Montessori at Bethlehem

Nestled in the heart of Bay of Plenty, Montessori at Bethlehem stands as a beacon of excellence for early childhood education and care. Established with the belief that every child deserves a nurturing environment where they can grow, learn, and thrive, our center has been a cherished part of this community for years. Our Montessori Program caters to children from 6 months to 6 years old, providing an all-encompassing educational experience designed to foster their intellectual, emotional, and social development. We are deeply committed to the Montessori philosophy, which emphasizes self-directed activity, collaborative play, and a holistic approach to learning. In our Baby Program (Nido Room), we nurture the youngest members of our community, providing them with a safe, loving environment where they can develop trust, autonomy, and a sense of security. Our Toddler Program (18 months to 3 years) is designed to encourage independence, creativity, and curiosity as children take their first steps into the world. Our dedicated teachers are the heart of Montessori at Bethlehem. They are not just educators; they are mentors, guides, and friends who genuinely care about each child's well-being and development. With a passion for early childhood education, our teachers create engaging, meaningful learning experiences tailored to each child's unique needs and interests. At Montessori at Bethlehem, Kindergarten is more than just the final step before formal schooling. It's a time of exploration, discovery, and growth as children prepare for their future academic journeys. Our Kindergarten program offers a rich, stimulating environment where children can develop essential skills, make lasting friendships, and foster a lifelong love of learning. We believe that every child is capable of great things, and it's our privilege to partner with families in Bay of Plenty to help their children reach their full potential. Whether you're looking for a supportive and nurturing environment for your baby, an engaging and stimulating setting for your toddler, or a comprehensive Montessori education for your school-aged child, we invite you to join our family at Montessori at Bethlehem. Together, we can help shape the future leaders of tomorrow, one child at a time.
