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.
Lovely staff members with good cares. Nice and kind vibe.
My Daughter has attended Building Futures Montessori - Blackstone since 2018. I have always found the team to be professional, friendly and caring.
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.

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!
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.
I don't know how to thank these wonderful teachers and officers. They are so supportive, kind and helpful.
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!
I’ve loved having my children attend this centre and watch them flourish with wonderful, caring educators and a beautiful environment.
BFM was the best thing we have done for our kids! The staff are like an extended part of the family. Walking into the centre felt like a big warm hug - greeted with friendly familiar faces, and the smell of freshly centre cooked lunches (which I always wished I could hang around for!). The care the educators took with my babies was exceptional. The education they received meant they were both emotionally and mentally prepared for their schooling starts, making this such an easy transition. This is all thanks to the confidence BFM instilled in them. I highly recommend to anyone who wants their kids to be well cared for, well adjusted and seen as a whole child. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5/5 shining stares from us!!
This centre is so beautiful and welcoming. The receptionist always greets me with a smile.
Great to see the kids being so well looked after
Great educators, great activities and experiences. They are cared for, fed well and are learning! What more could you want for your kids?
Nice childcare centre.
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.
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 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.
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.
As soon as you walk through those doors at BFM forest lake you are greeted by the warmest kindest lady, you can sense Tracey's passion instantly. My son attended this centre at the age of 3 he was very relaiant on me within a very short time. Carson was very independent. Carson had stomach issues and wasn't toilet trained and the care Nadine, Glenda, (Gee Gee) Jess and Bella gave my boy was amazing and nurturing anything I asked of them they delivered. I'll be forever grateful! Thank you sooooo much
The office staff are so lovely to deal with, along with all the educators. Such a welcoming environment 💚
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!
