Cherry Hill Montessori

Great Staff!! I am sure it's a great school but NOT for the summer camp. My child did not like getting into pool 2 times a day for an hour each time. That's too much for the little ones & can be exhausting. Getting ready for pool was chaotic & not much help was offered initially. It consumed most of the day. If your kids love swimming, this camp is the right choice for you. My child came home with many bug bites on regular basis due to spending a lot of time outdoors (there is no indoor pool). Weekly themes for the camp barely had any interesting/fun/ exciting activities except for the one week - farm week. Most of the kids already go here for Pre-K & have friends so for newcomers it's hard to adjust. If your child doesn't enjoy the camp here, refund could be a problem or no refund policy (if I remember correctly). Very expensive yet not a promising program. Mrs. Jackie was amazing!! Thank you for all that you did.

I have toured 10 pre-schools before I committed to CHM. I instantly felt it was a safe and nurturing environment the moment we entered the building. The owner Kerri & Janine the director, are kind and understanding. They both have reassured me numerous times with phone calls, emails and hugs that my daughter is having a wonderful time. They hand select each staff member. My daughter was so nervous and anxious when she first began her journey here. Mr. Joe held her hand for the first two weeks of school until she was comfortable and adjusted. He is an amazing teacher and has the patience of a saint! The education the children receive at CHM is monumental. The absolute best aspect of this school is teaching the children coping skills in a loving and nurturing manner. Whether it’s working through separation anxiety from a parent to learning how to deal with conflicts amongst peers. I cannot recommend this school enough! Please be sure to get your child on the waiting list ASAP!

My child attended CHM from the ages 3 to 5 and demonstrated tremendous growth during his time there. His early academic, social, and general background knowledge really exploded during his time there. Additionally we always knew he was safe and well cared for by the staff. I would recommend CHM to any family that would like to see their child “grow confidently.”

Our son is completing his second year at CHM, and it’s been a wonderful two years. The school is a on a purpose-built Montessori campus. It has all of the tools and resources you’d want at a Montessori. What sets it apart is the staff. They’ve been loving, resourceful, and just the right measure of firm when our kiddo needed guidance. They’ve always been quick to address concerns (though we’ve had almost none). They’re engaged in what they do and passionate about our son’s growth and development. It was a difficult to decision this year to send him to public school for kindergarten. Well miss his teachers and the after school care staff so much. Thank you to Miss Lauren and Miss Haritha, his classroom teachers, Miss Kerri, Miss Janine, the directors, and Miss Alanis, Miss Michelle, and Miss Manisha (who my son may like more than he likes me!). Sending out little man here was among the best decisions we’ve made.

My son attended CHM for 4 years and just finished last year. It was an incredible experience. We were so happy when he was younger learning from the older kids in his class. His learning took off. It's like he became smarter exponentially. Then when he was older he was a mentor to the 3-4 year olds. He took so much pride in teaching them, setting their lunch table for them and reading to them. Miss Migna worked with us as a teacher/parent team. When he or other kids did something wrong, they worked it out at the peace candle, and they learned how to be kind and respectful. Problems were addressed and resolved so professionally. It was such a thrill to watch my son grow and learn. You don't realize it happening but then it all comes together. I'll never forget my son come back from school one day his Kindergarten year, holding a book he made, on his own, with no help from the teachers. Normally, I read to him every night, but that day he came home with his own book that he made with paper and staples and he read his own book to me. The feeling for his accomplishment was so beyond words. How amazing. These teachers are angels. You don't always see the growth week to week, but then, when you don't expect it, this rush of capability and intelligence amazes you. It was an amazing experience for us. All 4 years is the way to go though Kindergarten where you watch them be leaders. It's really awesome. Thanks, Louis

We have been apart of the Cherry Hill Montessori family for the past 2 years. I cant even begin to explain how happy we have been at this school. CHM treats everyone as family. My son has seen so much growth since starting. He is writing, starting to read and has grown emotionally. He loves going to school and especially loves his teachers. His teacher Mr. Joe has gone above and beyond for our family. He has so much heart and such a caring mindset. The teachers here really make an effort to engage the kids and develop them in a very individualised way. The management staff are really committed to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment and we’re very thankful. Anytime we had a question or concern, someone would always be in contact with us, even after hours. Our family experienced a very traumatic house fire this past school year and the school rallied around us. From the staff, families that attend and owners. I can't even begin to express how wonderful this school is. We are counting down the day until our youngest is able to attend. Cherry Hill Montessori brings out the best in every child by tapping into their individual strengths, while creating an environment of kindness, responsibility, and leadership. Our family is so grateful for our Cherry Hill Montessori family.

I have been taking my granddaughter to CH Montessori for the past 4years. We keep going back every year because it is truly THE BEST--kind,nurturing, motivational, and educational! I have experienced many other schools and camps over the years, but Cherry Hill Montessori ranks #1. My granddaughter struggles with adjusting to new staff and peers, but this has never been the case here. It's so awesome to take her every morning and see how excited she is to climb up the school steps and be greeted by a friendly staff member, as well as her classmates and the other parents. When I pick her up at the end of the day, she always has a smile on her face! My granddaughter is an extremely picky eater, but for some reason this doesn't seem to be the case at Montessori, and she always looks forward to Pizza Fridays. In the summer, she loves swimming in the pool. Many of my friends' children have attended Cherry Hill Montessori over the years, and they still rave about it! Cherry Hill Montessori is a real gem!!

My daughter has been going to the Cherry hill montessori summer camp for several years and we couldn’t be happier with it! My daughter loves it so much that she talks about it year round and looks forward to camp. Everyday she has a great day! The staff are exceptionally kind and patient. They honestly go above and beyond what you would expect for a summer camp teacher. We are so happy to have found montessori. I never have to worry about what she’s doing during the day because every time she comes out she’s had the BEST day, swimming, playing with friends, having pizza day, coloring, and having fun!

I have sent both of my sons to CHM. We went to four different schools before enrolling them as we believed it was an important decision. The moment we finished the interview at Montessori, we felt like that was the only choice for us because they were the only ones that we felt catered to the specific needs and individual abilities for each of our kids. We loved the school so much that we drove two hours every day to get there. My family and I had the chance to interact with every single staff member at the school on many different occasions throughout the years. Everyone is kind and patient and willing to listen and help with any concerns. They all communicated with us if there was any issue of any kind or any changes being done to the school. Everyday, they sent a message explaining how the kids were and what they worked on. My kids loved their teachers and looked forward to going back every day because they made sure my boys had a fun environment where they could blossom and feel heard. This is the last year for my youngest son and I must say, Cherry Hill Montessori and their entire staff has helped give my kids confidence, great social skills and that “I can do it” attitude.
