In this live event, Mariana Bissonnette brings her expertise and real-world experience to explore how a child’s need for order plays a critical role in their early years. Drawing from her Montessori background, Mariana will help parents and caregivers understand why predictability matters so much for toddlers and how to honor it at home.
Mariana dives into the importance of creating a calm, structured environment that supports toddlers’ natural development. She’ll share practical strategies to foster emotional regulation, independence, and resilience—all while balancing the realities of modern parenting. From routines to prepared spaces, parents will gain actionable tools to navigate common challenges with confidence and empathy.
This session is perfect for parents, caregivers, and educators eager to learn how Montessori principles can create harmony and growth in a toddler’s day-to-day life. Mariana’s thoughtful approach makes this talk relatable, practical, and full of insights you can start using right away.
