  • My child attended the school at 4455 Brookfield, and our experience was wonderful. All of the teachers and staff were consistently friendly, welcoming, and supportive. The school offered special activities... read more such as PE and yoga with storytelling in their indoor gym, which my child loved. They also hosted frequent celebrations for holidays, birthdays, and community events—like movie nights—that invited families to participate. These activities truly made us feel included and part of a warm, connected community. The school also offered lunch which made it easier for working parents.

    For almost 3 years, my daughter attended MoC. She thrived in Ms. Komala and Ms. Pabita’s classroom. She was nurtured, appropriately challenged, and received structure in her learning environment. Ms.... read more Komala and Ms. Alicia consistently communicated with us.

    This is the best school thus far, we have had both children in. Most schools for children before Kindergarten-age are more of a babysitting program. Here at Montessori of Chantilly,... read more not only do they teach the students but they also emphasize manners! The teachers provide such individualized care and attention to each student and the president/owner of the school also takes such an active role in the care and education of the students. If you are looking for a program your children will grow in and be educated in - this is it!

Our Approach to Learning

The Montessori Difference

Instead of asking children to follow a rigid lesson plan, we follow the child. The Montessori method is built on respecting each child's unique developmental path. Our classrooms provide a calm, ordered, and engaging environment where children are free to choose their work, guided by our trained and caring staff. This freedom within limits helps them develop focus, self-discipline, and a strong sense of purpose, building a solid foundation for a lifelong love of learning.

"As our daughter finishes up her time here, I feel compelled to echo all the other praises for the Montessori School of Chantilly. This is absolutely a wonderful place with dedicated educators and caregivers. Our daughter was excited for every day of school and we saw the incredible growth and development every week. There was clear communication from the staff and teachers, we were given updates nearly every day (via photos and videos through the Procare app), and enjoyed multiple events throughout the year. The best place for your young one to start their journey!"

"We decided to enroll our son at Montessori of Chantilly because after going through a long list of preschools in the area, I really did not find a place that "felt right and safe" specially during COVID except for this one.
I communicated with Ms. Kaltun, the director and I must say, after speaking to her once, I was "sold" at putting my son at her school. She is very personable, very kind and understanding, genuine and just listened to my questions, concerns and answered them confidently which gave me peace of mind sending my son over to a school during the pandemic. We then went to the school for a tour and met Ms. Komala, our son's primary teacher. At first meeting, our son felt very comfortable with her and he never forgot her name even tho it took us about 4 months before starting in class- she sure gave him a good impression and really showed us how much she cared for the children.

I have so much good things to say about the school. I have recommended them to my friends and coworkers who also had good experience with them. Overall, this is a place that cares about our children, they do not look at them as numbers like all the others.

If you want quality education and a safe place for your children, this is it."

"Montessori School of Chantilly has been a gem for our infant son. We stumbled upon it after searching for daycares in the middle of the pandemic and we feel we have been the luckiest folks. The infant room lead teacher Ms Hamida and her assistant Ms Fauzia are the most loving and caring people that could have ever taken care of our boy. They care for him with so much love and compassion, it actually feels like we're dropping him off at his Grandmother's house. This has been godsend for us especially this being our first born. They also do a great job at sending daily pictures and videos through their activities as well as a summary of the day. Infant care is tough, but Ms Hamida and Ms Fauzia make it look easy. Thank you so much! We couldn't have asked for better caregivers."

- S M.

"What a team of talented, caring, strong, and intelligent leaders our school has. ... everyone in the staff is just wonderful to speak with! They are diligent and always so welcoming. I can't thank these super women enough for taking care of my child so well- it is our 2nd year and the staff has been incredibly helpful in teaching these children the valuable lessons every day. Miss Kaltun, Miss Nora, Miss Wahida , Miss Preeti, Miss Sapna ... list goes on and they continue to make things better & better.. not only for my child but for these budding humans that will take over the world in future!"
