Leafbud Montessori

I warmly welcome you to Leafbud Montessori,an award winning authentic Montessori and Nature play family day care for children aged between 3-6 years in my own home environment.

As an experienced Montessori Educator 0-6 years ( MEC Ireland) a birth Doula and a mother of three adult children every child and family that comes into my care will be welcomed with reciprocity and a commitment to working collaboratively to guide their child through emotional connection and trust. I will endeavour to prepare an enriching calm predictable environment that sparks curiosity and fosters independence in a nurturing Montessori home environment.

As an Educator it is a privilege to guide your child as they develop life long skills through social emotional experineces in play and meaningful experiences of preparing nourishing food, baking bread or tending to our vegetable and bush tucker garden. Together we observe and follow the seasons using natural materials to craft and learn about Indigenous perspectives. We welcome families to share their culturally diverse background through stories, music and traditional dishes. I attune to each child's natural rhythm and individual ways of learning and being in the world. The Leafbud children develop a strong sense of self, care for all living things and gain skills that support them to be competent capable humans in an ever changing world.
