Paula W.

Our son has attended Malama Montessori (Na Keiki O Kula) since he was 15 months. He absolutely loves it (as do we!). The staff are so caring, nurturing and engaging, and the set up as well as the activities and learning opportunities on offer are incredible. He has learned a huge amount and really thrives in this environment, and always looks forward to his school days. We can’t recommend it highly enough.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I look for in a quality daycare?

While academics and certifications are important, look for a daycare that your child truly enjoys with staff that you feel confident in.

At what age should we consider preschool?

Studies have shown that interactive learning activities are a benefit starting at 1 year old. We would be happy to discuss the best time for your child to start preschool.

How are your tuition fees determined?

Our tuition fees are based on the number of days your child wishes to attend school (2-days through 5-days available). We offer extended care hours until 5pm for an additional charge, depending on the number of days needed. In addition, we charge a non-refundable $175 Registration Fee.
