Start Smart Montessori Centre was created in 2022 in Novi Sad with the desire to create self-motivated and responsible children and educate parents while respecting individuality, freedom of choice, and the world around us, using Montessori methods.
Depending on the wishes and needs of your children, we offer 60-minute lessons two or three times a week.
Start Smart aims to educate your child through diverse activities and play while developing independence, empathy, socialisation, self-confidence, motivation, attention, emotional maturity, logical thinking, and motor skills.

Our care of the child should be governed, not by the desire to make him learn things, but by the endeavor always to keep burning within him that light which is called intelligence.
