    Week 3: A Montessori Mind: Pamela Green

    This week I have Pamela Green sharing with me ideas of Maria Montessori and the aspect that is often overlooked in centres, in training and within the home. Pamela has worked with the Montessori method for over 30 years! She is the Founder and Owner of Ananda Montessori, which is an environment for parents, caregivers, and their children to come and learn together. In her Parent-Infant, Parent-Toddler, and Parent-Preschooler classes, the guidance and facilitation of adults in care of their child is as important as the guidance of the Child. Along with these classes, she also does parenting classes, groups, and workshops, based on Montessori and Positive Discipline. She offers parent/caregiver mentorship, consulting in person or via video conference, for parents, teachers, staff, and schools. Meeting the person where they are, and in response to their unique needs. She works in the creation of Parent and Child Playgroups, such as at Ananda Montessori, and offers this training to those interested and is also a frequent presenter at Montessori conferences. She helps parents during pregnancy and has been teaching childbirth education and attending births since 1990. Offering guidance, support, workshops, and consultation in this area as well. She has also been acting as Head of School for over 30 years, and teaching in Montessori during this time. Phew, thats a lot! It was very inspiring to speak with her and I learnt quite a bit about the other side of Maria Montessori that I didn't know was there.
