PARENTING COURSE

Hi, I’m Didi

I’m a psychologist, conscious parenting educator, and founder of My Montessori School in London. Over the past decade, I’ve supported hundreds of families through my school, parenting platform on Youtube and baby feeding programme psychology background, and a YouTube channel that’s reached over 14,000 subscribers — always with one goal: to make parenting feel more grounded, conscious, and doable.This new course distills everything I’ve learned and provides a calm, clear path for parenting your 2 to 6 year-old with confidence.

Montessori Foundations for Conscious Parenting

A practical course for parents of 2–6-year-olds
Created by psychologist and My Montessori School founder Didi Aurelia

What if parenting felt calmer?

Parenting a 2–6 year old can feel like a beautiful storm.

It is full of wonder, but also filled with meltdowns, mess, and self-doubt.

You want to raise your child with intention, but the books, blogs, and Instagram tips feel overwhelming. It feels like others have figured it out, but not you.
You crave a calm, confident rhythm at home, and yet you’re not sure where to begin.

This course is your foundation.

What You’ll Learn

In this 3-hour course, I’ll guide you through the foundations of conscious parenting, including:

The principles of Montessori at home — simplified for real life

How to create calm, connected routines and rhythms

Supporting your child’s independence (without losing your mind)

Handling emotions and boundaries with clarity and compassion

How to speak and lead in a way that builds trust instead of tension

This is the course I wish I had when I became a parent.

Who Is This For

  • You are raising a child 2-6y old

  • You want to bring more calm, clarity, and connection into daily life

    • You’re Montessori curious or simply looking for a more conscious way

    • You’re overwhelmed by the noise and want grounded, practical tools

    • You’re ready to lead with more confidence — even when things feel messy

    • You’re open to doing things differently, with more intention and heart

Why I Create This

Because parenting doesn’t come with a manual — and yet we meant to navigate it with grace, patience, and perfect instincts.

Over the years, through my work with parents, I’ve been asked the same questions again and again:

“How can I bring this into my home?”

“What’s a simple way to start?”

“I don’t have hours to study — is there a shortcut that actually works?”

This course is my answer.

It’s designed to make your life easier, and not add more to your plate. It’s practical, clear, and grounded in what I’ve seen truly support children’s independence, emotional well-being, and joyful connection at home.

This course will give you a solid foundation that brings more ease, confidence, and clarity to your parenting.

Before creating this course, I founded and ran My Montessori School in London for seven years. Our school supported hundreds of families with a conscious, individualised approach rooted in the Montessori principles, growth mindset and deep respect to the child’s journey.

Ready to bring more calm, confidence, and connection into your parenting?

This practical course will help you feel more grounded and supported at home.

You’ll receive clear guidance, support, and resources to make your home feel calmer, more connected, and more aligned with your values.

Price is £55, because great parenting support should be accessible, not overwhelming.

What You'll Receive

  • A 3-hour course (delivered live or via recording, launching November)

  • Downloadable tools & parent friendly sheets to use at home

  • Lifetime access to the recorded version

    BONUS: The first 5 parents to sign up get a private 1:1 session (45 mins) with me — tailored to your child and your home life

    That’s the full course PLUS a private session — for the cost of a family meal out.

Course will be available from mid-November.

Note: If fewer than 25 people join, I’ll deliver this round as an intimate live Zoom session, with real-time support and direct conversation. All participants will receive access to the full content and a replay regardless.

You don’t have to figure this out alone.

The child is both a hope and a promise for mankind.”

    FROM PARENTS

    ““Didi is one of the very few people who truly understand and embody the values and principles of Montessori and apply them in a way that creates independent, confident and happy children. My younger daughter attended Didi's Montessori nursery school and it has been by far the best I have seen. The warm nurturing atmosphere where the children are truly at the center and every decision, even the smallest ones, were made from that perspective. Didi has guided me numerous times when I have been triggered and wondered how to react from a truly child-centered perspective and yet create the boundaries that are needed. This course is unique in the perspectives and practical approaches to the challenges we face as parents every day.”

    FROM PARENTS

    My daughter Alexa attended My Montessori School, and I can truly say it was the best care she could have ever received. The teachers were so attentive, kind, and genuinely loving - you could feel how much they cared about each child as an individual. What stood out most to me was how beautifully Montessori principles were honored in practice: children were given the space to explore, express themselves, and develop independence in such a nurturing environment. It felt like a second home, and I am forever grateful for the foundation it gave Alexa - both academically and emotionally.”

    FROM PARENTS

    My Montessori stood out from all other nurseries right from the start; we knew from the moment we stepped in that this would be a welcoming, caring, nurturing and stimulating environment for our twin boys. Didi and her outstanding teaching team have been wonderfully engaged at every step of their nursery journey: making sure that both children and parents have the necessary support during the settling-in process, encouraging our boys to explore their new environment and activities whilst providing seamless communication through regular observations and updates. Importantly to us, My Montessori has been amazing in encouraging the twins in developing their own individual personalities and skill-sets and beginning to gain their own confidence and independence.  We couldn't recommend My Montessori family highly enough- a big thank you to the team!

    FROM PARENTS

    “My daughter spent two fantastic years in Didi’s Montessori nursery. Equipped to the highest standards , calm and purposeful , with lots of light and a room with different zones for various activities encouraging curiosity and independence. A separate appreciation goes to the staff and the care with which Didi chose every single teacher; they were all very professional and what stood out the most was the way they connected with the children—patiently, respectfully, and with genuine warmth. The Montessori experience gave my daughter confidence, independence, and a genuine love for learning. I couldn’t imagine a better foundation and wish Didi and her team all the very best in her future projects, which I am sure will be a success.”

    FROM EDUCATORS WHO WORKED WITH DIDI

    “"Working with Didi was a grounding and empowering experience. She truly believed in the Montessori vision and the core principles. She believed in the teachers and provided them a safe place to deliver on their expertise. I saw children deeply focused and engrossed, allowed the freedom to explore at their own pace all areas of the Montessori curriculum. I witnessed remarkable progress with children who were struggling to concentrate or who had special needs. Within 6 months, they had improved significantly. The daily observations, the positive response from parents and feedback from other teachers was deeply encouraging."

    FROM EDUCATORS WHO WORKED WITH DIDI

    “Working at My Montessori School under Didi's leadership was a truly beautiful experience — a rare blend of professional growth and heartfelt care. I watched children begin to read, write, and fall in love with learning — but even more inspiring was their independence, critical thinking, and joy. Parents were delighted to see their children's progress and many were inspired to bring Montessori practices into their homes. The staff listened carefully, offered thoughtful advice, and followed up to reflect on how things were going. This partnership created a real sense of trust and collaboration, which made a lasting difference for both children and their families."
