During my years as both a Certified Montessori Teacher and a caregiver, I received numerous requests from parents for more information outlining practical methods to facilitate their children's development in a simplified, condensed manner that honored the Montessori way. The result is this book. I have restricted this material to only the most comprehensive and applicable lessons for parents, parents to be, and guardians. I Include fundamentals and ideas taken directly from my hours in the classroom, my time as a nanny, my personal studies, and from insights shared with others dedicated to the tradition. Happy teaching!
