I wholeheartedly recommend Palos Verdes Montessori School, which has been an incredible place for my son, Jack. From the very beginning, we felt welcomed and knew this was the right choice for him. The warmth and care that the teachers show to each child, including Jack, make all the difference. They take the time to really know him, understand his strengths, and help him grow at his own pace.
Jack has blossomed so much since joining the school. He’s become more independent, confident, and curious about the world around him. The Montessori approach, which encourages hands-on learning and self-discovery, has been perfect for him. He comes home excited to share what he’s learned, and I’ve seen his love for learning deepen every day.
What really stands out is the personal attention Jack receives. His teachers are not only skilled educators but also caring mentors who create a safe and nurturing environment. They’ve helped him build friendships, develop important social skills, and gain a sense of responsibility. Jack genuinely loves going to school, and as a parent, that’s all I could ask for.
The sense of community at Palos Verdes Montessori is also something I truly appreciate. It feels like a second family, where both children and parents are valued and supported.
Choosing this school for Jack has been one of the best decisions we’ve made, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a place where their child will thrive.

Great School and Staff , Playground is separated for different age groups. Beautiful outdoor space and classrooms are a good size. They provide hot lunch and 3 snacks during the day, morning, after nap, and right when we go inside before pickup. Most amazing thing in 22 years of teaching is the method they use and how any child can learn to do math at ages 3-4 and of course pre-K amazes me

Our family is so grateful for the incredible care we have received at Palos Verdes Montessori Academy. Our daughter has made lasting friendships and loves going to school here. The teachers and administrative staff are incredibly thoughtful. They take time to nourish each student. The fundamental skills taught at Palos Verdes Montessori Academy were essential to preparing our daughter her next educational step, kindergarten. We are pleased to share she has been accepted to Chadwick School for the coming fall. The program taught core skills in language, math, and science. In addition, other important life skills were developed at this school, as well. Cultural studies, respect, kindness, and friendship are integrated into all activities. One of our daughter's favorite activities at this school was the winter performance where she got to dance and sing with all her friends. We are so pleased with the well-rounded and comprehensive program we had the privilege to participate in. If you have the opportunity to apply, I would highly recommend Palos Verdes Montessori Academy. We owe them many thanks.

Loved the experience of my son going to Palos verdes Montessori. He's started liking different variety of food which are introduced to him in the school. I've never seen a daycare that works on the holistic well being of a child.

From the start of enrolling my first baby at 2.5 months to eventually enrolling my daughter at the same age, I have had nothing but absolutely POSITIVE experiences here. The staff treats my babies so well and with so much love each and every day. I have confidence when dropping them off that they are well taken care of, fed, fun out door time and starting to learn the days of the week/ abc's and every day routine stuff. My kids don't even want to come home! Thank you PV Montessori academy! It's going to be a sad day when my kids move on to the next school when they are old enough.

As a mother to a son I am really very happy with the care and learning that Palos verdes montessori has provided. It's been more than one year when we got him enrolled in this preschool and childcare. I recomment this school to all the parents who are looking for a good daycare in Palos verdes Estates, Rolling Hills, Rancho Palos verdes. Rolling Hills Estates and Torrance, CA.

Pros: My daughter enjoys this school, and I do think her kindergarten teacher is just lovely. My daughter has learned and grown here, and for these reasons we have stayed. The lunch meal is provided onsite but it's essentially the same rotation of meal every week, which my picky eater daughter is not pleased with. The included snack is just crackers most days. The cons are the school administration, since the former director left the school a few months back, as well as many extra fees. The current leaders are not responsive and can come across as quite rude via email. I don't know that the intent is unkind, but the lack of or delay in responding to email needs is also quite challenging. Especially in this era of email being the only real way to connect with the school administration. The detail I've found most odd is the extent to which the administration avoids parents/families connecting, gathering, or communicating in any way, including when it is directly requested. Most schools I've been involved with, celebrate parents connecting with one another, so I have found this oddly suspicious and truly don't know what to make of it. In any case, the school is solid, my daughter has thrived here, and that is the most important thing. Just be mindful of the other details, or maybe your experience is different and improved from ours :) Cheers

My son will leave this school this week after 4 years since my son entered this school and it was absolutely fantastic experiences that son and I had. They were so professional, working hard encouraging him to be better everyday. I was so impressed that they were very patient with him when he struggled academically and when he had challenges socially etc. I highly recommend this school for your little ones. You won't regret.

My baby goes to daycare. It is absolutely amazing. It's better than any other daycare that we looked at. They keep to schedules and note down everything that happens. During COVID, they've been great at putting protocols in place to keep everyone safe. I would recommend this daycare to any of my friends in a heartbeat.
