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...

Treehouse school is currently taking a break and we do not have any openings Welcome to the Tree House School! PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS: - A fun, safe, and engaging learning environment - A clean, organized, and nurturing home - Fresh, healthy snacks (many organic choices) and homemade meals - Early Literacy Skills (phonics, phonemic awareness, concepts of print, writing letters). - Early Numeracy Skills (number awareness and identification, counting, 1:1 correspondence, identifying patterns, rank order, grouping and sorting, writing numbers). - Music, Movement, Art, Science, and Dramatic Play. - Active and engaging outdoor play. - Fine-Motor and Gross Motor development. - Creative, hands-on sensory experiences. - 13 years' experience in education. - Extensive knowledge of child-development, behavior, and social skills. PERSONAL MESSAGE: We are a family-operated and home-based childcare and preschool, founded by a husband and wife educator-team (I am a credentialed School Psychologist and my husband is a Special Education Teacher). We recently embarked upon this endeavor to open a daycare when we moved cities and had difficulty finding a quality, clean, nutritious, and rigorous daycare program for our little one. We also found that many of the in-home daycare centers had far too many children for our child to receive individual attention and care that we wished for. Our little program is small, nurturing, and in support of all types of learning - social, physical play, and academics are a top priority! More specifically, we are designed to enhance each child's strengths and interests, develop language skills (both verbal and non-verbal), increase your little one's capacity for patience and tolerance, and create a love for learning among our little scholars. We do accept children with disabilities and are well-connected with community resources to support our families and their children's unique needs. In time, the vision for our school is to expand into a larger facility where we can offer after-school supports in the areas of Social Skills, Occupational and Physical Therapy, Speech-Language, Counseling, Educational Consultation, Advocacy, Academic Remediation, and Adult Transition Services. For now, we are a small home-daycare with lots of love and support to help your child learn and grow! Thank you for your interest and we hope to hear from you soon. * Tree House School - Where Children Grow and Dreams Take Root *

Edgewood Academy – Where there is a Love for Learning! Preschool – Pre-Kindergarten – Kindergarten Edgewood PrePrimary Academy has a 65 year history of local teaching. We proudly offer education for children, aged 2½ through kindergarten. Each child comes to us with a natural curiosity and love for learning. We believe it is our responsibility to nurture this curiosity and help this love grow. Children will realize their greatest potential after they have experienced frequent success in a warm loving and positive environment. In our classrooms and outdoor spaces, children can achieve optimal growth in all areas of the curriculum with one teacher and no more than 12 students in a completely separate classroom designed to enhance each child’s opportunities for growth. The individual teacher remains the single most important factor. Our teachers are full-time professionals. They are trained, experienced and credentialed in early childhood education. Edgewood teachers are always available to their parents and use many recourses to communicate with their students’ parents. Classroom teacher conferences with parents are held three times throughout the year to ensure that all areas of social, emotional and academic development are progressing and continued to be challenged. Core Programs Our Core Programs are designed to meet your child’s needs the year round. We accept children between the ages of 2 1/2 and 6 1/2. You may choose to enroll your child in either the 10-month program August through May or the 12-month program. Students may enroll for all or part of the summer program during June and July. Summer camp information is available in April each year. Year round, all programs are available for 5 days a week, 3 days a week (Monday, Wednesdays, and Fridays), or 2 days a week (Tuesdays and Thursdays).

We open at 7:00 am and close at 6:00 pm. During Extended Day, the students are still learning and growing through the varied activities carefully planned by our Extended Day Teachers.

A healthy afternoon snack is provided by Edgewood and the students enjoy outdoor recess time so that their gross motor skills continue to develop.

Parentz View Child Care is a Large Licensed In Home Family Day Care located in Costa Mesa, in the Mesa Verde housing track. I've been in business for 11 years now. I originally started my daycare after having a bad experience with a Licensed provider where my daughter attended. After that ordeal I quit my job to be able to stay home with her. I felt like there was no way I would trust anyone watching her. Knowing that she wasn't the only child not getting their needs met by a loving "2nd Mom", I knew I'd be making a difference if I started my own. One less child being neglected...that's how I looked at it. Since then, it's grown into a daycare that I am completely proud of, of which Yelp nominated #1 in Orange County out of all Daycare Facilities AND Centers. At Parentz View Child Care we provide all healthy meals which includes Breakfast, Lunch and Afternoon Snack. Not only do I provide nurturing and loving care for their daily needs, but I also provide a preschool curriculum that is fun and has challenging activities that promote all aspects of their development. Unlike a Preschool Center or Montessori, where your child could get lost or unnoticed in the crowded, over filled classrooms, we have maximum 12 children with 2 Child Care Providers. My home has comfortable furniture, cozy nooks and an enriching play room that creates a warm environment for your little ones. When your child comes to my house, they won't just feel like they are going to school or day care, they will feel like they are visiting with family, that just so happens to teach them fun new things throughout the day!
