ECCE & NCS Scheme Information

I am delighted that I found Little Scholars Montessori & Childcare. My daughter has learned a lot there, and the teachers are amazing. Initially, there were tears, but the teachers worked their magic, and in no time, she went to school with a big smile, not even looking back. The delicious warm lunch is a great bonus.

Our daughter has been in Littles Scholars Montessori & Childcare for ECCE. I can honestly say since starting her preschool journey with little scholars, she has come on tremendously with regard to her developmental and life skills. We have seen a massive improvement on her speech, social interaction and confidence. She loves the staff, loves the environment and wakes up every day asking is she going to school today. The communication between the staff and ourselves is of a high standard and always kept us posted on our daughter’s progression. Any concerns we have ever expressed, the staff listened, acted and resolved any issues that were highlighted. We would highly recommend Little Scholars Montessori & Childcare and we look forward to another year of watching our daughter learn, develop and continue to prepare for big school.

I Believe my child have learned a lot in service and have made lovely friends. I recommend service should have full time working hours till 6 pm. So that working parents can avail this wonderful service .

My daughter Emily has attended Little Scholars Montessori & Childcare since September 2023. She moved there from a different preschool. Since she has been there, she has come on in leaps and bounds. Her behaviour and her school work have improved immeasurably. The facilities and the staff are both excellent. The school is bright and airy with plenty of room and the outside playground is very well laid out and equipped. The staff are very knowledgeable and friendly and communicate with us very well regarding Emily's progress. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking for a good preschool.

My little girl Emma started ECCE in September at Little Scholars Montessori & Childcare, Baldoyle and we couldn't be happier with the choice we made sending her there. The teachers are doing a fantastic job with the kids, lots of great and interesting activities and they are having a lot of fun every day. My little girl started with almost no English and now after 6 months she can talk perfectly, and I want to say a big thank you to Nicola and Susan for everything you are doing for her. I can't recommend this preschool highly enough.

Little Scholars Montessori & Childcare is a fantastic preschool and we could not recommend it enough. Our son loves it and his confidence and overall development has thrived since he started. The preschool is clean, organised and has a lovely (safe) garden area for the children to play in. The staff are all wonderful, kind and caring people. They really take the time to get to know your child. Communication via the app is brilliant, we love to see little photos and updates on what our boy is getting up to. Little Scholars offers extended hours, which has been a lifesaver for us. A hot meal is provided for the kids doing longer hours and honestly the menu is better than what I cook at home! Overall we cannot speak highly enough of Little Scholars and we recommend it to anyone.

My son loves Little Scholars Montessori & Childcare, so much so I had to extend his hours, as he was coming back home crying most days wanting to stay longer! The teachers are lovely and compassionate, and it's small size means that children get personalised attention. Communication with the Manager and Owner is always clear, timely and courteous. I would wholeheartedly recommend this service to any parent looking for a child led service.
