Allow me to explain with you why I don’t stress about learning and knowing everything about Montessori before beginning my training.

Knowing Everything about Montessori isn’t Necessary

I understand that as an aspiring Montessori parent, or even just a curious person, as you determine to learn everything about Montessori before getting started.

Trust me, I was in your shoes not too long ago. I did a ton of research on Montessori and read countless books and articles on the subject.

But here’s the thing: You don’t need to know everything about Montessori before starting.

In fact, it’s actually beneficial to not knowing everything.

Why? Because as you begin your journey into Montessori, you’ll be able to organically learn about the philosophy and how it applies to your life and parenting style.

There is so much information out there on Montessori (and every other parenting style/philosophy), that it can be overwhelming.

And if you try to learn everything at once, chances are you’ll become quickly bogged down and frustrated (been there, done that).

So my best advice is to take it one step at a time. Start with the basics and work your way up.

Learn about Montessori as you go. And don’t worry if you don’t know everything right away.

Trust me, nobody does.

Montessori Training that I Recommend

As you know, I do free live trainings every week. And every week is about a Montessori topic. These trainings can be found HERE and they are about 20-30 minutes long.

I have several longer Montessori trainings that will be very helpful to you flourish in your Montessori journey. They are 90 minutes long each. You can find them HERE (scroll to the bottom of the page) and work on the at your own pace. There are printable workbooks that go with these trainings.

Now, there is a free 5-day workshop that I offer 2-3 times a year. It is called The Montessori Way Foundations Workshop. In it, we meet live 5 days in a row for 1 hour each day to talk about some very important foundational Montessori topics. If you see this at a time when it isn’t going on, you can go HERE and join the waitlist. That way, whenever this is taking place, you will be notified via email.

Lastly, there is a 6-month Montessori training that I offer on my website. It is called The Montessori Way Foundations Framework. It is a 6-month program designed to equip Montessorians of all expertise levels to build a firm and lasting foundation in the Montessori philosophy that leads to smooth, successful Montessori days by nurturing happy, normalized (independent) children. If you want to know when open enrollment happens, sign up for the waitlist HERE.
