Montessori Child Development has provided exceptional experiences for our child. Our son started when he’s just 18 months until 4 and had a wonderful time, learning Spanish in addition, developing academic readiness, and really enjoying the opportunity to learn new things at school. They have helped my son develop self esteem and self-confidence. Teachers are all amazing! We definitely felt the love and care that is hard to look for, from the Director Ms. Abi and to all her staff Ms. Yahaira, Ms. Gail and Ms. Anahis. They are all amazing individuals. We are so grateful that we have found this school. We highly recommend Montessori Child Development to parents looking for a high quality, high care and safe environment for their children.

Such an amazing school. This was my daughter’s first school. She was always cared for at home with people she knew. So, this was a new experience for her and I. She was so nervous the first few months. but the staff made her feel so comfortable there. She didn’t want to leave after graduation. They have such an amazing staff. If my daughter could stay there till the end of elementary school, I would have kept her there. We had such a good experience with MCD. She learned so much being there. She picked up some Spanish phrases. I followed their suggestion to continue her education with a second language. my daughter is enrolled in a dual immersion program. I highly recommend enrolling your child with MCD.

My sons attended Montessori Child Development for almost 2 years. I truly recommend this place if you’re looking for a safe daycare/preschool with a Montessori curriculum. Since the very beginning I felt such a welcoming environment, and all my questions and concerns would always be answered. Ms. Abi is such a sweet and caring Director with great communication and I can say the same about all teachers, they all made sure to help both my sons grow in their education and development. I will forever be thankful for them and the service of care they provided to both my sons.

MCD is a great bilingual daycare/preschool. The director, Ms. Abigail, reminds me of Miss. Honey from the movie "Matilda", she is a lovely person. She has a very good curriculum and staff. Ms. Hilda is a great teacher. My son learned everything he needed to be ready for kindergarten: letters, numbers, phonics, reading basics, etc. He also learned to share, be kind, independent and polite. We made a good team with them to help my son learn and develop new skills and abilities. My kid started when he was 18 months and left when it was time to start Kindergarten. He learned very much and had a lot of fun with the activities. He still says he misses preschool and his little friends. It was a very good investment because we are completely satisfied with the result. We are eagerly waiting for our baby to grow and start preschool with them. To Ms. Abi, Ms. Hilda, Ms. Claudia and all the staff that were part of my son's education while he was at MCD, I can only say I am very greatful. MCD es una muy buena guardería/preescolar. La directora Abigail, me recuerda a Miss. Miel de la película Matilda, es un amor. Dirige el plantel con muy buenas reglas y tiene un muy buen personal. Ms. Hilda es una gran maestra con la que mi hijo aprendió todo lo necesario para estar listo para el kinder: letras, números, sonidos, inicio a la lectura, etc. También aprendió a desarrollar cualidades tales como ser generoso, amable, independiente y educado en su entorno. Entre ellas y nosostors como papás, hicimos buen equipo en la formación de mi hijo para que desarrollara dichas cualidades y conocimientos. Mi hijo entró cuando tenía dieciocho meses y lo tuvimos ahí hasta el año pasado que entró a Kinder. Aprendió mucho y se divertía con las actividades que hacían a diario. Aún sigue extrañando preescolar y a sus amiguitos. Fue una muy buena inversión pues nosotros estamos muy felices con los resultados y esperamos tener a nuestra hija con ellas cuando llegue a la edad necesaria para entrar. A Ms. Abi, Ms. Hilda, Ms. Claudia y demás personas que contribuyeron en la educación de mi hijo mientras estuvo en MCD, solo puedo decir que estoy muy agradecida.

Before choosing this Preschool I read reviews and took several tours at various schools. When I called Abi I was taken back at how pleasant she was over the phone. She explained everything in great detail and listened attentively to my concerns and wish list in a preschool. I decided to tour the school and found she didn’t give tours during school hours both to pretect the children and give us undivided attention. She impressed me to be a very caring, honest, organized and disciplined person. It was those first few impressions of Abi that put me at ease when it came time to drop off my first child. Until my child became comfortable in this new environment, I received daily updates and always felt included in the school day. As time passed, my child began to blossom before our eyes. Academically and socially, we witnessed a burst of positive development and a lust for learning. We were so happy with this school and our child’s progress that the following year we enrolled our second child. After 3 years, both our boys graduated preschool and we’re ready for Kindergarten. Both able to read, write very well and strong in math. In the time we were at this preschool we have had the pleasure of getting to know Ms. Claudia, who is super sweet and very creative. Ms. Hilda who my kids all adore and who was instrumental in overcoming “selective eater” challenges. And Ms. Abi who not only is the Director hiring all these fantastic teachers but who is a gifted educator. She speaks to the children with tenderness and kindness. She explains things in a way they understand and reinforces a constants message that each one is unique and deserving of love. Your child’s confidence grows each day. We feel blessed to have found this preschool and credit our sons’ current successes in elementary school to the solid foundation they received at Montessori Child Development formerly Safari Preschool.
