Cadamstown Montessori

Cadamstown Montessori Preschool is located within Cadamstown National School, a mixed, rural school in Moyvalley, North Kildare, approximately 7 km from Enfield, Co Meath. The preschool provides a safe and welcoming environment for young children in the local community, offering early childhood care and education alongside the primary school’s facilities. The programme follows the Montessori philosophy, encouraging self‑directed learning through hands‑on materials and mixed‑age groupings. Children are supported to develop independence, concentration, and a love of discovery in well‑equipped classroom spaces and a secure outdoor play area. The approach places a strong emphasis on holistic development, nurturing social, emotional, physical and cognitive skills in line with national early years guidelines. The centre is designed to meet the needs of families seeking either part‑time or full‑time care for babies, toddlers and preschool‑aged children. Small class sizes promote a low child‑to‑staff ratio, allowing personalised attention and a smooth transition for children moving on to the national school’s primary classes.
