What California does not publish here

The state publishes when licensing staff visited, not what they found. We do not hold California’s inspection findings, so nothing on this page tells you whether a visit resulted in a citation. A visit count is a measure of licensing activity, and a facility visited more often is not for that reason a worse one. Read the findings in California’s own facility search.

Recent parent reviews

  • My daughter attended Danville Montessori from 2023 to 2025, and it was an amazing experience for her. The school is very well organized and maintains a good balance of structure and discipline, while still creating a warm and welcoming environment. She learned not just academics, but also so many valuable life skills that will stay with her beyond the classroom. The group of kids here are wonderful, and the caring teachers have been incredible - always supporting her and helping her catch up in areas where she needed extra attention. Communication with the school has been excellent and prompt, which made the experience smooth for us as parents. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the choice of Danville Montessori and highly recommend it to any family looking for a nurturing and well-rounded environment for their child.

  • Both our children attended Danville Montessori from ages 2 to 5, and I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. The nurturing and welcoming environment helped them thrive both socially and academically. They made lasting friendships, and I was impressed by how much they learned during their time here. From motor skills to numbers and letters to writing and early reading skills, the school’s approach to learning really sets a strong foundation for their future education. We’re grateful for the care and dedication of the teachers and staff who truly make this a wonderful place for young children to grow!

  • Chris and Lizzy’s educational program taught our little one lots! She learned to write, identify letters, speak clearly, and speak other languages. I am very thankful for all the effort! Our little one is succeeding in primary school thanks to Danville Montessori. Thank you!

  • I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my child to Danville Montessori School, and I cannot express enough how delighted I am with the experience. The staff is exceptional, displaying a genuine passion for early childhood education. Their warmth and enthusiasm create a welcoming atmosphere that immediately puts children and parents at ease. One of the standout features of DMS is the carefully designed curriculum. It strikes a perfect balance between structured learning activities and free play, allowing children to develop essential social, emotional, and cognitive skills. The facilities are thoughtfully arranged to provide a safe and stimulating environment. The classrooms are bright and well-equipped with age-appropriate toys and educational materials. Communication between the staff and parents is outstanding. Regular updates, parent-teacher meetings, and open lines of communication ensure that parents are actively involved in their child's development. In conclusion, Danville Montessori School sets a high standard for early childhood education and care. It's a place where children are not just cared for but truly nurtured, guided, and encouraged to flourish. I wholeheartedly recommend DMS to any parent seeking a loving, educational, and safe environment for their little ones.

  • My twin 4.5 yr old daughters have attended Danville Montessori for the past 2 years and we have had the most amazing experience during our time there. Mr. Chris and the rest of the teaching staff have created an environment where children are set up to grow and thrive. I am amazed each week at what my kids have learned and how much they have been exposed to at Danville Montessori. From the top notch educational curriculum to the personal development and pride that they have helped to cultivate in my kids, my husband and I could not be happier with our choice to send our girls to Danville Montessori! Because of this school and the wonderful teachers who have taken such great care and a vested interest in our children’s development, they have an incredible foundation to begin their elementary school careers in the Fall.
