Full Ranking Detail
childcarepreschoolkindermontessoriestablished
Montessori School of Chino Hills is a CCLD-licensed Day Care Center on Pipeline Ave in northern Chino Hills, serving children from 6 weeks through age 8, with an on-site Kindergarten program and an after-school option for school-age children. The center operates under three license numbers with a capacity of 124 children and employs AMI, AMS, and IAPM-trained Montessori educators delivering the Method across language, math, sensorial work, and practical life. Extended scheduling options (half-day, full-day, full extended-day), free daily meals, and bilingual Spanish/English instruction support working families. Parent satisfaction is mixed across public review platforms: a 3.6 Google rating from 12 reviews and a 2.9 GreatSchools rating from 9 reviews fall below the satisfaction threshold typical of top-tier competitors, so prospective families should read individual reviews carefully and conduct an in-person tour before enrolling.
