"At the beginning of the pandemic, I was so worried that my toddler would miss out on learning opportunities because he was stuck home with his parents instead of in daycare, especially since neither of us knew much of anything about early childhood development. Montessori Beginnings gave us such great new ideas on how to create spaces and environments in our home to promote our toddler's growing independence and self-discovery, and, most importantly to us, gave us the skills and support to find our own confidence to be both parent and at-home teacher."
- Mary, Nam’s mom
“So many childish activities seem trivial to grown ups, but a child’s concentration is not a trivial thing.”
-Dr Maria Montessori
