Lovingly nurturing the spark in every Jewish child.

About CMCH

Where children explore, grow, and build their Jewish identity.

Our goal is to nurture each child's potential through Jewish values which are brought to life through the Montessori method. We integrate mindful practices with our Torah heritage to foster a love for learning, respect for each other, and a tangible relationship with our Creator. 

Our Approach

Our pedagogical philosophy is rooted in a profound love and respect for each child.

At Chaya Mushka Children’s House, your child will learn to think, observe, and reflect. Instead of giving him the right answers, we will ask the right questions. Learning will become its own reward, and each success will fuel his desire to discover something new. 

 
Testimonials

“Our children have flourished at CMCH, evolving into confident and independent individuals. The nurturing environment has not only enriched their academic skills but also fostered social confidence. We are grateful for the positive impact of CMCH on their journey!”

“Our children felt so welcomed at CMCH. They were excited to come to school from the start & made great friends. They love learning about the holidays and parsha. Their special projects (menorahs, seder plates, etc.) are definitely a highlight for them and for us as parents!”

Melissa Mor
Preschool Parent

“Moving mid-school year with four children was not an easy feat, but having the comfort, welcome and care from CMCH, made the transition as easy as possible. My kids were able to enter organized, happy, healthy and structured classrooms with such ease and joy. Everyone from the office staff to the teachers work incredibly hard to create a beautiful environment for children that nurtures the happiness and learning any parents could ask for.”

A Note from Dassie’s Desk: Balancing Reverence and an Independent Spirit

In the latest message from Dassie’s desk, we explore the delicate balance between nurturing independent thinkers and instilling a deep respect for authority—values at the heart of CMCH's educational philosophy. This reflection draws a timely parallel with Rosh Hashanah’s theme of “Coronating Hashem as King."
