Our Forest Hill location offers Montessori daycare, preschool, kindergarten, and elementary programs.

Children’s Manor Montessori School – Forest Hill campus is conveniently located on Klein Plaza Drive off Rock Spring Rd (Route 24), minutes from Route 23 and Route 1. Forest Hill offers open-concept classrooms, a certified teaching staff, a library, a large playground for Infant and Toddlers, Preschool, Kindergarten & Elementary students, and morning and afternoon snacks!

CMMS – Forest Hill is more than just a daycare & preschool.  Unlike traditional daycares, all our classrooms include quality Montessori materials and an engaging, hands-on learning environment set up to foster each student’s development to their full potential. In addition to daily classroom instruction, students receive enrichment in STEM, Spanish, Music, Yoga, Art, Computer Science, and Library.  Our Montessori School in Forest Hill focuses on the development of the whole child.  Therefore, we offer Montessori Infant care, preschool, Kindergarten, and First Grade Elementary programs that balance the social/emotional, cognitive, physical, and academic development of children. See Our Programs.

Ms. Amy Barben

Administrator

Amy Barben has been a part of CMMS Forest Hill since 2019, bringing with her 28 years of educational experience. She holds 90-hour and 45-hour certifications along with her Preschool Director’s certification. With a degree in Elementary Education, Amy is deeply passionate about understanding how a child’s mind works. Her interest in early education stems from her love of encouraging curiosity, fostering language development, and engaging young minds. The strategic set-up of the Montessori classroom drew Amy to the field as she recognized how the hands-on classroom environment fosters independence and problem-solving which gives children the opportunity to develop these skills in a safe, nurturing setting.

Testimonials

  • “My two children ages 2.5 and 1yrs old attend and we couldn’t be happier with the staff and the facility. The director is organized and plans a variety of activities to engage the children. The teachers are absolutely wonderful. The entire staff is kind and caring and my children look forward to going there daily.”

  • “I’m very grateful for all the Director and the Teachers at Children’s Manor have done for our girls. From working with FLES, the bus driver and before/aftercare teachers and children to create a safe learning/growing space our kindergartener could trust during a difficult bus situation, to potty training and teaching our 2 yr/old how to walk, because she learned how to run before she learned how to walk they were kind and consistent in working backwards with her on this simple but important step, to really embodying the Montessori method in all CM does. Thank you CM you are loved!!”
