Bayside Montessori PreSchool

We cannot say enough wonderful things about Bayside Montessori in Centerville! From the moment our child walked through the doors, we knew it was something special. Mr. Mike creates an environment that is warm, nurturing, and genuinely inspiring — his passion for Montessori education and his care for every single child is evident in everything he does. The confidence, curiosity, and love of learning our child developed at Bayside is truly remarkable. The school strikes that perfect balance of structure and freedom that Montessori is known for, and Mr. Mike leads it with so much heart. If you’re looking for a school where your child will be truly seen, challenged, and loved — look no further. Bayside Montessori is the real deal.

Our two children have been at Bayside for multiple years and have thrived under the direction of Mike and Julia, along with their compassionate cohort of educators. The exposure to learning and language within a constructive and caring environment that the children experience, as well as the communication with and support to parents has been excellent.

We’ve had such a great experience with Bayside Montessori! Our son (17 months old) was initially a bit hesitant to go, but he quickly adjusted and in the end absolutely loved it there. The teachers are warm, patient, and clearly care so much about the kids. It’s such a comforting feeling as a parent to know he’s in such good hands. We’ve seen him grow so much in just a short time — socially, emotionally, and even in his confidence. So grateful to have found this place! Highly recommend to any parents looking for a nurturing and supportive daycare.

Can’t recommend Bayside Montessori enough! Mike, Julia and the rest of the team made everything possible to make our son feel welcomed and accommodated. Even though he was the youngest in the group after the initial adjustment period he felt right at home and blossomed. Thank you for everything you’ve done and for the piece of mind you’re providing us with!

My daughter went to Bayside Montessori for 2 years. She started there before she could even walk. To say I am more than happy with her growth both mentally and physically while at bayside would be an understatement. The teachers are outstanding, everyday autumn(my daughter) would come home with some new skill that she had learned thanks to them. They helped her learn how to talk and form sentences, they helped her learn how to use the potty. They taught her the difference between right and wrong and how to be kind to others. I would highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a preschool to send their child to, also I think it is worth noting that the owners Mike and Julia are two of the kindest most warm hearted people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting and interacting with.
