St George Montessori Engadine has been the most nurturing and warm environment for our child. The team of educators have always been so warm and welcoming. Our child has grown and developed so much since attending the centre, and has formed such strong and meaningful attachments with the team of educators. We would recommend this centre!

Our son has been attending St George Montessori for the past 8 months since he was 9 months old. We are very happy with the decision we made to send him to this child care. The educators are kind and caring. They make us feel at ease when we drop our son at off that he is in goods. The activities are also great for his development. At the end of each day when we pick our boy up he is always in a very happy mood as he loves each day centre. So a special thanks to Toni and the team for creating an environment where our son feels comfortable and can develop to the best of his ability
Response from the owner: Hi Bryce, thank you for leaving a 5 star review! We're thrilled to hear your son enjoys his time at our centre, where he can have fun and also learn to the best of his ability through the support of our educators!
We have been at the Centre for 18 months now and couldn’t be happier. Our Almost 2 year old looks forward to going, and speaks about her educators when she’s not there, which is a great sign that she feels safe and secure in her surroundings.There’s always great communication from the staff and thorough cleaning happening at the end of each day.Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend our friends and families to the centre, and know their little ones would be well cared for.
Response from the owner: Hi Meghan, thank you so much for you 5 star review! We are very pleased to hear your daughter loves our Engadine centre! Our wonderful educators always go above and beyond for the children at our centre!
Our son began at St George Montessori at 6 months old. It’s was earlier than we had hoped but circumstances (Phillip Lowe) gave us no option…It has been the best thing we could have done for our boy! His development has been incredible thanks to the activities programmed by Toni and the team at Engadine. He loves his days at the centre and loves the ladies that work there even more!We couldn’t be happier with St George Montessori. Thank you to everyone there that takes such wonderful care of our child and all the children who attend.

Response from the owner: Hi Emily, thanks so much for your 5 star review! We are so pleased your little one loves attending our centre!
Our baby boy has been going to St George Montessori Engadine for quite some time now and we couldn't be happier. Million thanks to Ms Toni, Ms Konnie, Ms Katherine and literally everyone at the centre.Ms Toni (Centre Manager) has been so kind, helpful and accomodating while Ms Konnie has been our son's favorite educator (we are jealous!). Being apart from our boy is tough but knowing that he is being cared and loved at the centre sure make it so much better. Needless to say, we won't hesitate to recommend St George Montessori to anyone! Thanks again and stay awesome!
Response from the owner: Hi Tatchaya, thanks so much for your 5 star review! We are so glad your little one loves St George Montessori! Our amazing educators always do their best to make our centre is like a home away from home for our children!
We moved our son here having been disappointed with a different daycare centre in the area and we couldn’t be happier! He learns every single day and we’ve seen noticeable developments in him since day 1. He has also become far more sociable and we love the level of detail the team go to to ensure parents are kept informed with what the kids are up to!
My son has been going to St George Montessori Engadine (SGM) for 18 months. We find that the educators are wonderful, and no trouble is too much for them. Kids are well looked after, and the environment within the day care is wholesome, and one that is filled with love and care. The curiosity and inquisitiveness of kids is encouraged, and patiently answered. Meals are healthy, and prepared on site.The Montessori curriculum plays a major role in my boy's upbringing. He is learning so much, and I have seen a 360 degree growth in his learning skills. I highly recommend SGM to any parent who is looking for a safe, loving and caring environment for their baby.
