Welcome to My Montessori
Find the Class for your Child
My Montessori is an authentic Montessori school located 58 Windsor Road, Kellyville. We proudly welcome families from Kellyville, Rouse Hill, The Ponds, Bella Vista, and surrounding suburbs.
Led by award-winning educator Sylvia Arotin, My Montessori offers Montessori programs from birth to school readiness, including parent-child playgroups (0–3 years) and Montessori programs for children aged 3–6 years. As the first traditional Montessori school within Blacktown City Council, we are proud to be a pioneer in early childhood education.
Our prepared Montessori environments are hands-on, sensory, and thoughtfully designed to support each child’s independence, confidence, emotional regulation, and love of learning. Guided by experienced Montessori educators, children develop essential life skills such as responsibility, problem-solving, and social-emotional awareness at their own pace.
At My Montessori, we partner closely with families to support child development, behaviour, and school readiness, creating a strong foundation for life.
Sylvia Arotin has been involved in Montessori teaching over the last 15 years and her passion for children’s learning and development, as well as supporting and educating parents, is fundamental to the My Montessori school.
