    I am extremely pleased with the education my son received at the Montessori of Brea. The school's…read moreprincipal, Mrs. Ali, and the teachers in the primary and K-1 classroom, Ms. Tess, Ms. Dana, and Mr. Vargas, were all professional, caring, and loving, and truly embodied the Montessori method, which emphasizes individualized learning and hands-on activities. They implemented these principles effectively to help my son develop a strong foundation for future academic and social success. In addition to the more standard Montessori training around sensory and fine motor development, my son also received drills in math, writing, spelling, and reading, to help him prepare for education beyond the Montessori classroom. The teachers also helped my son make tremendous progress in learning English. When we first moved to this area from Shanghai, my son only spoke Chinese at home and was not fluent in English. However, after attending this school for one year, he is now able to fluently speak English. I would highly recommend this kindergarten to all parents, especially those who want their children to be well-socialized and have a strong foundation for academic success. I couldn't be happier with my son's experience at this school.

    Montessori of Brea has been an enriching, amazing, and wonderful learning experience for our three…read moredaughters. As a former Montessori student, this school stays true to the Montessori method of teaching. There are plenty of hands-on learning materials that are age appropriate from 2 years old in preschool to 7 years old in K-1. The kids are able to learn at their own pace and enjoy an environment of collaborative play and learning. Every child of mine who entered preschool had their initial episodes of tears and crying in the first few months. But the teachers at Montessori of Brea are so kind with their loving voices, gentle nudges, and guided redirection to help the children focus on their learning and forget about the separation from parents. Ms. Kim was our preschool teacher for our first 2 daughters and is currently teaching our 3 year old. Our whole family LOVES Ms. Kim! When my two older grade school kids come to pick up our baby, they ALWAYS have to come to give Ms. Kim a hug! She is caring, loving, and has great communication with parents at drop off and/or pick up. There are a total of 4 teachers for the classroom, but I'm amazed at Ms. Kim's organization and memory having to be the primary teacher of 28+ kids and knowing each child's ability. I can barely handle remembering my 3! Ms. Dana was our most recent K-1 teacher and she is just as great! Her lessons helped prepare my daughter for school outside of Montessori. Her open communication and constant use of technology helped prepare us for future apps used in grade school. Ms. Dana was very active in providing updates, even sending pictures to all the class parents of special events and personal messages for individual achievements! With the help of ALL the teachers at Montessori of Brea, our oldest daughter got into GATE (Gifted & Talented Education) and is excelling. Our second daughter is reading three grade levels above her current grade and is thriving at her new school thanks to the teachers and Montessori of Brea. I can only give my highest recommendation for this place! I tell all my neighbors and friends in the area about Montessori of Brea because it has helped our children succeed in and out of the classroom.

    I am sharing our family's experience with the Dual Language Immersion (DLI) program during the…read moreperiod when Mr. Barrientos served as principal. Our family participated in the program for seven years. Based on our experience, there was limited emphasis on consistent conversational Spanish in daily classroom instruction. Although we were informed that the program's language balance would shift over time, we did not observe a meaningful increase in Spanish use with students. After several years in the program, our children were still not able to comfortably speak Spanish, which was unexpected given the program's stated goals. Families considering this program should be aware that additional private tutoring may be necessary to support language development. We also noted limited availability of Spanish-speaking support staff, which may impact reinforcement of language learning outside the classroom. In addition to academic concerns, our family experienced student safety issues. Over a prolonged period, my child was subjected to bullying that eventually escalated into a physical incident. These concerns were brought to the attention of school administration, including Mr. Barrientos. From our perspective, the response did not result in effective resolution or prevention. Certain leadership statements and interactions raised concerns for us regarding school culture and accountability. While interpretations may vary, these experiences contributed to a loss of confidence in the administration's handling of both academic programming and student well-being. I am sharing this feedback so other families can make informed decisions and so these concerns may be reviewed and addressed moving forward.

    We currently have our daughter in the infant room (the cocoon class) and we have loved the…read moreexperience so far. They have clear communication on everything that's going on with the center (events, day to day activities, health checks, center closures) and you're given notice well in advance. Payment, check in/out, and communication are all done through Brightwheel (an app) and it's such a smooth process. Even though it's a bit modern, my in-laws (that are a bit older and have a harder time with technology) are still able use the app to pick up my daughter and enjoy the occasional pictures and videos that are sent through there. My daughter doesn't really take to strangers well. She did have an adjustment period but has soon blossomed in the infant classroom and loves her teachers. The teachers are caring and informative and we are so pleased with the kind of care they provide our daughter. And we know she's not the easiest baby. They have been able to help our child make huge progress with nap time and even with playing with other kids. I truly feel her personality has blossomed due to the work the infant room teachers put into our daughter. She always comes home happy from the day. The infant room itself (as well as the other rooms we toured in the facility) are also clean and does not have a smell. We toured other facilities where the smell was so strong it stayed with me the rest of the day and was actually one of the deciding factors in choosing CCs. My daughter also has an egg and milk allergy. They assigned high chair specifically for her and are always on the look out for any reactions from food. She recently outgrew her milk allergy but not the egg. During the recent mother's day Muffins with Mom's event, they provided a special vegan muffin for her so she can enjoy the event with me. The teacher running the event wasn't my daughter's regular teacher, but she recognized my daughter anyway and knew to offer me the vegan muffin. I was so touched by this gesture. We haven't had experience with the older classrooms, but have toured them and are rest assured my daughter will grow up well cared for and well educated here at CCs. We are excited for her to learn and grow here. We are so pleased with our experience that we've already reserved our spot for our next baby due in a few months. We highly recommend this daycare center and will recommend it to anyone look for care in the area.

    I have two kids at CC's and couldn't recommend it more!

All the teachers are fantastic, we're kept updated on everything every day and our kids are excited to go to school every morning. Couldn't ask for anything more.
