Life is not measured by the breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away” – Maya Angelou.Working with children has given me so many of those precious moments! The things children say and do, (and) the joy and delight they feel when they achieve something they have been persevering with… As a Montessori practitioner, my role has always been that of being a role model, an observer and a facilitator – providing the appropriate environment, guidance, support and opportunities. I have had the privilege to work in Montessori settings for over 20 years and am looking forward to many more!
