Wetherby House Montessori

About this day nursery

Wetherby House Montessori, established in 2012, is dedicated to providing Montessori Early Childhood Education for children aged 9 months to 5 years. With six locations across London, including Northwood, Harrow, Kensal Rise, Kensal Village, Brondesbury, and a forthcoming opening in Queens Park in September 2026, the nursery group focuses on fostering a positive, safe, healthy, and nurturing environment where children can flourish.

Their core mission revolves around making learning enjoyable and joyful, cultivating self-confident individuals, encouraging curiosity, and preparing children for future educational success by instilling positive "can-do" attitudes. The philosophy is deeply rooted in the Montessori method, which emphasises guidance without overt interference, allowing children to develop independently and at their own pace.

They aim to ignite a love for learning by presenting concepts in beautiful and clear ways that stimulate imagination, believing that this approach resolves many educational challenges. The nursery encourages visits, offering both open days and personal tours, to ensure parents feel confident in their choice.

They also offer a structured admissions process, including a registration fee and a deposit to secure a child's place.

Our ethos

At Wetherby House Montessori, we support your child’s social, emotional, creative and learning development while providing a positive, safe, healthy and nurturing place for them to thrive. In early childhood education (9 months - 5 years) our goals are: 1) make learning fun and joyful 2) grow self confident children,3) encourage curiosity, 4) set children up for educational success 5) establish positive "can do" attitudes". We believe that "The child should love everything that he learns, for his mental and emotional growths are linked. Whatever is presented to him must be made beautiful and clear, striking his imagination. Once this love has been kindled, all problems confronting the educationalist will disappear.
