Purpose Built

Footprints Montessori currently runs at the new purpose built premises in Cashelard Village. This new building is bright, spacious and purpose built to suit all the needs of the preschool child.
Sensory Garden

We also have an outdoor sensory garden area for the children. Here the children will get to explore their natural environment and learn about the care of plants, vegetables and flowers. Kay and staff feel the children will benefit greatly through learning in their outdoor environment through fun.

I can´t rate this Montessori highly enough, my son used to cry when the weekends came, he missed Kay and his new pals so much. The variety of activities is second to none and really brought the creative side out in my son, he now can sit for more than two minutes. Well done to Kay and staff and I know there will be tears when we leave.

I can’t recommend Kay and her staff in Footprints Montessori enough. I have had three kids attend there and every year when you think they can’t get any better ,they excel themselves adding more and more activities.The staff are outstanding, the care and attention they put into each individual child is second to none.Not only do they learn the skills needed in the classroom but the activities outside from learning to ride a bike to caring for animals. My kids had the best experience in Montessor… Read more

Our son Darragh started Footprints Montessori in September 2019. From the first day he loved it.We can’t recommend Kay and her staff highly enough.Their hard work and dedication to making the children feel at home is second to none.It’s comforting to know as we drop off our child that he is met with a big smile and he can’t wait to leave us and get inside. Darragh has come on leaps and bounds since he started. We wish Kay and staff all the very best for the future. Leslie and Martina Keaney… Read more

My son has blossomed since starting at Footprints Montessori under the care and guidance of Kay and her staff. They have become important people in his life and he loves going to `Kay´s House´ to meet all his friends, play, have fun and learn lots of new things! Kay and her team have helped my son enormously with his speech and language skills, social skills and generally learning more about the world around him. I attribute this to the dedication, care and attention given especially by Kay an… Read more

We are amazed at how much Lucia has progressed both academically and … Read more
