Shepherds Bay Montessori Academy Child Care Centre

My child has spent 3.5 years at Montessori Academy, and I think this was the best educational choice made by us so far. The centre has very friendly staff and high teaching standards. They have got the little one fully ready for school. His English has improved significantly and he can read English books as well as he does in his first language. The teachers at Montessori encouraged my child's curiosity and always followed his interests, but also taught him independence and discipline, which helped me a lot.

Both of my sons are at the center, and the educators take excellent care of them. They are very attentive, making sure to dress them warmly in cold weather and changing diapers promptly. The children are also happy; my younger son, who is 1 and a half years old, eats and sleeps well at the kindergarten every day, which gives us parents great peace of mind.

Excellent day care in the area. Clayton came to the centre since he was an infant and he’s made his way all the ways through P2. It’s sad that he has to part ways soon as our family is moving. Attentive staff members and my child really enjoyed his time here. Thank you for taking care of him for the last 4 years. Hope this review helps other parents decide where to entrust theirs children well-being as well as education in the future. Thank you

We would highly recommend to anyone this childcare. The best childcare my kid had ever attended. My daughter LOVES coming here. The staff and the educators here are so passionate and so caring. I especially like their transparency and way of communication. The center manager and the team are on top of things, they keep the parents in loop for all matters - like upcoming activities, educators leaves schedule, special occasion etc. The classroom, toys and the equipment are well organized and tidy. You can tell the staff here are constantly maintaining them and they really treat them with care.

My daughter is at the preschool year and she has progressed so much ever since she has started here. She has became more independent and more confident nowadays. I particularly love their Montessori session, it really fosters the children learning. The educators here are exceptional, the curriculum is well planned. Some of the work they planned for the kids are very creative and thoughtful, unlike some other childcare, the work was quite repetitive and not as engaging.

One other thing we also really like is that the team has spent extra time in organizing excursions, kids performances, events and even offered optional weekly sports. As a parent, I am so thankful that I have enrolled my kid to this childcare. Its been an amazing preschool journey for us. I can write an essay about all the positive experiences we had.
Thank you so much Montessori team!

Our 2 year old daughter is currently enrolled at the Centre and has just transitioned into the toddler classroom from the infants room.
Our experience with the infants room educators was exceptional and our daughter was supported to settle in well. One of the things we really liked and appreciated was the level of honesty and transparency from the staff even when something had not gone so well. When we provided any feedback to the room leader, she took ownership and promptly resolved the concern. The room leader and the staff also followed up on the feedback in later weeks.
Our daughter's transition into the toddler room was well supported and she seems to have settled in well. We have already started noticing the progression in her development and interaction with ourselves and others.
The Centre Manager without a doubt is running a tight ship and it is quite evident that she is passionate and very much hands on with the children in the classrooms. We are very happy with the decision we made to enrol our daughter into Montessori Shepherds Bay campus. Well done team xx

My son attended Montesorri Shepherds Bay from the day it opened and he absolutely loves it there.

There was bit of staff turnover at the start (which is expected with any new business) but the staff are quite settled now. They have hired excellent educators who are genuinely caring and give really good (timely) feedback.

The Centre Director is a lovely lady who is so helpful and responsive.

The centre is so clean and so organised. I love how they have designated areas for different age groups.

Overall, I am extremely happy that I have chosen this centre for my son. My youngest will also attend soon!

Staff is really friendly and professional. Caring for little ones can be challenging but they do it with love and patience even in difficult situations. Every time we asked something they did it right away. Our son loves this centre and developed so much since he started there. He can speak English now and became really independent.
Teachers are never too busy to take pictures or update parents right away.

My 1 year old really enjoys going to Montessori. I really appreciate all the educators for caring and treating my little one as if she is their own child. I also appreciate the different Montessori led style activities they get the infants to do. Such great practical skills! We have really seen the skills our little one has picked up since going to Montessori. Keep it up Shepherd bay team!

Amazing centre! Our daughter LOVES coming here and we have complete trust in the educators to provide a fun and stimulating day. All of the team are so friendly and welcoming, any concern they address right away and provide excellent reporting on our daughters progress. She’s learnt so much here, it’s been wonderful for her development. Highly recommend!

My son loves the educators and staffs of this campus, they are caring and loving people, always giving children warm hugs. What’s more, the outdoors and classrooms have great hygiene standard, we had enrolled since the first day of Shepherds bay campus opened, but my kid barely got serious cold or other bacteria or virus infection from the campus.

Extremely attentive and friendly educators who do their best to ensure all needs are met and concerns addressed. Centre is always well maintained and clean and correspondence prompt and regular. Could not ask for more and am very glad that my son is attending. Thank you Montessori team!

Thank you team Montesorri for looking after little M so well. He thrive since joining the centre and learns so much everyday. Glad that his formative years are formed with the help of quality educators who genuinely care about his development and wellbeing. Centre manager have been fantastic as well -- responsive, very helpful and quickly become little M favorite person in the centre. Thank you all :)

The teachers are great, very supportive and professional. Our daughter loves it and is excited to go there everytime. The online course provided during lockdown was an amazing additional service provided that came unexpectedly but wholly welcomed, shout out to Miss Zac! Definitely recommend.

Very organized and teachers are very friendly and nice! My kid really loves this care center and online classes in the lockdown period. Thank you so much for Ms Zac who gave those kids excellent online classes in the lockdown.

It’s a amazing centre. We are really happy and glad our little boy is there. All the educators so professional, kind and helpful. Plenty of activities, following the Montessori curriculum. Couldn’t be more happy. I’m truly recommend this centre ❤❤

I feel my son is well beyond where he would be without Shepherds Bay Montessori. I find the staff to be dedicated to the kids personal growth. They are professional and approachable. I highly recommend them.

The centre staff are very nice and friendly. We get a lot of support from them to settle. I am very appreciated their help.
