Waterfront Montessori Children’s Centre is now accepting registration for ages 2½ to 5 years. Please contact us to make an appointment to visit the Centre by email or telephone 416-203-1017 (24 hour answering service).

Waterfront Montessori Children’s Centre celebrated our 35th anniversary in 2009. The Centre’s program is a unique combination of the Montessori method and Early Childhood Education, which gives our children the best of both approaches.

Our 32 space childcare centre located on Toronto Island is licensed by the Ontario Ministry of Community and Social Services under the Day Nurseries Act for children ages 2½ to 5 years. Our Summer Day Camp is for children ages 4 to 6 years. Our Summer Day Camp runs four two-week sessions. Child care subsidy may be available through Toronto Children’s Services. City residents are escorted on the 10 minute ferry ride by our staff to Ward’s Island. From there we walk or take the “bike-bus” to the Centre.

There will be bike decorating, face painting, a fun relay race, and bike maintenance clinics. All for only $10 per family! Click here to see the full-size flyer.


Our Bike Bus Has Arrived and it is Amazing!

The children are loving it and are good about taking turns on the trips to school and for field trips. It holds 8 children and one driver. It is very easy to drive. It was paid for entirely by Fundraising. Thanks to all who donated to this green initiative and thanks also goes to TD bank for a grant from Friends of the Environment! Who knew that making a difference could be so much fun!
