About Leafbud Montessori
I warmly welcome you to Leafbud Montessori,an 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.
Reviews for Leafbud Montessori

Thank you, Natasha! Our daughter has emerged from her first 5 months of learning with Natasha with confidence. She’s a confident learner, a confident socialiser, a confident speaker, a confident sharer, a confident toilet user, a confident ‘putterer’ away of toys, a confident suncream user, a confident puzzler (code for ‘can get through 24 hours without Bluey’), a confident baker of bread! Natasha, first & foremost creates a nurturing space, opening the doors to a deeper/holistic learning, where curiosity in process is fundamental. Allowing the children to discover the joy in doing. The only downside is that my daughter now knows more continents than I do.

Leafbud is just wonderful. We have been so lucky to have both our daughters attend this magical place. The warm, creative, nurturing environment which Natasha has created is amazing. Our daughters loved every minute of it, and we saw them each rapidly develop socially and cognitively through their Leafbud experience. Now that both our daughters are in school we love coming to the picnics and reconnecting with the Leafbud community. Thank you Natasha for bringing Leafbud to life!
