We have had children at MCA for over 7 years (with a few more to go) starting as young as 4 months through 5 years old. The teachers/guides, staff, director, and community of families are all a part of our village! The amount of independence in daily life and academic preparedness for elementary school is unbeatable in the area. The large outdoor space situated in a quiet residential neighborhood is a key highlight. My only complaint is that our water bill is a bit higher because of the extra baths and laundry following lots of outdoor time spent exploring nature!

We left a pretty expensive and “hard to get into” daycare in Elmhurst due to join MCA and have been SO surprised. The Montessori way is 10x more structured than I thought and our son is thriving under their passionate teachers and care. Not to mention we are saving significantly per month $$ for what I deem better care. I didn’t think we could find better care than the CLP we attended in the city but MCA has pleasantly proved me wrong.

MCA Villa Park is simply the best. It has the most loving director, teachers, and staff. Not only are we passionate and happy about the curriculum and daily structure, we couldn’t ask for more love and attention for our children and the way they focus on each childs’ development needs.

We have been at MCA for 7 years and have been so happy with the school and the community. MCA is an incredibly inclusive school and our daughters have each had amazing experiences. They foster a wonderful sense of community and we couldn’t be happier with the support and care our girls receive.

WE loved MCA! We have had an amazing experience with this school. Our son began at 5mo and attended through the beginning of the Green Room. We would have stayed if it wasn't for 2020 circumstances and we moved out of state. Our second child was enrolled to begin in the infant room as well but since moving he will be missing out on this great place. MCA we love and miss you! This school and its teachers/staff/community are worth every penny and the wait! I cannot say enough positive about this place.. can you open one where we live too :)
