About Us

Montessori Child Care Excellence

At Children’s Manor & Children’s Magnet Montessori Schools, we believe children learn best when education follows their natural development. Guided by the proven Montessori method, our programs foster independence, creativity, critical thinking, and academic excellence. For over 30 years, we have offered families more than childcare or daycare; we provide a foundation for lifelong learning and success.

Our Programs

We offer a range of full-and-partial day child care and early childhood educational programs, starting with infant daycare and preschool, then continuing through kindergarten and elementary school. Our Montessori approach blends academic rigor with a nurturing environment, supporting each individual child’s cognitive, social, and emotional development.

CMMS is proud to be part of the Maryland EXCELS Program through the Maryland State Department of Education and is committed to providing high-quality education and care. To help support families in making child care more affordable, we accept the Child Care Scholarship (CCS) and participate in programs for military families, including Military Child Care in Your Neighborhood (MCCYN) and Child Care Aware of America (CCA).
