The Red Hill Montessori Difference

At Red Hill Montessori, children learn through purposeful activity, hands-on exploration, and a carefully prepared environment designed to support each stage of development. Our approach helps children build independence, confidence, concentration, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning.

Independence

Children are encouraged to do meaningful things for themselves, building confidence, responsibility, and practical life skills.

Hands-On Learning

Children learn by working with specially designed Montessori materials that make concepts concrete, engaging, and easier to understand.

Teachers as Guides

Our certified Montessori educators carefully observe each child and introduce lessons and materials when the child is developmentally ready, supporting individual growth rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Freedom Within Structure

Children are given meaningful choices within a calm, orderly environment, allowing them to follow their interests while developing self-discipline and responsibility.

Uninterrupted Work Periods

Children are given time to focus deeply, repeat activities, solve problems, and complete work without being rushed from one activity to the next.

Mixed-Age Community

Children learn alongside peers of different ages. Younger children learn through observation, while older children strengthen confidence and leadership by helping others.

Our Programs

A thoughtfully prepared Montessori experience for every stage of early childhood.

Infant Community

2 months – approximately 18 months

A warm, nurturing environment that supports attachment, movement, language development, exploration, and the earliest steps toward independence.

Toddler Community

Approximately 18 months – 3 years

Children build independence through movement, Practical Life activities, language, social development, and purposeful hands-on learning.

Primary / Children's House

Approximately 3 – 6 years

The classic Montessori environment where children explore Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, Mathematics, Culture, and Science through hands-on materials and self-directed discovery.

Kindergarten

The culminating year of the Montessori Primary cycle

An important final year of the three-year Montessori experience. Children deepen academic skills, develop leadership and confidence, and prepare for the transition to elementary school.

Growing the Whole Child

At Red Hill Montessori, education is about more than academic preparation. We help children develop the qualities that will serve them throughout life.

Our goal is to help each child become a confident learner who is prepared not only for the next classroom, but for life.

Our Story

Since 1996, Red Hill Montessori has been a part of the Tustin community, providing children with a nurturing environment where they are known, respected, and encouraged to grow at their own pace.

For three decades, our commitment has remained the same: to honor the individuality of each child while fostering independence, curiosity, confidence, kindness, and a genuine love of learning.

Generations of families have trusted Red Hill during some of their child's most important early years. We are proud of that history and remain committed to providing an authentic Montessori foundation for the children and families we serve today.
