5 stars & nothing but positives for BFM Forest Lake & the educators there. We’re so grateful and thankful for everything they’ve taught & done for our son. We speak very highly of them all…
The office staff are so lovely to deal with, along with all the educators. Such a welcoming environment 💚
We’ve had a really great experience at Building Futures Montessori Wavell Heights. Our child settled in way quicker than we expected, which honestly says a lot about the educators there. They’ve got that calm, “we’ve got this” energy that makes drop-offs feel easy (most mornings anyway 😅). What we love is how hands-on and independent the kids are encouraged to be. It’s not just colouring in and painting, they’re actually doing things, learning real skills, and coming home wanting to show you how to pour water or zip their bag up “by themselves”. The staff are approachable, down to earth, and genuinely know the kids. You don’t feel like just another family coming through the door, which makes a big difference. It’s got a really nice community feel too, not over the top, just warm and steady. We’re really happy we landed here. Would definitely recommend it to any parent looking for a Montessori space that feels calm, real, and supportive.
This centre is so beautiful and welcoming. The receptionist always greets me with a smile.
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.
Lovely staff members with good cares. Nice and kind vibe.
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.
I don't know how to thank these wonderful teachers and officers. They are so supportive, kind and helpful.
Great educators, great activities and experiences. They are cared for, fed well and are learning! What more could you want for your kids?
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!
My daughter attended this centre for 4 years and loved it. As a new parent finding the right centre is so nerve-racking and one of the most crucial decisions you need to make. It was so nice for me going to work knowing my daughter was happy, healthy and the educators were treating her as their own. Children spend so much time in care and it was great knowing she is getting the best start to life with this place. The Montessori philosophy and the educators here taught her so much from how to confidently be part of a community to having independence skills beyond her "level". She has now started primary school and she is such a confident, independent individual thanks to these dedicated staff. Thank you all so much, you are all appreciated beyond words. I recommend this centre to everyone, Montessori is not for everyone but it was definitely the best choice for my family and my daughter.
I have had two children attend this centre from age 2.5 and plan on sending my third child also. One visit to this centre and it will give you a “gut feeling” that your kids will be safe and lovingly cared for here. Staff are friendly, good-humoured, gentle, dedicated to the Montessori educational ethos, always open to feedback and communicate transparently with parents. The centre has a lovely homely/backyard feel with real grass, veggie patches, native bees, guinea pigs, and chooks running around. Overall, it’s been a wonderful community for our kids to be a part of.
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!
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 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.
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!
Nice childcare centre.
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 🙂
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!
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.
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.
This centre is very professionally run and our childs language, development and social skills have been thriving since she began attending at age one.
Great to see the kids being so well looked after
We are extremely happy with BFM Wavell Heights and would highly recommend. Our daughter has absolutely flourished since starting in the nursery room in 2021. Our daughter loves her educators who go above and beyond in providing a beautiful space and presence for child-centred learning and development via the Montessori philosophy. The Centre's provided meals are cooked fresh (often filling the centre with a delicious smell in the morning) and provide a variety of fresh vegetables and fruits and protein sources which helps support nutrition across the day. The Centre staff are friendly and warm and very open to feedback and openly seek input from families re: quality improvement. Thank you for all that you have done for our daughter.
