Licensing visits on record

California records 0 routine inspection visits and 1 complaint visit to PEARL MONTESSORI PRESCHOOL.

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

  • Our child has been attending Pearl Montessori Preschool for a full year now, and we could not be happier with our experience. Choosing a preschool is always a tough decision, but this school has truly exceeded all of our expectations. Over the past year, we have watched our child blossom beautifully. The growth has been incredibly well-rounded: Mentally: The Montessori curriculum has sparked a genuine love for learning and discovery. Socially: Our child has learned how to collaborate, share, and build meaningful friendships with peers. Emotionally: We’ve seen a massive boost in confidence, independence, and emotional maturity. A huge part of what makes this school so special is the incredible leadership and staff. The director, Kelly, is absolutely fantastic—always professional, approachable, and deeply invested in the well-being of every family. The teachers are exceptionally warm and caring, creating a nurturing environment where children feel completely safe to explore and grow. As a wonderful bonus, we absolutely love all the beautiful art projects our child brings home! It’s a joy to see their creativity celebrated every week. If you are looking for a quality, nurturing preschool that truly fosters a child's full potential, I cannot recommend Pearl Montessori Preschool enough!

  • Pearl Montessori has been such a wonderful preschool experience! The teachers and Ms. Kelly are so kind and caring. Jade had so much fun learning through play with hands-on projects, experiments, songs, and seasonal performances. She loved the themed summer weeks, and we were amazed at how well the Montessori approach prepared her for kindergarten. We’re so grateful and highly recommend Pearl Montessori!

  • Pearl Montessori Preschool has truly been a blessing! The teachers are warm, caring, and show great patience, and my son has grown so much in confidence, curiosity, and character. Communication with parents is always quick and smooth. We’re sad to leave due to a job change. And weeks later, my son is still talking about Ms. Kelly and Ms. Raven as his best friends. Highly recommend!

  • My toddler loved his time at Pearl Montessori! Kelly, the school director and owner, has put a lot of money into renovations to revamp the school program and facilities. My son excelled in the toddler class with Ms. Daisy. We're so appreciative of the care they gave him.

  • My son has been at Pearl Montessori Preschool since June 2024, and I’m beyond happy with his growth! He started in the toddlers/twos class and quickly moved into preschool, where Ms. Patty even helped him master potty training in no time. The new Montessori curriculum under Ms. Kelly’s leadership has been a wonderful change—she’s so communicative and understanding. He loves greeting his teachers (Ms. Raven, Ms. Patty, Ms. Neyla, Ms. D, and Ms. Alexa) each morning and enjoys his Kidokinetics extracurricular program. Some days he’s having so much fun, he doesn’t want to leave at pick-up! Thanks to Pearl Montessori, I know he’ll be more than ready for TK. Highly recommend!

  • Pearl Montessori Preschool is a great place for any child to grow and learn. They provide a safe environment for children to learn social skills, strengthen their emotional regulation, and develop cognitive abilities. I am so impressed with Kelly and her teachers' dedication to the Montessori learning style and passion for teaching young kids. I especially love the playground and the large area in the back. Kids have the opportunity to explore, use their imagination, and connect with the outside. I have personally experienced the administrator’s generosity and flexibility. 10/10 recommend. - Thank you Pearl Montessori Preschool
