West End Montessori Pre-School

As a Pre-School we are catering for children from 2-5 years.

We are situated in a wonderful location at 23 Park Circus. Our nursery provides a warm and friendly atmosphere in the security of a beautiful period listed building. We have our own private garden within the nursery and we also have the use of the private garden in Park Circus. In addition we are right on the doorstep of Kelvingrove Park.

We are registered for 35 children.
