26) Montessori at Home with Simone Davies: Author of The Montessori Toddler

How do we move past the clutter and foster true independence in our children? In this episode of Dam Parenting, we celebrate Montessori Week with the world-renowned Simone Davies. As the author of The Montessori Toddler and The Montessori Baby, Simone joins Maren and Eva to discuss her newest release, The Montessori Child.

We take a warm, honest, and direct look at the Montessori philosophy beyond the aesthetic—focusing on the mindset that empowers children from infancy through the school years. Simone shares practical advice on setting up your home to nurture growth, including her famous IKEA picks for Montessori families. Whether you’ve attended her Jacaranda Tree classes in Amsterdam or are just discovering the "follow the child" approach, this conversation offers the timeless wisdom you need to support your child’s development with confidence.
