"Your class completely changed the way we think about our child and his nutrition.  Not only is he eating better, but his teachers say he is behaving better.  Thank you!"

- Monte Greggory

"The training of the (parent) is something far more than a learning of ideas. It includes the training of character; it is a preparation of the spirit."
                                                - Dr. Maria Montessori


Montessorians work diligently to prepare themselves and the environment for children's greatest development and learning. Yet often parents are not aware of how to best foster this same independence and respect in their homes.

We offer two hour evening trainings designed to inspire parents to create beautiful, simple learning environments in the home, as well as promoting continuing education in the principles of Montessori.

Bringing It Home:
Montessori Methods for the Home Environment

Why wait for your child to enter pre-school to start educating him in the Montessori method? You can use the methods and spirit of Montessori right from the day your baby is born, and begin creating the long-term impacts.

Join us for an evening of insight, fun and tools you can use immediately with your infant. Benefits of a Montessori education include children who are happy, independent, self-starters and have strong self-esteem.

Topics will include:

  • Designing your home as an invitation to your infant

  • Promoting language development through everyday activities

  • Tools for promoting self-esteem in your infant's everyday life
