  • Choosing Orchard House as a preschool has been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our daughter. It has become a second home for all of us. Our daughter has been nurtured, encouraged and surrounded by love and we feel everyone there really cares and wants her to flourish. Not only has the Montessori program given her the confidence and drive to learn but she’s made strong emotional ties with her classmates, her teachers and the staff. We would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone

  • Orchard House is more than a preschool. For our family, it is truly a home away from home - an extension of our family, where our children spend each day feeling safe, secure, and loved... Where they learn both confidence and compassion... Where they are taught with both enthusiasm and with patience... Where their individuality is nurtured with the utmost care. We are so very grateful for the dedication of the Orchard House team, and most of all, for the smiles on our children's faces at the start and end of each and every school day... With much love and appreciation,

  • I have visited many preschools and daycares during recent years and had my 2 older children attending public daycare prior to beginning kindergarten. Having had children go through the public system I wasn’t sure I really needed anything more though I was ready for a change. Having done the rounds of local preschools yet again Orchard House stood out to me since it was conveniently located and it had a “real” school feel. Orchard House has far exceeded all of my expectations in a preschool environment and I feel great knowing that my children are receiving the social, emotional and academic backbone necessary for their future. The teachers are all so happy to be there every day. They truly take the time to give every child the individual attention they require. I could not ask for a better place to send my kids.

  • All three of our children have benefited enormously not just from the Orchard House Montessori curriculum, but also from the friendly, nurturing teachers they all grew with. Their years there significantly helped them to be ready and confident for school. Thanks so much!
