Our prepared environments allow children to reveal their capabilities, often exceeding our own expectations.
We respect each child's natural rhythm, allowing them to develop confidence through uninterrupted work periods.
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.
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!
Lovely staff members with good cares. Nice and kind vibe.
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.
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!
The office staff are so lovely to deal with, along with all the educators. Such a welcoming environment 💚
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.
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…
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 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 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!
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 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.
We are extremely content about this establishment, our daughter can have something to do all day long, well looked after and learning how to social.
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.
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.
My almost 2 year old son has been attending since the end of March 2026 and we are very pleased with this centre. The staff are professional give the best care to my baby. Mu son comes home happy, fed and is learning new skills which is exactly what you want from a daycare centre. I'd recommend Building Futures to anyone and everyone.
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.
We've been with Building futures Montessori Blackstone since 2015/2016 and they are just outstanding. Such amazing staff, great initiatives, a very welcoming community and I could not fault the care they've given my children over the years - I look forward to the years to come. My 7yo still remembers his time with building futures with great fondness, they definitely helped in creating the confident caring little boy he is today. I couldn't have found a better centre or community to help care for my children.
I don't know how to thank these wonderful teachers and officers. They are so supportive, kind and helpful.
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 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.
