What our parents are saying.

  • “Bridges has been a game changer for our family for the last 3 years. Our daughter has received an incredible start through the clear and proven Montessori method of early childhood education, and we have been consistently impressed and honestly grateful for the kindness, patience and compassion of the staff at the Towson campus. They are always open to conversation about students' development and needs, and each of them has a gift for caring for young children. We can't recommend Bridges highly enough and we will carry fond memories of our daughter's time here through the rest of our lives. Thank you, Bridges!”

  • "My 2 and 4-year olds have been attending Bridges at Bel Air for the past year in the Toddler Cottage and 3-6 classrooms, and both have had such positive, loving experiences from everyone at the school. My 4-year old had a rough transition the first couple weeks, and all her teachers met her with gentleness, kindness, and confidence which I think greatly helped her to transition seamlessly. All the teachers are able to thoroughly speak to my daughters' strengths, personalities, and classroom interactions; making me feel confident that they truly care about the kids and really pay attention to each kid's personality. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Bridges to any family looking for a place to nurture their kid's confidence, independence, creativity, and adventure."

  • “Bridges Montessori is providing my child with a well-rounded education in all areas of his life. It is liberating to know that when he gets dropped off, he is in compassionate and trusted care all day. It's hard to tell which came first, his Montessori education or his sincere passion for learning--but either way, it is being fostered and encouraged every day. This is especially true in the areas of geography and phonics. Equally as important, staff are in tune to his social and emotional development. I love overhearing him sing little songs to himself about daily habits and routines that I know we didn't teach him at home. I love the little glimpses of seeing him play outside with peers before pickup each day. I love the pictures and updates we receive through Transparent Classroom. “

  • “During our journey to find the right school for our son (almost 6), we were looking for a place for him to thrive and become his own person. Bridges has allowed our son to absolutely flourish by providing a kind, nurturing and educational environment that blows us away. Every day our son comes home happy, sharing new things he has learned, and eager to go back the next day. We have found not just a school, but a phenomenal community of individuals who truly have our sons’ best interests in their heart. We are so thankful for this school and all it has to offer.”

  • “While other preschools and daycares claimed to be using “a Montessori approach”, we ended up choosing Bridges because they truly embody the mindset of Montessori. My husband and I both felt this way after meeting with Jen, their founder. We knew our daughter would love going to school there and that she would thrive. I trust Bridges with caring for and treating my little with respect to helping her grow into a kind, confident, and independent woman.”

  • “On a scale of one to ten, I wish we could give the staff and programming at Bridges Montessori a twelve! This is our first experience with traditional in-class Montessori and we couldn’t be happier! The daily summaries, weekly, and end-of-term progress reports remind us how invested the BM team is in our child’s academic enrichment, her social development, AND her emotional/physical safety! Our toddler is the youngest in her class, and always excited about her school days! We're so grateful for Bridges Montessori!”

  • “Bridges has exceeded my expectations beyond my wildest dreams. The Montessori ideals come to life through the hard work and true passion of the owner and it truly seems to have a ripple effect across the staff. Each and every educator has made me feel as if my child were their own; deeply caring for her and wanting the best for her - it is a magnificent thing to witness! Watching my daughter at only two years old gain autonomy and independence through the Montessori method has been an absolute joy. I look forward to many more years to come!”
