Bella Montessori Preschool and Nursery

Welcome to Bella Montessori Preschool and Nursery, located in the beautiful town of Kaiapoi, New Zealand. As Kaiapoi's first educational Montessori Preschool, we are proud to provide a nurturing and stimulating environment for children aged 0-6 years.

At Bella Montessori, we have a team of highly experienced teachers who are passionate about early childhood education. Many of our teachers hold a combination of an Early Childhood Degree and a Montessori qualification, ensuring that your child receives the highest quality of care and education.

Our philosophy is centered around creating a supportive community where children learn to look after one another. Our teachers actively promote gentle and caring interactions, fostering a sense of empathy and respect among our young learners.

In addition to our comprehensive Montessori education program, we offer specialized art, soccer, and ballet classes throughout the year. These extracurricular activities provide our students with opportunities for creative expression and physical development.

We warmly welcome new families to visit our preschool. Feel free to drop by anytime during our opening hours to see our facilities and meet our dedicated staff. You can reach us at 3276066 or 0212772170.
