Nurturing Independence

Home based Montessori school and child care.

A cozy, well-organized nursery with a green and neutral color palette, featuring a crib, shelves with toys and baskets, a play area with a rug and wooden toys, and large windows with curtains letting in natural light.

What I do

I own and operate Wildlings out of my home here in Brampton, Ontario. We have a dedicated space that we’ve built for the purpose of school and play. I operate independently, unlicensed, and am not affiliated with a 3rd party agency. This allows me to have full control over my process and approach.

I started Wildlings as a way to bring together everything I’ve learned as an educator and as a mother to create a prepared environment for children to grow. My experience comes from my time as an ECE in a Montessori school environment. My goal is to use the Montessori philosophy to create a calm, organized and nurturing space, where each child feels safe to explore, learn, and develop at his/her own pace.

Our Programs

Infant

Our infant program offers a calm, caring space where babies can safely explore and develop early motor and sensory skills. With gentle guidance, freedom to move, and one-on-one care, babies form strong emotional bonds and gain confidence as they discover the world.

Toddler

The toddler years are a time of incredible curiosity sand growing independence. In my toddler program, children are encouraged to explore, and practice new skills in a carefully prepared environment. The Montessori materials I will provide will help develop the toddlers coordination, language concentration and social skills. Through these activities the toddler will gain a sense of responsibility and confidence.

Preschool

My Preschool program focuses on building the foundation children need for future learning. Using Montessori-inspired materials and activities, children are encouraged to think independently, solve problems, and develop a love of learning. I will support early literacy, math exploration practical life skills and social development. Through this the children will learn independence, build confidence and the skills needed to transition into school.

Your Questions, Answered

How do you tailor programs to each child?

We start with a detailed consultation to observation to learn each child’s needs. Then we design experiences that build strengths and target new skills.

Can we visit before making a decision?

Of course. We’ll schedule a tour, meet the families, and observe the space so you can feel confident in the environment we provide.

Do you offer invoice-based billing?

Yes. I’ll be using the Lillio app to manage all of our communication, including payments. Following enrollment and service selection, you’ll receive a detailed invoice outlining the schedule and associated fees.

Growth starts here.

We start with a no obligation first meeting. Trusting someone with your child is an incredibly personal thing and I want to make sure we’re a good fit. It’s a two way interview.

Start with the form here and I’ll reach out to arrange a chat, right here at the house. I’ll do my best to provide you with everything you need to make an informed decision.
