Media Children's House is a private Montessori school located in Aston, PA. Founded in 1976, MCH offers programs for children ranging from 18 months through elementary school. As educators, we view each child as an individual with a unique personality and learning style. MCH provides an individualized learning environment that helps foster a life-long love of learning by making education engaging, substantive, and fun!   ...

The Montessori method was developed by Dr. Maria Montessori and is based on self-directed, non-competitive activities that help a child to develop a strong self-image and confidence.

Parents and family members are encouraged to share their experiences in the classroom and contribute at school activities. We provide an online community that helps facilitate personalized communication with the school, enhancing the overall MCH experience for our families. Parents have access to the latest MCH news/events, important notifications, classroom photos/videos, personalized student updates, and much more! ...
