Bring you. And more.
True North Montessori’s mission is to integrate a strong foundation that is centered around mind, body, and soul. I believe that incorporating skill sets through play instills a healthy nervous system that sets our next generation up for success.
Our Approach
What Is Montessori?
Welcome to True North Montessori!
My name is McKenzie! 🙂
True North is a foundation built off of a dream of what childcare could be/what it could look like. Working in the education system gave me the opportunity to see that. Unfortunately in our current childcare settings, we are not giving the children what they need, but what we think they need. It isn’t control, negative reinforcement, or an unrealistic child to teacher ratio that sets our little ones up for success. They deserve more than that. They deserve guidance, safety, and granted permission to be themselves in a world that slowly strips them away of their uniqueness.
Throughout my experience and observations, I have found that the most beneficial approach to childcare is through Montessori techniques that stimulate a healthy nervous system. All of which gives resourceful tools to navigate life’s challenges later on.
My goal is to help guide the child’s internal compass. I believe in giving children a safe environment and the freedom to be who they are without the fear of taking up space. True North is a preventative based approach that promotes positive psychology, autonomy, self-efficacy, and resilience.
