Hannah Khiani worked as a Director for an Investment Bank for 10 years. After having her own children, she left the City to pursue a more joyful career working with children. Hannah set up and ran local toddler groups and drop-ins for children and families, which inspired her to become a Montessori teacher. She trained as a teaching assistant (AMI) and then received her International Diploma in Montessori Pedagogy (MCI). Hannah moved into teacher training, and at MCI was a lecturer and group tutor for the Foundation Degree in Montessori Early Childhood Practice and the Early Years Educator course. More recently, she has written CPD courses for practitioners and developed resources to support inclusive practice in settings. Hannah is passionate about the outdoor environment and works part-time at Unity Montessori School in London, UK, where she can often be found in the school garden playing with the children. Hannah enjoys serving and supporting children, families, students, practitioners, and the wider community as part of Collaborative Montessori.
