About Ms. Virginia
When my son was young, I explored different educational philosophies and landed on Montessori. I had no idea at the time how this would impact my life! In 1986 I moved to Sacramento to become certified as a Montessori teacher.
Since then, I have guided so many young children through the Montessori Method to become independent thinkers and academically prepared for a lifetime of learning. I have also trained countless interns, mentored fellow teachers and even went to China to present workshops on the Montessori Method.
As a lifetime Montessorian, I utilize the philosophy developed by Dr. Maria Montessori as a guide to how I approach and teach children. Teaching children is my passion! I believe in helping children to always move forward in their abilities and social development.
My focus is 2-fold: developing the skills for academic success & developing independent thinkers with a compassion for others. My emphasis is on positive reinforcements and encouraging children to think for themselves.
I purchased my home in 2023 with the intention of becoming licensed as a Family Childcare Home and to have a Montessori classroom in the heart of my home. Modifications were made to create the perfect space for my program, both indoors and outside!
