Testimonials for HHMS

"Talitha came to our home and provided us with detailed and organized ways of implementing the Montessori principles into our home. With her advice, our daughters' (and our) space has transformed." -Maria Morshed Austin, TX

"Helping Hands Montessori School gave our son the perfect environment to thrive in as a toddler.  He learned grace, courtesy, and love for himself and others in a compassionate and uplifting setting.  We are so fortunate to have found such a special place for our little one." Zeina El-Azzi  Santa Barbara, CA

"I've attended your workshops in the past. I always felt it provided a great forum for parents to ask questions and get ideas for instituting Montessori principles at home." -Laura Beale, daughter 2 ½

"We couldn’t have had better teachers for Asia OR for ourselves as parents of a 1-3 year old…there are no great schools/learning centers for 1-3 year olds and HH Montessori truly fills that void in an astounding way.  For the value of care our daughter is receiving a level of foundational life skills, confidence, sense of self and leadership that would be akin to private schools and an MBA without the Harvard price tag. Finally, the sense of community and connection between the kids, teachers and parents have become a joyous part of our lives" – Tarek  Morshed  Austin, TX

Helping Hands Montessori Services is a local business designed to help parents, teachers and schools in their efforts to provide the best possible care to the children in our community. I offer a variety of services for parents to incorporate Montessori Philosophy through purposeful activity into the home. This allows the child to particiapate in every aspect of the home life and promotes an authentic approach to the child. We meet the sensitivites of your child(ren) which helps to provide an opportunity for the child to live nauratlly in the home.

The mission of HHMS is to share and deepen the knowledge of Maria Montessori’s philosophies in order to promote self-reliance and independence in young children. We want to help families build a bridge from the home environment to the school environment. Our ultimate service is to aid the child in reaching their greatest potential.

What's new with HHMS??

Greetings from the Montessori World!! What's new with Helping Hands Montessori Services you might ask? Well for starters, I have added a Montessori home program to my forte. So far so good. We have three toddlers and 1 year old who is my child. She is transitioning great! The children come to school at 9 am and are ready to go outside and play. It really is the best time because we live in Austin and it is really hot still. So we have outside time for about 30-45 minutes. Then we go inside and wash hands and work in the classroom for a little bit. Then its snack time. If the children are hungry before that, they are welcome to have snack and I really try to encourage them to listen to their bodies. We work with the materials and I give morning lessons. The classroom is set up like a traditional Montessori classroom with low shelves with a few thoughtfully placed items on each shelf. We also have a kitchen set up where the children work and do pouring exercises, etc. There is a really fun rug with roads, train tracks, a park, and a race track on it. The boys really love this! We also have an area for dress up that is available any time for the children. We have an awesome outside area with swings, basketball hoop, garden, bubbles, sidewalk chalk and a whole lot more. The children are learning lots of grace and courtesy and practical life. More to report soon.
