This is truly the most wonderful preschool! I cannot recommend it enough. They are supportive, caring, proactive, fun and friendly. They have permanent consistent staff which creates a family feel and consistency for the kids. We discovered this preschool when we moved to Stanmore Bay and our experience compared to other preschools has been 1000% more positive for our child (and us!).

Montessori Beginnings is an exceptional Preschool. The teachers are genuinely caring and make a significant intentional investment in each child's learning and development. They work hard to foster children's belief in themselves and their capability. Our son's confidence has totally blossomed here. Prior to attending he wouldn't even let us push him on a swing due to being shy and very cautious. Now he is rock climbing, taking risks and having waaaay more fun on the playground...he wants to swing higher and higher!! Since he takes so much responsibility at Montessori, we even have him washing his own dish at home in the same routine after meals. It really helps him to contribute and have independence with helping, getting dressed and team work. Thanks to the wonderful teachers at Montessori Beginnings!!

Our son has absolutely loved his time at Montessori Beginnings Preschool, and we couldn't be happier with the care, attention and support he's received. The teachers have created such a warm and engaging environment. We've watched his confidence, independence, and social skills with other kids grow so much since he started. What stands out most is the genuine care the team has for every child - thank you Katy, Ellie, Leslie.....everyone! It's clear they take the time to get to know each child's personality and interests, creating experiences that help them thrive. As parents, it's incredibly reassuring to know he's so happy each day he's there. We're very grateful to the entire team for everything they do and wouldn't hesitate to recommend the preschool to other families.

We love Montessori beginnings. Amazing staff, thoughtful care of my 4 year old girl and our whanau. Her strengths are recognised here and nurtured with intention, specifically her love for arts and crafts, writing, problem solving and singing waiata 🤍 she no longer has a fear of bugs (which is huge) thanks to the Monti frogs and learning to catch critters to feed the frogs. There has been space for her to lean into her caring nature and leadership skills with the younger kids. The environment is peaceful with happy kids.

We love Montessori Beginnings! You won't find a better place to entrust with your little person. The staff are amazing. They genuinely know and care for all the kids in the centre. The emphasis on learning independent skills has been notable for our boy and has translated to a give things ago attitude in the home. A real community of families as well. The children form amazing friendship within the space which has been a delight to witness. Great communication all round. You won't regret sending your child here its more then childcare they're teaching and shaping whilst having a blast along the way! Thank you MB team for all you do for the families enrolled.

We can't emphasize enough how pleased, happy and grateful we are for having our kids at the Montessori Beginnings Preschool . All the teachers always have been really welcoming to our little ones and us as a family. The level of care, teaching and relationship has been over our expectations. Kindness, respect and love to each other have always been a priority. Learning throughout playing has been an amazing tool that my little ones will carry forever. Thank you lots. Pam and Mark
