Charlesland Montessori

Looking after your little spaceman…

ure, it’s only natural that a parent would want to love, cherish and very much protect their precious offspring.

To make sure that they have all the best things in life, and grow up healthy, happy and full of magic.

Which is why so many Greystones parents have been sending their little loved ones to Charlesland Montessori for the past 26 years.

Its popularity is largely down to the mighty Rita Byrne, who is not only a mother of two but, hey, a St Nicholas Montessori teacher has qualifications in childcare, psychology, medical care and beyond. Believing in the small home-like créche rather than the traditional supersized variety, Rita actually has three Charlesland Montessori HQs around the town – in Charlesland Park Montessori, Charlesland Park Nursery and down at Shoreline Leisure Centre.

In the Park, service is provided 51 weeks a year, from 7.30am to 6.30pm, for babies from 11 months, toddlers and Montessori to school starting at 4/5 years of age. In the Grove, it’s 51 weeks a year, from 7.30am to 6.30pm, with Montessori 2½ to 4/5 years of age and with Breakfast and Afterschool Club for kids aged 4 to 13 years (aka Junior Infants to 6th class), whilst at Shoreline, it’s 38 weeks a year, from 9.15am to 12.45pm for 2½ to 4/5 years of age. More details here.

Most importantly, there are 4-hour E.C.C.E. and a couple of full-day places now available, and those wishing to sign up their beloved should get in touch with Rita and the gang right about here and right about now.
