Program Overview
This is a 9-hour Association Montessori International (AMI) course designed specifically for parents and carers. AMI Trainer, Heidi Philippart, considers how parents and carers can foster a home environment that supports the natural development of the child from the ages 0 to 3 and supports the child to reach their full potential.
Heidi explores:
an introduction to essential Montessori principles of infant development
key skills we need to care for babies and small children
how to decide if development is ‘on track’ and what we can do if we are worried
common obstacles that can be removed to support a child to develop to their full potential
Supporting you to support families
This course will help your parents and carers to better understand the fundamental principles of Montessori in the early years and how they can support their child’s development at home. We also welcome educators who work with families with children under the age of 3 to attend. This will aid in their communication with families and ensure a consistent approach.
