Becoming a Montessori Parent, from Pregnancy to Toddlerhood
Like any major event in our lives, whether it be going off to college, getting a driver’s license, or getting married, parenting takes preparation. Preparing ourselves early on to become the Montessori parents we aspire to be, takes deliberate effort. When we know what to expect and contemplate how we might want to react, navigating pregnancy, birth, and the early stages of parenthood will be less stressful, more joyful, and more intentional. As a lifelong Montessori enthusiast and a compassionate doula, I invite you to join us in this important conversation on how to best guide our children and ourselves through this important life transition.
