Our experience at BGMS has been exceptional! Our son started at 2 yrs old and our daughter at 4 months. The teachers are like family to us! As a working mom they days apart can be long and stressful. The staff at BGMS has always taken the time to call me to update me on the kids’ day, reach out if there are any issues, provide positive encouragement and a safe place for our children to thrive. Both socially and academically, I feel BGMS has prepared our children for success. I would recommend BGMS to my closest friends and family.

Our daughter went to BGMS in the early 90’s and had a great experience. The Montessori learning method at this school exceeded our expectations. We were in the neighborhood this week and stopped in to say hi. To our amazement our daughter’s teacher and many other teachers were still there. The positive memories of BGMS that our family has will last a lifetime.

My son started here at 6 months. As a parent, you never want to leave your child. We’ve been going here for 20 months now. I’ve watched him learn and grow. He’s a very happy little boy. I credit a lot of this to Buffalo Grove Montessori. Every kid seems happy and smiling. They run up and say Hi to my son when he arrives. The teachers are usually on the ground with the kids reading books. They have different areas for them to learn. We have a parent-teacher conference every six weeks. They have optional outings about once a month for you to meet other parents. We are looking forward to the Valentine’s Day Dance.

This is a Montessori school. This means your child will be doing “work” which is really guided learning. They will focus on real-world tasks. Like brushing their teeth. They are currently teaching my son how to put on his shoes. This is different from other day cares.

BGMS instilled a love of earning in my child. She is now 15 and a Querbes Scholar at St. Viator where she is taking all AP and Honors classes as a freshman. The fantastic teachers at BGMS taught the kids to link their learning – so when the read a story, they could look up the place from that story on a map and even talk about what was happening in history at the time and she still does that. 🙂 Thank you, BGMS!

My son loves it and looks forward to going everyday. He even asks me to pick him up later so he can enjoy the outside playground. The teachers are wonderful and our family loves the Montessori approach to learning.

There is no other place I would send my children! My oldest will often tell me to come back later when it’s time to go home. The program and teachers are one of a kind.

Thank you for the love of music shared in school! Stefan is a 2008 graduate and he still remembers the music circle.

The BEST pre-school and kindergarten if you want your children to be ready for grade school and, more importantly, to be life-long learners. Whether or not you are new at parenting, the educators at Buffalo Grove Montessori School provide invaluable parent mentorship. We are so grateful that our children attended BGMS.

We were fortunate enough to find BGMS and sent our two daughters there for 3 years. It was a great place for our daughters and we would have never left except we moved to a different suburb. Our teachers were excellent and they have fun family outings like the Valentines Day dance. We miss BGMS but we will always be part of the family and recommend them for any parents looking for daycare options in the area.
