Ep. 10 | Freedom & Limits Webinar

How can we set kind and clear limits with toddlers? Do we use discipline or praise in Montessori? How can I help my child through their struggles? How do we support correct behaviour and deter deviant behaviour? We talked all about these questions and more in a 1.5 hour webinar back in 2020! Now I am sharing the Zoom recording with you! It includes a lecture & questions and discussion in the end.

Ep. 9 | Co-working at home with a toddler or baby

Hello there! Today we are discussing the Montessori-inspired approach to co-working at home. This is for anyone who is interested in how to balance their own productivity and passions at home while being a present, Montessori-minded parent. With so many of us working from home and homeschooling, I hoped to bring some encouragement, inspiration, and positivity through this podcast. I hope you find it compelling and helpful!

Ep. 8 | Montessori Sleep Podcast with Chloe Huth

The topic of this podcast is -how to sleep and be happy- Child psychologist and sleep specialist, Chloe Huth, speaks with me about how to handle the most common challenges in sleep so the whole family can find balance and rest. Her approach is very respectful and individual for each child, much like in Montessori + I also chip in with Montessori tips.

Ep. 6 | How to stop toddlers from hitting, pushing & biting

Our discussion this week is the Montessori approach to an important, and sometimes a seemingly impossible topic: how to stop toddlers from hitting/pushing/or biting. Your toddler might be going through this phase currently and this podcast will help give you the tools to deal with it the next time the situation arises, and eventually prevent it from happening. This podcast will answer the following three questions: Why should we get involved? Why do toddlers hit, push, or bite? And how should I respond when this happens?

Ep. 5 | How to say "no" by setting kind limits

This week's podcast is about saying "No"- how to set limits in a kind a respectful way. In Montessori we prepare the child's environment for their natural development, and we also prepare ourselves to offer guidance, model behaviour, and set limits when necessary. I hope you find this helpful!

Ep. 3 | Translating for Toddlers

From 1-2 years old children are faced with the struggle of having many intelligent ideas, but lacking the linguistic ability to express themselves verbally. They may use 1-2 words to convey a whole idea. In this blogpost my hope is to help us to see the world from their position, understand their language, and give supportive reactions.
