Welcome to The Montessori Notebook. This is the place to learn everything about Montessori at home.

Easy-to-follow, simple steps for busy families like you.

As well as some deep-dives into Montessori theory from time to time too.

Whether you are brand new to Montessori or want to go deeper, you will come away with practical ideas you can try today.

I love to translate 
Dr Montessori’s wisdom so that every family can benefit from such a simple and respectful approach to raising children.

Simone Davies

Montessori educator, author, parent

I can’t wait to share with you everything I’ve learned over the past 20+ years as an AMI qualified Montessori teacher and raising two children in a Montessori way (now young adults).

I am also the author of 3 best selling books about Montessori including “The Montessori Toddler” and currently run my own parent-child Montessori classes in Amsterdam at Jacaranda Tree Montessori.

Just as Marie Kondo is helping people declutter and organize, Ms. Davies helps parents turn homes into places that are more functional for the family, instil autonomy in the smallest members of the household and create a greater sense of peace — all in the
Montessori spirit.

Kind words from families

about Simone…

I just wanted to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the work you do. Your book, which I refer to often gave me confidence to follow my instincts which were so closely aligned with the Montessori style and, after my husband read it, we’ve become so united in our parenting approach which has created greater respect, love and trust. Thank you also for your incredibly valuable newsletters. I’ve learned so much from you. There isn’t a single parent in my life who I haven’t highly recommended your work to.

about The Montessori Toddler book…

“Your book arrived the other day and I can’t put it down – which is making my nights rather short lately haha – but so worth it 🙂 I just wanted to say thank you for your effort and courage in putting this wonderful book together”

– Edith, Germany

about the Setting up a Montessori playgroup bootcamp… 

“Unbelievable amount of information and invaluable resources! It’s obvious that a LOT of work went into this well-organised course! Thank you for sharing and reminding us what Montessori is really all about 💖.”

– Patty, Canada

about The Montessori Child book…

“My parenting bible. The book reassured me in my parenting approach and it also brings me much new inspiration and many ideas for everyday family life. I love the way Davies and Uzodike revisit the works of Maria Montessori and make them up to date and accessible for broad audience. With their help it is easy to bring the
Montessori principles in life.”

– Kristyna

about the Setting up your home online course…

“I loved it! Tackling changes to a house can be intimidating and Simone did a great job breaking things down with humor and that great balance of information that inspires instead of overwhelms. I loved the supplemental materials and charts her website provides. I plan on taking any other e-courses she puts out there!! Thank you Simone!”
