" Paddy is our second child to attend Goldilocks Montessori Pre-School. We feel he has received a very 'special' introduction to early education, Josephine provides a holistic approach to preschool education always with the child at the forefront. Paddy enjoyed the natural homely setting benefiting hugely from his interaction with wildlife and in particular he loved following the seasons. His artwork brought home each week was a reflection of the great attention that each child enjoys from Josephine, Therese and Ruth. Positivity and patience are characteristic in all Josephine's interactions with the children. I believe she see's every childs potential and aims to guide them gently to reach it. Maria Montessori's ethos is evident at Goldilocks Montessori. Josephine ensures the children have a strong sense of community through involvement in local events which my child has thoroughly enjoyed."
