BFM Blackstone is amazing! It has fantastic, friendly, experienced staff who go out of their way for anyone, especially the children. They communicate quickly and regularly and are very responsive to any query I have v My child always has fun and has grown mentally and intellectually under the guidance of the educators. I wouldn't go anywhere else!
My Daughter has attended Building Futures Montessori - Blackstone since 2018. I have always found the team to be professional, friendly and caring.
My daughter has attended Building Futures for the last 4 years and has just graduated from Kindy and will start her schooling journey in 2021. We have been so happy with every aspect of this daycare - the educators are amazing, front of house staff very welcoming and professional, the activities and montesouri learning the kids engage in have taught my daughter so much and I couldn't be any more grateful. Special mention to Miss Sarah, Miss Tehana and Miss Tamika - all wonderful educators who do a fantastic job and always smiling i know my little one will miss them alot.
The team at BFM Blackstone have a genuine passion for caring and educating the babies and kids at the centre. Our 2 year old daughter has grown in her independence and confidence over the past year at the centre. We love the daily photos and feel like the educators partner with us as parents to achieve what’s best for our daughter. We are challenged by the educators to introduce her to new skills and activities before we would have thought about it, which is fantastic. My husband and I feel confident going to work everyday knowing our daughter is in safe hands. Keep up the great work BFM team!
The office staff are so lovely to deal with, along with all the educators. Such a welcoming environment 💚
This centre is very professionally run and our childs language, development and social skills have been thriving since she began attending at age one.
Absolutely amazing education experience for young children. So glad that we invested in the Montessori method and these particular educators. I'm quite an anxious Mother and here I'm reassured that my kids are emotionally physically and intellectually cared for.
The team are amazing and so supportive. Wouldn't send my children anywhere else. Can't praise the team highly enough for the work they do!
Beautiful centre with amazing staff. I think it's better than play based as children get to learn life skills as well as academics. Highly recommend.
We have sent our children here since 2015 and have only praise for wonderful educators here. They don’t seem to churn through the staff like other centres and lots of the faces that I see at drop off now are the same ones that I saw at drop off 5 years ago. Both of our kids have blossomed at BFM and I can go to work knowing that they are in good hands. I wouldn’t send my kids anywhere else.
My child has attended the service since she was 20 months, she is now about to turn 5 in the kindy program and have had nothing but positive experiences. The educators are always more then happy to help with any extra needs my child requires and am glad we chose building futures for her care 🙂
BFM has some of the best educators I have ever come across that truly care and love the children in their care. Miss Jessie, Miss Tayla, Miss Missy and Miss Nilu are super educators that always disburse a warm and positive energy around them. I have witnessed Miss Jen and Miss Chloe C be so genuine with every child they come across, both taking their time to form special bonds with every individual child and tending to their needs.
My second child is about to finish his care with BFM and we are very sad to say goodbye to this incredible community of staff and families. Our children have experienced first class education and care with the BFM team here and both of my son's have loved their experiences at the centre. The staff have become a well loved part of our family over the last 4 and a half years having cared for my youngest child from the nursery through to now prep age, and my eldest from 2 years through to school as well. My eldest son left with so much confidence and strong foundations moving into the school system and I can already see that my second son is set to do the same. The philosophy of Montessori was the absolute best start we could have given our children and were even taught by the centre how to implement some practices into our home environment. I cannot recommend this centre and the staff enough. Thank you for all you have done for my children.
I wanted to write up a quick review and thank all staff for the amazing work they do and hopefully assist other parents in their decision of Childcare. Verbally I am always saying the wrong thing so I hope that even as impersonal as a review can be, I can appropriately express my gratitude to the BFM Team. Firstly, I want to express gratitude regarding the exceptional work in the current climate, in such uncertain times BFM have acted quickly, professionally, and compassionately, this is no easy task but one that is greatly appreciated. My Daughter, Kiara has been a part of the BFM family for roughly 3 years and despite her Sassy ways her educators have always put in so much love and I truly believe Kiara's compassion is a true reflection of the Teams work, my daughter is a handful but BFM has been a huge blessing in our lives and I cannot wait to see her continued growth over her next few years. Montessori has not only been an amazing fit for Kiara but already an amazing gift in the development of her future. My Son started his BFM journey at 4 months old, so for just over 4 and 1/2 years BFM was a part of his life (and still is) in that time Nate made lasting friendships, crawled, walked and said his first words, all the milestones that a Mother cherishes for life, you all shaped and encouraged, there are no words to express the gratitude for this. More recently Nate was diagnosed Autistic (level 2) as the course of this diagnosis we were engaged with a Clinical Psychologist, now this may seem irrelevant however the background taken during these assessments are quite extensive, not only did I provide the statements so kindly written and provided by Montessori but the Psychologist looked into Montessori's Philosophy, as such from a professionals view, I would like to share with you all a written statement in Nathaniel's diagnostic report. "Nathaniel displayed Moderate to High levels of functioning across the diagnostic testing, this has not been present at such displayed levels previously due to the structure, routine and delivery of education provided by Building Futures Montessori" I hope this statement is validation that the work BFM does not only makes a difference to Parents and children but is also recognized by Health Care professionals as beneficial to the development of children and in this case, children with a disability. From my perspective, a few staff know my story such as Maddy, Heather and Yas, they know somewhat of my own mental and physical health concerns and quite frankly horrible 2020, but despite this, I have been made to feel welcome every day 5 days a week, offers of assistance, kindness, understanding and compassion have not only made a life of difference to my children which I could never truly express how grateful I am for, but all of this has also made the difference in my own life, not only professionally but personally, the kindness shown by staff on those hard days, the lack of judgement when I’m on Parental struggle street, the encouragement when my hands have been thrown up in the air in defeat but, and importantly, the love I was shown when I lost my brother early this year, it takes very special people to grow such impressionable little hearts and minds but I think it is very important to know that you have all have touched my heart also and when I needed it most. I hope this goes a little way in expressing just how valued Montessori is in my little families lives and can bring just one smile like the many you have given us. From one very grateful Mum.
My girls have been going to BFM Blackstone now for 2 years, and as a parent, I find all of the staff to be so responsive, helpful and understanding. Never do I feel like my concerns fall on deaf ears and I am always kept up to date with how my children are progressing and what they may need assistance with. I am so grateful to have found a beautiful centre like this and My girls will continue to be here until they reach Prep. If you are looking for a great day care facility, I honestly could not speak higher of this centre.
I have twins who attended Building Futures from 4 months old until they left for prep! The twins learnt all of the things they needed to confidently start school. The staff were amazing! They cared for my children as if they were their own. I always felt comfortable leaving them at the centre.
The staff and admin team do their best to cater for the needs of each family and child in their care, forming relationships with the children and their families. The children have a natural curiosity about the world around them. The Montessori way of learning supports their love of learning.
Building Futures Montessori have played an integral part in both of our children's early childhood development. It is so much more than a childcare centre, it is a family and we are so lucky to be apart of that.
Beautiful centre, the kindest educators who have cared for my 2 girls for the last year. Management so understanding and helpful. Wonderful Montessori program with such thoughtfully prepared classrooms. It’s been a pleasure seeing my children blossom while in care here and such good value for money with an all inclusive program!
A wonderful centre that has a 'home away from home' feel. The staff are very kind and nurturing, and deliver high quality Montessori educational programs. Our child is thriving at the centre and we are delighted to be part of the Building Futures Montessori community.
My son was at Building Futures Montessori Forest Lake for 5 years, he absolutely love it! We had great experience with all the teachers and educators, love the Montessori philosophy, all the resources and practices that was on offered, highly recommended!
Really high recommend! My son and daughter had wonderful time in this center. There are so many lovely and amazing staff. I want to say a big thanks to Miss Hannah,Miss Tehana, Ms Sarah, Miss Tamika, Ms Binny, Ms Moah!! (由 Google 翻译) 教育家们很棒。 Tehana女士,Sarah女士,Rubi女士,Tamika女士,Binny女士都是优秀的教育家,他们是出色的沟通者,并抽出时间来听听您的担忧并做出回应。 管理团队,另一个故事。
A fantastic day care and montessori. I have nothing but praise for their professionalism and expertise in the field of childcare and early learning.
My son has been attending the centre just over 1 year now. From the moment I first enquired to then meeting the educators that would look after him I signed up then and there on the spot. The educators helped my son transition from full care with me at 6 months to learning to be with other safe adults and children. They helped transition him into the cot for day naps which was amazing, especially being a purely breastfed baby feeding to sleep every nap with me. My son has grown up so much and they have helped him in this journey as I work full time. With every daycare comes sickness and accidents and they’re dealt with in the highest regard for the children’s safety. I highly recommend this daycare to anyone wanting to put their child in care. It’s a safe environment and overall has a great vibe from the educators, to the building and the fellow kids.
