Montessori Garden Early Learning & Childcare Centre
To help bring some brightness to you and your children at home we have put together some short videos of our Educators reading and singing, just like we do when we are together! At Montessori Garden your child's education is tailored specifically to them by our dedicated team. We use Montessori methods to build self-confidence, social skills and a love for learning.

At our newly refurbished centre in Underwood, we care for children from 6 weeks to school age and are open from 6.30am to 6.30pm. Childcare Subsidy is applicable. After a lot of research and visiting different Centres, we knew our daughter would thrive here. She settled in beautifully thanks to the care and vigilance of the team and the quality and cleanliness of the facilities - we couldn't be happier and highly recommend this centre.
Services
Our Centre in Underwood is newly refurbished. We encourage outdoor and indoor learning with beautiful spaces that inspire them everyday. The Montessori method believes that children learn best when they learn with their hands. We create a tactile, hands on environment that allows our children to discover, learn and explore.
Montessori Garden Child Care Centre and Kindergarten uses the Montessori Method of early childhood education. It is child led and focuses on the building confidence, social skills and a love and passion for learning. You can find out more in our Learn More area here.

Each day is different at Montessori Garden Early Learning Centre, but some things never change - our children work with a broad range of Montessori Materials and activities to help nurture their individual development and create a purposeful learning environment that is safe and caring.Our on-site chef creates delicious and nutritious meals for our children every day.
The Montessori method is about helping our children develop a love for learning and skills for life. We want them to learn how to learn, not just how to remember facts and figures. Our children have more access to information than any other generation before them. All they need to be successful is to learn how to learn.
Find the room that's right for your family. At our centre in Underwood we cater for children from 6 weeks old to 5 years old. If you're interested in joining one of our rooms and any of our regular extra-curricular activities please contact us here! The children are made to feel safe, secure and loved.
We believe healthy eating habits start from birth. In fact we think it's so important that your child gets the best nutrition that we have teamed up with feedAustralia to ensure that our meals meet Australian Dietary Guidelines. We supply all meals as part of our normal program and prepare in-house to ensure that we are supplying the best in freshness, variety and nutrition for your child.

Positive: Reliability
Our son went to this nursery since 11-19 months and we felt that he was in great hands. Montessori methodology is actually applied since early age and all professionals are fantastic. Our son loved the food and snacks and they were healthy and diverse.

Wonderful nursery with caring teachers and great activities. I can't recommend it highly enough. I looked at a lot of nurseries and knew immediately that this one was right for us. Our son learned so much from his time here and just loved it. Thank you so much to all the lovely staff there.

The educators encourage the kids to be independent, yet inclusive, take controlled risks to boost confidence, be creative and active. I'm also a fan of the cultural diversity of the educators (and students) and how they share that to the kids experience. They also teach very and expose kids to be practical skills like brushing teeth, sun smart, healthy eating, body awareness, cooking, washing hands, identifying different tastes in food (sweet, sour, bitter) and textures, etc.

Montessori Garden Nursery creates such a collegial, almost family-like dynamic between teachers, children and parents. This sense of shared responsibility makes me feel as a parent that my child is receiving the best possible care - the teachers are as invested in my child's development as we as parents might be. Moreover, child development includes socialisation with others and the notion of being a 'good citizen of the classroom'; self care and care for others is emphasised. As parents then, the sense of shared responsibility also means that we come to view the nursery less as a service provider

MGN is a really special place and we are so happy we found it. Our boy was there for over a year and he flourished under their care. It is the only nursery setting we found where the staff seemed really exceptional -- meeting each child's individual needs and tailoring their guidance to the person, not a standard. A gentle atmosphere, fun, engaging, respectful. We felt they nurtured a human being, not skills (though these came along too). A holistic approach that really really works.
Our only sadness was that because of the pandemic, their outings and off-site visits were curtailed and for an

Both my kids are with Montessori. Great in communication and high safety practices and drills conducted in the centre. Not only love the teaching methods and its great getting engaged with all the educators/carers. Just making things a whole lot easier when there are great bonding with the kids and us at the same time. 😁 100% to recommend people in trialling with them if you ain't sure.

I would highly recommend this centre. The staff are very friendly. It has been recently renovated so it is very nice and clean. There is a lot of learning opportunities for your child here. Watching them learn and grow in this environment will be very comforting as a parent.

We recently booked our daughter in here after doing a lot of research and visiting a number of other centres and she has thrived since starting at Montessori Garden in Underwood. She settled in beautifully thanks to the care and vigilance of the team and the quality and cleanliness of the facilities - we couldn’t be happier and highly recommend this centre.

Our daughter loves this Montessori! The staff are fantastic - warm, positive, energetic. I feel they put so much effort in to make it a happy (very kind during settling in/potty training) and stimulating (Hampstead heath visits, playground visits, special monthly music). Highly recommend!
