patient, caring, and genuinely attuned to nurturing each child’s individuality. Ms Salmah was his classroom teacher along with Ms Manjeet and Ms Shelby. We are so very thankful to each one of them which can’t be expressed in few words. Ms Salmah, you will be forever in our heart. WE ARE GRATEFUL FOR EVERYTHING!!!It was amazing to watch our son grow both academically and personally, all while having fun. We couldn’t have asked for a better foundation for his early years. This school holds a very special place in our hearts.Posted on Google![]()

We are incredibly happy with our experience at this Montessori daycare under the leadership of Director Rama. From day one, she and her team have created a calm, nurturing, and enriching environment where our child feels safe, respected, and inspired to learn. The Montessori approach is followed thoughtfully, allowing children to explore, make choices, and develop independence at their own pace. The classrooms are well-organized and filled with high-quality materials that truly encourage curiosity and hands-on learning. Special thanks to Miss Jyoti, Miss Shana, Miss Amrit, Miss Manju, and the rest of the staff—each one of them brings warmth, patience, and thoughtful guidance to the classroom every single day. They treat every child with kindness and respect, always encouraging learning through exploration and independence Our children has grown so much—both socially and academically—since attending, and we feel confident and at peace knowing they are in such capable, caring hands. We highly recommend this Montessori daycare to any family looking for a thoughtful, child-centered program.Posted on Google![]()

MCC has been great for our little one. She initially had a tough time transitioning and the teachers were very kind and patient with her. Ms. Amrit and Ms. Manju have always been very honest about everything and I can’t thank them enough for everything they have done to support our little one during this time. The director, Ms. Rama is always there with a warm smile to greet us every morning. She is always willing to step in when needed and comfort the kids and parents.

After spending one year searching for the right place for our child we found Montessori Children Center and couldn’t be happier. Class sizes are small and teacher engagement is incredible.

MCC was a great experience for my son, and I genuinely believe it helped set him up for long-term success. He was in Ms. Salmah’s class last year, where he was challenged in all the right ways and really thrived. My son is currently wrapping up his kindergarten year at a local public school. We had him evaluated late last year for academic competency, and he scored at 2nd grade equivalent level in both math and reading. Recently, we found out that the school’s Advanced Academic Committee reviewed his profile and determined that he qualifies for Advanced Differentiation (AAP Level II) services for next school year. The teachers and staff at MCC are thoughtful and intentional. The environment is safe and clean, and communication with parents is consistent and purposeful. The curriculum is strong, and kids are exposed to hands-on, engaging activities that spark curiosity and build confidence. There are a lot of Montessori programs in the area, but MCC delivers both quality and value. We were so happy with our experience that he’s going back this summer for camp (which is another hidden gem worth checking out)! MCC (Herndon) was a solid choice for our family, and I’d recommend it without hesitation to any parent looking for a school that prioritizes both academic growth and meaningful experiences.Posted on Google![]()

Our experience at Montessori Children Center School has been exceptional. The individualized learning plans have allowed my child to progress at their own peace ensuring they are both challenged and supported. The hands-on learning materials make abstract concepts tangible and easier to understand. My child has developed a strong sense of responsibility and independence through the school’s emphasis on self-directed learning. I highly recommend MCC to any parent looking for a school that values individuality and fosters a love of learning.

As parents, finding the right environment for our child’s early education is incredibly important. We are thrilled to share our experience with the Montessori Children’s Center, where our daughter has truly found a second home. From the moment we enrolled her, we’ve been continually impressed by the care and dedication of the staff. Mrs. Abssi, the manager, ensures the center runs smoothly and maintains an environment that is both nurturing and enriching. Our daughter’s teachers, Mrs. Fatima and Mrs. Tela, are nothing short of amazing. They are not only warm and friendly but also meticulous in their care. We receive detailed updates throughout the day, letting us know about her meals, sleep patterns, and even when she has diaper changes. This level of communication gives us peace of mind, knowing we are always in the loop about her daily routine. The center itself is immaculate and well-organized, reflecting the high standards that Mrs. Abssi and her team uphold. It’s clear that they take great pride in their work and genuinely care for each child as if they were their own. Our daughter looks forward to going to school every day and is always excited to see her friends and teachers. The love and affection she receives from her classmates and educators are evident in her happy demeanor. We couldn’t be more grateful for the wonderful environment that the Montessori Children’s Center provides. It’s a place where children are not only educated but also cherished and nurtured. We highly recommend this school to any parent seeking a caring and professional early learning environment for their child.Posted on Google![]()

We are incredibly pleased with our experience at MCC. Our two daughters, now almost five years and two and a half years old, have been enrolled for almost two years. They have each received great care in a warm environment. As they have grown and developed they each moved to different rooms with various teachers. Each and every teacher has treated them with love and kindness. We feel comfortable sending our children to MCC each day. We are impressed with the language (both English and Spanish!), academic, and other developmental skills our girls learned with the help of the staff. We’ve been pleased over the two-year duration and the Director (Ms. Rama) who started within the past year is always physically present in the center and attentive to any questions or needs that may arise. We are grateful for the experience our children receive and would highly recommend MCC. We chose to keep our kids here even after moving further away.

MCC has been a wonderful school for my children (ages 1 and 3). We started when we moved to the area when my son was 6 months old and my daughter was 2.5, and neither had ever attended daycare before. The teachers and entire staff have taken special care to make both my children and I feel comfortable, happy, and safe. They listen to parent requests and are flexible in their approach. The MCC community is supportive, and the teachers and staff truly care about the families and children they work with.

As first time parents finding a school for our little one was an intimidating search. We really lucked out finding this school that is the perfect fit for our family. We feel like they have become part of our family ! We love this school for so many reasons. Our child thrives there and truly loves going to school. He is always happy to be dropped off in the morning and adores his teacher Ms Surma. I adore her too! She is so knowledgeable and expresses an interest in our lives - not just getting our son out of the classroom. The use of the brightwheel app is a huge win for us! We can easily see how our kiddos day is going and they send us the cutest pictures and videos of him everyday. Paying tuition through there is a breeze as well. It is very easy to get ahold of the school admins and their communication is top notch! As a side note, this school was more affordable than the other schools we toured, had smaller class sizes, better teacher retention rates and to be honest a better playground!!Posted on Google![]()

Love everyone here. Truly a second family for my boys. In this crazy time, raising children in the Societal machine that is America in the 21st century and a pandemic on top of that, it is a tough, tough thing. The staff at Montessori Childrens Center (MCC) are not only there for the kids during the day, but 100% there for the FAMILY at all times. As parents trying to raise happy, healthy, strong willed boys, sometimes it can be hard. Different ages and phases make for new challenges navigating how to parent, and everyone at MCC has openly communicated and showed willingness, patience and understanding through these times. Teachers see our children more than we do as parents sometimes, so it is crucial to find the right place for children and family. We are so lucky and happy we found the “family” at MCC and look forward to continuing to watch our boys blossom and grow with their teachers and friends at MCC.Posted on Google![]()

I toured several places for my infant daughter. Even though it was further from our home than other places we looked at, we decided on Montessori Children's Center because of the small classroom size, diversity in the students and teachers, and the attentiveness of the director. I am so impressed that the director takes the time to know each of the children and their progress. My daughter is now 18 months and has been going here for more than a year. She has really flourished in the toddler classroom and in the last three month has learned a lot of new words, activities, and songs. They also have a really fun and educational summer program for the children. I'm happy with our choice to send our daughter here and would encourage anyone looking for a reliable preschool to look at MCC.Posted on Google![]()

Our children are 15 years apart, it was not a difficult decision to determine were our daughter would develop her learning. Our son had obtained great organizational and social skills from Montessori Children Center in Centreville and the longevity of maintaining some good staff members during this time from our son attendance and learning; only made the future look brighter for our daughter to follow in her big brother footsteps, but also made it more comfortable for us as parent with who we trusted to help mode our child’s education. Our daughter has surprised us on days with what she has learned, understanding healthy food choices of to eat, who she socializes with and continues to work on these skills when she comes home. On days away or on holidays; she will express the void of missing her educators. The class room teacher/directors provided recommendations to help prepare our children for the next level of classes and academic environments.Posted on Google![]()

It was so hard to find child care in northern Virginia, even though we started looking while only 4 months pregnant! Everyone already had a waitlist. I was thrilled to find that MCC, only a mile from my home, had exactly the care I was hoping that for and would be available when we needed it! My son started at only 3 months old, and I was glad to be allowed to spend the day with him and the teachers there before having to leave him alone. As a first time mom, I was grateful to his teachers (who had kids of their own) for advice and recommendations on creams, routines, and more! Even though there are separate infant and toddler rooms, at the end of the day when I pick up my son they have them all together in the great room. I know my son’s motor development benefitted from watching the slightly older babies run and play! I also love that it is a multi-lingual environment! On the days I got to hang around, I heard the teachers sing to the infants the names of colors in Spanish and English. I think that is so good for brain development! My favorite thing though was that every holiday the teachers used his hand or foot print in a craft!! I thought I’d have to wait a few more years to hang his art around my house, so these projects are so special to me! We are only leaving now because my job is taking us out of state. I wish my son could continue to grow at MCC, and take part in the extracurriculars and summer programs offered! We will certainly miss all his teachers who have become like family!Posted on Google![]()

Since starting at Montessori Children’s Center as a shy but precocious 4-year-old, my daughter has grown so much. Now 6, she has blossomed socially, made great strides in reading and math, and become more mature and self-sufficient. MCC’s teachers, including my daughter’s teachers Ms. Farhana and Ms. Elsa, do a great job of nurturing the whole child. I was drawn to the school because of its dedication to fostering a love of learning in its students using the Montessori method, but we stayed through kindergarten because of the quality of the instruction and staff. It’s not an understatement to say that MCC Centreville feels like our extended family and I would definitely recommend the school to anyone looking to instill a lifelong love of learning in their children.Posted on Google![]()

I was very nervous when I was touring for the best match for my first born at the age of 2 in 2014. She had been only cared for by her grand mother, being the only child in the family was extremely pampered. At my very first visit, after meeting the owner/administrator I cancelled all my appointments at the other schools for the day. My mind was at ease. And the my stay there for the next 3 years only made me love the entire crew more. They took care of my child like their own. Loved her, took care of her, guided her and were firm with her when needed. For first two months she wouldn't leave her class teacher alone and she stayed back during her lunch break with my daughter until she got comfortable with other teachers. She was very shy, and wouldn't ask for help. Her teachers recognized that and encouraged her to challenge herself. Now just turning 5, she can add, subtract, multiply and divide (small number) and read. I can go on and on. I think anyone looking for a family oriented, clean and safe environment for their kids should opt for this place.Posted on Google![]()

We have had an excellent experience here as a family thus far. Both my kids (4 yrs & 2 yrs old) started in the toddler program when they were around 16 months. MCC provides an excellent preschool education. The teachers are caring and very attentive to the differing personalities of the students. The administration (Ms Farah & Ms Fatima) are passionate about providing a safe, nurturing environment for the children. Ms Anna, Ms Maria and Ms Salmah are our kids favorite and are wonderful teachers. They are very patient with kids and find innovative ways to keep them focused in class. MCC have regular field trips and other educational trips which gives kids different exposure. They also have good extra curricular activities in school such as ballet/art work/soccer and other summer activities. I highly recommend this preschool if you are looking for a good curriculum, proper care for your child, and warm atmosphere.Posted on Google![]()

I can't praise MCC enough. This one is located right across Floris Church and School on Centerville Road (near Frying Pan Farm). My eldest went there for 7 months only (Jan-July 2015) right before starting her Kindergarten and she was reading Grade 1 books. Before that she could put words together but nothing close to reading. She was doing double digit maths and knew many science/ geography/ history related things. They took kids to Cox Farms, Frying Pan farms, and Science Centers. They have a big play yard at the back and the kids are never unsupervised. They offer ballet, painting and soccer courses as well. During summer they had water slides, baking class, outdoor slides, field trips. This is one of the best pre-schools in the area. My 2nd kid just started going there and I will send my 3rd kid as well once she reaches 3 yrs. The administrators and teachers are friendly and very professional.

MCC Centreville is a great school and has educated our son through Kindergarten. It is a good school with professional teachers and staff. Lots of onsite extra-curricular activities for kids. My son enjoyed going to school and learning new things every day. Teachers are very attentive to kid needs and take good care of them. Good luck - will recommend this school to everyone.Posted on Google![]()

Our children have thrived while enrolled in this wonderful school. Two of our three children attended this school for four years and our only wish was that we had found MCC in time for our oldest child. Our children's emotional and social development were nurtured through daily interactions with staff and classmates during group activities and hands on projects. Their manners were reinforced through meals and snacks as well as special activities such as tea time. As part of the academic curriculum, both of our children were able to read, write complete sentences, add, subtract and multiply before going to kindergarten. Our son even learned how to divide. They engaged in projects and conversations around the environment, geography, explorers, planets, space, as well as countries and cultures of the world. At each turn our children's curiosity was encouraged and indulged. They were challenged in a way that allowed them to experience success but to reach just beyond their comfort zone. We cannot say enough good things about this school. Your child(ren) will be well educated and cared for at this school.Posted on Google![]()

I cannot say enough good things about this facility. I have three children(two girls and one boy) and each one of them attended MCC in Centreville from the time they turned 18 months until Kindergarten. I never had an issue. Everyone was extremely attentive and my children all had a huge educational advantage going into public school especially in reading! I highly recommend this center!Posted on Google![]()

We cannot say enough great things about Montessori Children's Center in Centreville. We started out daughter there about a year and a half ago. Ms. Amrit was nothing short of excellent with our daughter. The only mistake we made was not starting her there sooner. She is now in kindergarten and doing wonderful. They truly care about the kids development and education.Posted on Google![]()

Both my kids went to this Montessori for 4 years. The teachers are greatly committed and very loving. This is one school that closely follows Montessori methods, teaching kids not only academically advanced skills but also important life skills. They stay far away from rote memorization or abstraction. Rather the basics are taught using hands-on projects in subjects like Math, Science , Reading , Writing and Social studies and they lay a strong foundation for excelling at elementary school. They also have convenient, hot, fresh and nutritious meals included in their tuition. MCC has great summer activities that kids enjoy and look forward to. They now have after school program with transport provided for nearby Elementary schools. They team up with other vendors to bring-in after school activities like ballet, music, soccer etc to the school and working parents don't have to drive their kids around for such activities. The directors and staff conduct regular conferences with parents and let them come in to watch their kids anytime they wish to and are always around to provide constant feedback and advice. My kids still visit and have fond memories of MCC , it's staff and their experiences.Posted on Google![]()

My family and I love this school!!! My son attended this school until this past fall when he started Kindergarten and his teachers can definitely tell the difference between him and his other peers in class. He is way ahead of the curve with his reading, writing and math skills. He shows confidence when taking on assignments in and out of the classroom. The staff from the Montessori Children's Center went above and beyond to prepare my son for his educational future. My daughter is currently attending this school and we couldn't be happier with the progress she is making. She is also reading, writing and practicing math skill well beyond other children her age that we know who are in enrolled in other schools. I would, and have, highly recommended the Montessori Children's Center to anyone I know with children or who are planning on having children. The teachers and their assistants are fantastic! They are always available anytime I have questions or want to talk about my child's progress. The administrative is superb! They are quick to respond anytime I have a request or need information from them. If you are looking for a dependable, caring and warm environment for your children, this is the place!
