Voices from participants

Hi, I am Maria

Montessori Nanny Training

As an expat mom of 3 young children and a Montessori certified Early Years Educator, I know how difficult it sometimes can be to communicate your educational philosophy to your nanny.

Having lived over ten years in Benin, Ethiopia and Vietnam, I have experienced how difficult it can be to access quality educational activities and materials, which inspired me to create Abracadabra Creative Learning, so you do not have to struggle in the same way to find high quality educational offers, as I did!

I have been privileged to train over 300 nannies in more than 15 countries in play-based learning and positive education. Together with my trainer team, we are happy to upskill your nanny. 

I love seeing how every day items can be transformed into fun play ideas in a few minutes. You do not need a lot to come up with amazing creative play and learning ideas. Together with my team in different countries, I’ll show you and your nanny how.

Curious to learn how we can organise a nanny training in your location?

The 3 key principles of the courses

Practical Learning

The training engages nannies in hands-on learning and implementing activities in their work with the children on a daily basis from day one of the training.

Daily follow-up and encouragement

A mix of training sessions and group reflections, concrete tasks and challenges to implement each week creative learning activities and daily personalized coaching on homework questions and results hold the nannies accountable for their own learning.

Usage of natural and recycled materials

In view of sustainability and the feasibility of all activities in different contexts of each country, all the activities taught can be done with natural and recycled materials available around you.
