Beach Cities Montessori

Ages 2–6

A licensed Montessori day care center at 2233 East El Segundo Boulevard in El Segundo, licensed since October 2019 for up to 269 children. Classes are mixed-age, with hands-on materials, long uninterrupted work periods and child-chosen work, plus structured lessons in math, language, science and cultural studies. Programs are New and Two (ages 2 to 3), Pre-Primary (2 to 4), Primary (3 to 5) and Kindergarten (5 to 6). Hours are 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily: half days end at noon, full days at 3 p.m., and extended care runs to 6 p.m. Children have daily outdoor play, art, music and community time on an outdoor playground. A toddler program for 18 to 30 months is coming soon and takes waitlist applications. Enrollment starts with a tour; if the school is full, families join a waitlist with an application and a registration fee. No potty training is needed, and the site lists no tuition.
