We tried Seton but they are full and the waitlist is closed. We will likely be living in Burr Ridge or Darien. Any Montessori recommendations for those areas? Thank you!

Just out of curiosity, how did you go from looking at Hinsdale to Darien/Burr Ridge with a $1.2M budget? They are nice communities but I wouldn't invest $1.2M there.

Regarding your question, it appears there is a Montessori in Darien. Don't know anything about it but you could give it a try. If you are open to other suggestions, Ready, Set, Grow in Darien is great. The owner is a family friend and we put one child through there and she really loved it. The teachers are great and far less staff turnover than most other facilities.

Haha, good question, we are actually thinking about renting for a few months until we can find something we love. We are out of state and have to move in June, so if we can't find something to buy right now, we will focus on a rental. Thank you for the advice, absolutely not going to spend that kind of money there.

I am open to suggestions other than Montessori! Thanks!

If you're open to renting in any desirable town, one of Wheaton's Montessori schools is in the middle of an expansion, which might mean no wait come next fall:

Welcome - Wheaton Montessori School

It's the only Association Montessori International (AMI) recognized school in the western suburbs.
