Yes, foremost in my goals for Ellia is to cultivate a lifelong love of learning through positive experiences in her learning environment. I believe her early experiences will greatly influence this. I am excited at the potential to have a Montessori learning experience for her early education since it was such an enriching and memorable experience for me when I was a child. I look forward to pre-school continuing to nurture her sense of self and confidence in her abilities to handle things and to stoke her curiosity about the world around her. I want her to trust in her abilities and have the gentle guidance of compassionate stewards in her learning.
