Description

Welcome to a calm, Montessori-inspired baby and toddler programme designed to help you understand your child’s development and enjoy truly purposeful play together.

These small, gentle sessions (maximum 5 parent–child pairs) are a chance to slow down, connect and learn how your baby or toddler is developing week by week. Each 40-minute class combines simple, beautifully set-up activities with clear, evidence-based guidance for parents.

Rather than fast-paced sensory entertainment, these sessions focus on building real developmental foundations: attention span, problem-solving, early communication, fine and gross motor skills, independence, confidence, and secure bonding.

Across a 6-week curriculum, you’ll discover:

• how babies and toddlers learn through calm, structured play

• which developmental milestones are emerging in your child’s current stage

• how to support these skills at home without buying lots of toys

• Montessori-inspired ways to set up your space, rotate toys and encourage independence

• practical, science-based guidance for everyday play and interaction

Each week includes:

• a short explanation of a key developmental theme

• guided purposeful play activities tailored to your child’s age

• time to observe, connect and explore with your baby

• take-home suggestions you can use immediately

The atmosphere is warm, welcoming and never overwhelming. Activities are simple, beautiful and intentionally paced — giving your child the space to discover at their own rhythm. Parents often say these sessions make them feel more confident, calmer and more connected to their baby’s learning.

Suitable for age groups:

• 6–9 months

• 9–12 months

• 12–18 months

• 18–24 months

• 2–3 years

If you’re looking for a class that feels meaningful, educational and truly supports your baby’s development, these sessions are for you. Come join a small, supportive group and enjoy purposeful play the Montessori way
