Very nice and well attended nursery. It has made a very positive impact on our son. He was happy to go everyday, always had good things to tell us about. The staff are very professional and courteous. Communication is excellent. I would most definitely recommend it to everyone.

Our daughter went to the Montessori Nursery School and we loved how she learned essential skills to prepare her for her later years and to be a good citizen! The teachers are very experienced and good with children. They value nature, conservation and teach children the skills they need to deal with the problems and situations they will face later in school and social settings. The Director is very accommodating and approachable. The space is well ventilated and sunny! The children have lots of Montessori activities that have helped with intellectual and social development.

My son started his nursery life last year and enjoys his life there. To my surprise, children were so calm and happy and focused on their own activities in a big hall space with organised equipments. Teachers often explained things gently, with children looking into the teacher’s face and listening. My son naturally joined as if he had been there since long before. Soon after, we received his settling in report which explained how my son progressed and settled at the nursery. We were surprised, touched, reassured with the report contents how quickly they realised his features. Small class and authentic, good teachers and teamwork exists, so it is possible to observe children carefully. Also we believe it helps creating trust and allows children learning in a relaxed atmosphere, resulting in encouraging good performances for both sides. Through photos and updates, we can check how my son engages activities, and overcomes learning challenges. Also teachers explain how those activities affect the development of children, not only academic but also emotional development in words with a lot of photos. It is great to see the pictures of his progress and life at nursery very well. During the sensitive stage in which children learn everything and anything from surrounding environments, we are grateful for the chance for our child to go to this authentic Montessori Nursery School. My husband and I appreciate not only the wonderful teachers, also other children who create a good vibe at nursery and their kind and supportive parents, warm next door church people and neighbours who greet and chat as we pass each other. One day my son and I were told “my daughter also went there and has wonderful memories”. The whole community makes a heartwarming, welcoming atmosphere. I cannot recommend this nursery enough.

Excellent nursery, my 4yr old daughter has been attending for over a year and is happy every day I pick her up. She talks very fondly of the staff once home. Would thoroughly recommend this nursery.

We will always feel extremely grateful that our children had the opportunity to attend The Montessori Nursery School in Edinburgh. Trish and her wonderful team have created a very special space in which the children thrive, learn and grow in every way. Our children both absolutely loved their time there and we all felt bereft when it was time to move on to Primary School. Positive Communication, Quality, Professionalism, Value

This is a hidden gem and was perfect for our son. It's like a second family, the staff are very well trained and have a very caring nurturing attitude. They are totally committed to the children and implement the Montessori approach in a very sensitive and aware way, bringing the parents along with them at the same time. It's also more affordable than other Montessori nurseries in the city. Would highly recommend. Positive Quality

A marvellous nursery and we consider ourselves so lucky to have found it, it was the best place we could have ever sent our little boy. The staff are warm, caring and extremely competent in their roles. Their commitment to the children is unparalleled and this showed itself in our child's progress. As parents, we felt we were integral to the whole educational process and were kept fully abreast of developments. I cannot recommend the Montessori Nursery School enough!
