Darwin Montessori Early Learning Centre

We moved from Sydney to the mid-north coast in early 2025. Looking for a preschool for our then 4 year old was obviously a big consideration. In the midst of a major life change for our little family, having our daughter attend Darwin Montessori was a game changer. Michelle and her team really go out of their way to make you feel included in their community. I was soo impressed that a large portion of the team have been there for an extended period, a true testament to the consistency of Michelle’s leadership and attention to nurturing relationships. When we came for our tour, she introduced herself to our daughter first, getting down on her level and engaging with her and her interests from the jump. This carried through until graduation, Always seeking ways to extend learning opportunities within areas of interest. Michelle’s team treated our little one with respect, gave her agency, loved her through challenging behaviours and supported her to be a kind friend and engaged learner. We will miss our time at ‘Rainbow House’ and would encourage any parent to go for a tour and see if it would be a good fit for their family.
