Classrooms and Educators

At O’Briens Montessori Centre we offer five classrooms following the Early Years Learning Framework combined with the Montessori philosophy. Each classroom is designed to support your child's growth every step of the way. Each room is tailored to meet the developmental needs of specific age groups.

We understand the value of consistency in Early Childhood Education, which is why each of our classrooms are staffed with dedicated, permanent Educators. This allows both you and your child to form strong, trusting relationships.
