BestStart Montessori St Albans (formerly Montessori St Albans) caters for an infant community of 12 month to 3 year olds and includes a full Montessori classroom for 3 to 6 year olds.

We are located in a lovely, refurbished St Albans villa which immediately feels like a home. The warm environment is created by our very experienced and exceptionally well qualified teaching team. Teachers respect and encourage the independence and capabilities of each child. 

We provide a full, authentic Montessori programme supported by Montessori teachers who offer an enriched programme full of opportunities. We value open communication between families, teachers and children. We are proud of our welcoming and inclusive centre, where our families know they are always welcome.

We have received a fantastic Education Review Office (ERO) report, achieving the very best grade for all early childhood centres in New Zealand.

kind words from our parents

Parent

We love coming and Henry has thrived so much since starting. I love seeing what he is accomplishing. It is always a nice surprise when he does something I haven’t taught/done with him and know it has come from preschool.

Parent

Recently I enrolled my 4 year old into BestStart Montesorri St Albans. She was not receiving enough mental stimulation or structure and was bored at her previous early childhood centre. She has been a different child since starting at BestStart, her behaviour has improved dramatically and she looks forward to going each day. The teachers and children have been welcoming and kind which has made the transition effortless. I highly recommend this centre. I only wish we attended sooner!

Parent

I am very glad to see my daughter where she is today with her overall development. She's been with you 7 months and has become creatively so sharp, become confident, she is trying to understand what is right and wrong, and become more caring. BestStart worked tremendously well with my daughter.

Parent

Thank you so much for all the wonderful care you have shown both George and Charlie over the last 7 years! Both boys have had a wonderful start to their school life and have felt very nurtured and supported under your care and guidance. Thankyou! Truly from the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much for all that you have done for our two boys.
