Dedicated Professional Educators

Established in 2008, Westside Montessori School is owned and operated by Liz Bovey, who holds an internationally recognized Montessori teaching diploma from the Toronto Montessori Institute.

Liz has 12 years of teaching experience and prior to opening Westside Montessori School, she was guiding young children at well-regarded Montessori Schools in Toronto.

Westside’s classroom teachers are either AMI (Association Montessori Internationale) certified or MACTE (Montessori Accreditation Council for Teacher Education) and hold university degrees. Our classroom assistants have completed their Montessori classroom assistant’s training course. All staff maintain valid first aid and CPR training, along with updated police clearance checks.
