Let's give our babies and toddlers the best possible start into their lives!

The Ultimate Montessori Masterclass Series for Zero to Three

I'm ready to learn more!

Are you a parent, caregiver, or educator of an infant or a toddler?

Do you often find yourself wondering how to get your child to cooperate or how to navigate discipline the Montessori way?

Are you curious how to enable independence and confidence in these youngest members of your families and classrooms?

We all want to see our children thrive...

But sometimes, the parenting journey can get difficult, right?

We get so many emails and comments from you, parents from all over the world, going through different emotions and kinds of situations...

Do these comments sound familiar to you?

"I try to be positive, calm and loving, but all I get is whining, tantrums and meltdowns. Sometimes I feel lost and I have no idea what to do."
"Being at home with my child feels lonely. And when we finally meet with some other families with children, our son keeps on hitting other children, screaming and throwing things. I am having very hard time to keep my calm."
"The constant testing of boundaries is driving me crazy! I say "no" and she goes and does the exact thing! I feel like a guard and not like a mother."

"Sometimes I worry about whether I'm doing a good job raising my child. I feel like I am not meeting my child's needs or that I am not competent as a parent."
"I try to offer activities to my son to support his development. Everything looks so perfect on instagram. But our home never looks like this and my son is often not interested at all with what I prepare. What a frustration!"
"I feel overwhelmed and exhausted. Sometimes taking care of my children is already physically and emotionally demanding and then when it comes to my daughter's picky eating or evening bed battles, it is just too much. "
