Montessori Children's House Of The West Coast

MCH has changed my view of parenting, and that will last throughout my kids' lives.  The San Francisco preschool "scene" can be so competitive, but MCH rises above all that, and encourages parents to allow their children to be the ones that shine.  My kids are far more independent, outgoing, and confident because of this special school.  I cannot recommend it enough.

MCH has been a stellar, safe and supportive preschool with nourishing intellectual, physical and social stimulus for our daughter. We went to a dozen different preschools, applied to 7 or 8, and got accepted by 6. We chose MCH with no hesitation. The variety of activities, the great staff and teachers, the ample classroom, and above all, the gentle, busy hum of contented children going about their daily 'work' won us over. There is also a real community of parents and families here pitching in with volunteer and social activities. Our daughter is going into Kindergarten this fall, and thanks in no small part to MCH, both she, and our family, our ready.

Our boys have thrived at MCH.  First and foremost, the teachers and staff are amazing -- the majority have been at MCH for over a decade.  Their dedication to educating young children, and at MCH in particular, speaks volumes.  We've found them to be passionate about what they do, caring, firm, warm, and they've really gotten to know our children individually.  The community is the other amazing aspect of MCH: warm, friendly, engaged, international (there are so many languages spoken at MCH), fun, diverse ... very SF.  Many families come from the neighborhood but many others come from throughout the city.  We feel so fortunate to have found such a great little school in a big city.

I can't say enough good things about the MCH. The school maintains a high standard of education. The core strength of the school is its excellent curriculum and highly skilled teachers. The teachers are very knowledgeable about the Montessori Education, they are warm, loving and on top of every child's personality and development. Both of our kids have really thrived at the MCH and have gained a strong sense of independence, confidence and a joy for learning. The parent community is amazing and such an important part of the school as well; fun, warm, active and diverse group of people! I highly recommend touring the school to get a feel for it. The school is a hidden gem in San Francisco and we feel lucky to be part of it.

MCH has been a great preschool for our two kids.  Experienced, sensitive teachers are its most important strength.  A supportive, involved community makes the school a positive place for kids and parents alike.
