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.
Great educators, great activities and experiences. They are cared for, fed well and are learning! What more could you want for your kids?
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.
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 🙂
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.
Loving and Caring Educators. My child have been going here since 2020 and he loves to come everyday. He has learned a lot and became so independent. We love that they respect multiculturalism and even celebrates. Management is also very nice and understanding.
This centre is so beautiful and welcoming. The receptionist always greets me with a smile.
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!
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.
This centre is very professionally run and our childs language, development and social skills have been thriving since she began attending at age one.
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
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.
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.
I don't know how to thank these wonderful teachers and officers. They are so supportive, kind and helpful.
Nice childcare centre.
I’ve loved having my children attend this centre and watch them flourish with wonderful, caring educators and a beautiful environment.
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…
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.
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.
Such a big fan of this centre! They are super organised, child centric and have a lovely team. Trista, Amy, Tracey, Missy are excellent educators and administrators (to name a few). I've had a positive experience here and we've been at a few child care centres thanks to relocating, the other centres pale in comparison! Worth the wait if you're waitlisted like we were. Montessori style is wonderful for independence as well.
My Daughter has attended Building Futures Montessori - Blackstone since 2018. I have always found the team to be professional, friendly and caring.
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.
