Customer Reviews
Source of inspiration, highly recommended
I’ve listened to all of Simone’s podcasts and loved them all. I read her blog (the Montessori notebook.com) regularly and it’s been a source of inspiration, insight and comfort. These podcasts do the same for me, if not more!
I love the interviews with various Montessori and parents and listening to their journey makes me realise there isn’t a perfect way to parenting- but only doing our best with what we know! And that Montessori is a way of life, everyone can try it, and use it in a way that works for their own family, without having to BUY lots of materials.
I love the calming voice of Simone, she sounded very kind and non-judgmental, makes listening to her advices and thoughts such a joy. I just got her book The Montessori Toddler in my mailbox today and am so happy to see that she is the same relatable, inspirational and calm soul in her blog, book and podcasts.
I love listening to her every Friday when a new episode comes out (where I am), it serves as a reminder to me of who I want to be as a parent, gives me space to reflect the week, and energy and hope to start the next. It’s like a form of self care for me. Thank you for your channel. Sincerely.
