Your Child's Education
Is Our Passion & My Story
Hello parents and caregivers. My name is Mary-Anne Hossack. I am the owner of Montessori Gold Coast located in Mudgeeraba Montessori Child Care Kindergarten & Preschool.
I want to share my story and journey with you. I started my own Child Care Centre because, as a parent I could not find a centre for my then two and a half year old daughter, that offered the loving, caring and clean environment where she would learn and achieve real outcomes. I wanted her cared for while she was learning – I wanted her to get the very best in early education as every parent does!
This is what I wanted. I realised the only way I could get this for my daughter and other families that felt the same concerns and needs was to start my own child care centre and build the learning environment model and outcomes from scratch. I embraced the Montessori Method because I saw the best long term benefits for infants and children right through life.
I created this Montessori Child Care Centre at Mudgeeraba to give my own children and your child the best possible start in life! With our new baby born August 2015, we reaffirmed our commitment to provide what our children need to furnish them with the very best start we can.
Beware of Impersonators! Some Centres say they are "influenced by Montessori" with a few tray activities - that is not the real Montessori so don't be fooled into thinking it is.
My centres are staffed with double qualified educators - both in "Montessori" and "Australian Children’s Services". Be aware of the fact that the word Montessori is not patented and anyone can use it. Thus, the use of the word Montessori is no assurance of quality. I trained my staff to my personal expectations and now we deliver these and make them available to you!
We have been providing the very best to Gold Coast families since 2006, with an honest, respectable and reliable service. Our results are obvious and attainable regardless of whether your child joins us as an infant or for our School Ready Kindy program.
A local school Principal describes our children as "well mannered and ready to learn!" If this is what you want for your child in a friendly centre that marries play and education in a way that really works then get in touch today!

WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT
MONTESSORI GOLD COAST
Natasha W.
We love Montessori. Our son moved here at 14mo after a less than positive experience at another centre and has absolutely thrived, the difference is obvious. The educators are caring and involved and so knowledgeable about actual child development, we feel he is really seen as an individual and has grown so much as a result! Highly recommend

We've recently moved to the area and even from before we arrived, Mary-Anne went over and above to make us feel welcome and comfortable. Now that we're settled in, I'm even more impressed. After my 18 month old struggled with drop offs in her first week, Mary-Anne checked in with me regularly, texting me outside business hours to reassure me and offer tips for settling her in.

So pleased with this centre and the caring staff. Recently moved from Sydney with very unsettled children and have had so much support from the centre it's made the transition so much easier.
