Our child-led approach nurtures both intellect and empathy, helping children develop confidence, focus, and emotional awareness through hands-on exploration.






We offer clear, straightforward tuition options that make quality Montessori education accessible — with no hidden costs, just lasting value for your child’s future.






At Starlings Montessori Academy in Markham, we offer an authentic Montessori early learning experience for families across Markham, Richmond Hill, Vaughan, and the Greater Toronto Area. Our programs follow the time-tested Montessori philosophy, emphasizing child-led learning, hands-on materials, mixed-age classrooms, and self-paced development.
We operate on a year-round Montessori schedule, providing consistency and continuity for children’s learning and emotional development. Instead of long summer closures, we offer shorter breaks that support steady progress, routine, and security—especially important for young children during their critical early years.
Our Toddler Program focuses on building independence, language, movement, and social skills in a nurturing environment. Through hands-on activities and guided exploration, children begin developing concentration, self-help abilities, and the confidence to engage with the world around them.
Our Preschool Program encourages growing independence, focus, and academic readiness. Children explore language, math, sensorial materials, and cultural studies while also strengthening social and emotional skills, laying the foundation for success in kindergarten and beyond.
Licensed capacity up to 110 children, focused on toddler & preschool programs under CCEYA.
At Starlings, learning goes hand in hand with emotional well-being. That’s why we’ve partnered with Hatch-Me Therapy & Counselling Services, a trusted name in child and family mental health. Through this connection, our families gain access to expert guidance, counselling resources, and additional support when needed. We believe a child’s social-emotional growth is just as important as their academic progress — and this partnership ensures both are nurtured every step of the way.
With limited enrollment up to 110 children, spots will move quickly. Registration opens now for early 2026. Our team is here to answer your questions and guide your application.
