So what makes a Montessori education different from other private or public schools? The answer; we treat each of our students as the unique individuals they are, and we educate them with Montessori materials, using the Montessori method. Maria Montessori believed that within each child there is potential for greatness. When ignited by a child’s natural curiosity, this spark bursts into a burning desire to learn about themselves and the world around them and to fulfill their unique potential.

Erin G. says "I have two young boys who attend. I could not be more please with the school or their curriculums. They give both my boys such love, attention and care. I...

FAQs for finding preschools near you in Orange, CA

There are two main types of preschool programs near you in Orange, CA. The first is a full-time program that usually works best for parents working full-time shifts, and the second is a part-time preschool where your child would attend only two to three days per week and typically choose between a morning and afternoon shift. A part-time preschool can be a great option if you want to ease the transition of this new learning experience for your child! You can also check your options in Orange, CA for traditional preschool centers, or private home-based preschools.

When you begin looking for preschools near me in Orange, CA, consider your priorities and ask administrators about their philosophies and approach to common child care issues or occurances. You may also want to ask about the ratio of learning time to supervised play time so you can get a good sense of whether you believe your child's needs will be met. From there, ask about what a typical day consists of, what the safety protocols are and how discipline will be handled. Also, make sure to check directly with the preschool for information about their local licensing and credentials in Orange, CA.

When looking for a preschool near you in Orange, CA on Care.com, you'll be able to review preschools by distance from you ZIP code.
