My daughter has been attending since she was 8 months old, just a couple of days each week, and she is absolutely thriving. Michelle, Jason, and Emily are excellent educators — warm, professional, and genuinely caring. As a first-time parent I felt nervous about leaving her, but the team put me completely at ease and have been wonderful in supporting her development. I’m delighted with my choice of nursery and so grateful for the nurturing environment they’ve created.

I’ve waited a few years to write this review, as I wanted to give a really informed opinion. My son has been here since he was 9 months old and I have mixed feelings. First of all, it’s worth knowing that this isn’t an accredited Montessori centre (which was why I chose it, despite it being a long drive for us). I feel this isn’t adequately communicated and I only found this out through my own research. Communication has always been relatively poor; there is no app, no child folders, no personalised updates, and not even any verbal updates about your child unless you really press the staff for info. There were newsletters that came out every 2 months, which had a handful of blurry photos and a high-level summary of room activities, but these aren’t even emailed anymore, just taped to the doors. There are also parent/teacher interviews once or twice a year. But there have been a number of times where I learnt about something my child had been struggling with only AFTER the issue/behaviour had been resolved, e.g. “He’s finally speaking at childcare” or, “he’s more confident now in playing with other children”, to which I’d think, “I didn’t even know that was happening! Why did no one tell me?” My son also took a very long time to settle in here, and staff turnover is high. We’ve had 4 centre manager in 2 years. Friends of ours have removed their children due to them never settling in properly… although perhaps this happens at every childcare centre. The space, however, is beautiful. Everything is very well looked after, clean, and new. My son has learnt a lot and has beautiful manners, which I know he’s learnt from the educators as we speak a different language at home. He puts toys away, takes his shoes off indoors, has learnt his colours and other basics. The chef here, Will, is amazing, and I’m pretty sure my son eats better at childcare than at home. Overall, it’s difficult for me to recommend Montessori Beginnings for the key reason that there’s a lack of communication about my child. It’s hard enough having to leave such a young child with other people, but I feel like I’ve lost even more precious time as I know almost nothing about what he does for 8 hours each day. I think this could be a great centre, but right now it lacks warmth and connection with families. It’s a well run business, but I think most parents of little children need more than that.

My daughter have been attending since she was 5 months old, she settled in very quickly, the educators are very attentive and caring, they also follow my daughter usual routine so that makes her feel at home

About Montessori Beginnings Maribyrnong

A place for your child to thrive
Montessori is a method of education that is based on self-directed activity, hands-on learning and collaborative play. Children work at their own pace and their own level. Habits and skills developed in a Montessori classroom remain for a lifetime.

Montessori Beginnings aim is to help each child reach their full potential in all areas of life. Montessori activities promote the development of social skills, emotional growth, physical coordination as well as cognitive preparation.

Another unique part of the environment is the formation of a community with at least a three-year age range in classrooms. This allows for children to learn from each other in a non-competitive atmosphere and directly prepares the child for living in society.
