Our Story

 

Taking responsibility, being respectful, showing compassion and taking care are heart-centred qualities the child unfolds in partnership with a trusted adult.

'The child has his own laws of development; it is a question of following these, not of imposing ourselves upon him.”

- Maria Montessori

 

Our Aroha Nui Montessori classes are facilitated by Carli Hausler and Nadya Kavci. We are both trained in the work of Maria Montessori (AMI birth to three years old Diploma) and qualified early childhood teachers.

We wish to create an environment that supports parents to see the wonder in their child(ren) and offer practical ways to support them and their child growing together.

Both of us have also been inspired by Emmi Pikler, Attachment Theory and Sensorial Integration practices. Closer to home Carli has attended the Dance with me in the Heart facilitator training by Pennie Brownlee. Nadya is passionate about yoga, art, has business qualifications and is Mum to 2 children.
We are further inspired and supported by The Heart School.
