Chestnut Montessori School is a small, nurturing, child-centered community where children develop a love of learning. Located on the border of Kirkland and Bellevue, our campus is a former farm with beautiful historic chestnut trees, a variety of conifers, fruit trees, flowering plants, gardens, a large play yard and a nature walk.
Classrooms are spacious with large windows which provide an abundance of natural light.
Chestnut Montessori School was founded in 2008 by Jeannine Hanson to fulfill her dream of a Montessori school where children, parents, teachers and teachers-in-training could learn and grow in an ideal and peaceful Montessori setting.
Your child can experience the joys of childhood and build fond memories while learning at Chestnut Montessori School.
As an AMS school, we follow the principles and practices established by the American Montessori Society.
