Our family had an exceptional experience at Hillside Montessori. From the moment our daughter stepped into the school, she loved going there every day. We are excited for our newborn to start in the infant room in a few months. Here are some highlights that stood out to us: • Consistent Teachers: Having the same teachers for three years is a rarity, and we appreciate the stability it provides. The teachers’ dedication and commitment create a strong bond with the students. • Hands-On, Organic Montessori Approach: We love how Hillside Montessori follows the child’s lead. The hands-on, organic approach encourages exploration and learning. The layout of the classroom and playground, with exposure to nature, fosters creativity and independence. Students have choices for free play and can select their own work, which empowers them. The daily activities, including learning letter sounds, tracing, and math, ensure a solid foundation. The focus on phonics sets the stage for early reading success. • Family-Like Atmosphere: Hillside Montessori feels like an extended family. The director’s hands-on approach and the caring attitude of the teachers contribute to this warm environment. • Celebrations and Performances: Hillside Montessori hosts several celebrations throughout the year. It’s heartwarming to see the kids singing, participating in plays, and confidently speaking in front of parents and visitors. This exposure to public speaking at a young age is invaluable. Hillside Montessori is more than just a school—it’s a place where children thrive, learn, and feel supported. We highly recommend it!

What can I say? This is one of the best Montessori out there. My son has been to few of them and this is by far the best. You get a family feeling. They are very accommodating. Teachers seems to genuinely care about their students. Pre school teachers Ms Karina and Mr Stacey are the best. Ms Ajanta is always out there interacting with with parents and students. I highly recommend this school.

All the staff at Hillside Montessori take such wonderful care of my two daughters. I am grateful, and have nothing but positive things to say about each and every teacher. The schoolhouse is clean, inviting, and provides so many opportunities for my littles to learn a wide variety of activities. Thank you Ms. Ajantha and staff for providing an environment I feel safe leaving my children in.

A true authentic Montessori school where the entire staff are invested in each child. They have created a safe space for the children to explore, create, and thrive. The teachers display compassion, kind, and respect without judgments while learning is happening.

When touring Hillside Montessori we immediately felt in love with school: Ms. Ajantha spent over an hour with us showing us the school and explaining their teaching approach, we've noticed that all kids were happy and open. Without any hesitation we decided to put our son to Hillside. Our son stared Hillside Montessori when he was little over 2 years and has been attending the school for over a year now. We feel lucky that we found this school. Every teacher is very passionate about their profession, they love children and children love them. Some teachers have been with Hillside for over 10 years which tells a lot. We would highly recommend this school to every parent!!!

My 3 year old son is a student at Hillside Montessori. We were reluctant to start him in preschool again after having a bad experience at a near by children’s center. We have had nothing but positive experiences at Hillside and I have seen my son grow in every way possible. He is an energetic , intelligent and avery active boy, and the teachers are experienced enough to handle him and not see his energy and curiosity as a negative distraction. The director supports the children 100% and has helped me as a parent in various ways to help our son succeed. I am so pleased we have joined the Montessori family and my son will benefit from the unique curriculum and positive reinforcement he receives from his teachers.
