Meet Vanessa
Greenleaf Director and Founder
I was born in Caracas, Venezuela. As a Montessori child myself and then a Montessori teacher, I combined my knowledge and love for Montessori education with my meditation practice and developed the Greenleaf Mindful Montessori approach.

"I like to think of us as gardeners; we work the SOIL: an environment prepared for rich exploration and absorption. We add SEEDS: organized, inviting, challenging, hands-on, developmentally appropriate activities. We provide NUTRIENTS: love, attention, and care. We work with the NATURAL ELEMENTS: your child’s intrinsic ability to bloom. We show up and are present, MINDFUL, as we trust your
child’s ability to grow."
We respect each child’s process and uniqueness and make individualized adjustments by pruning and guiding along the way!"

OUR PROGRAM
Greenleaf Mindful Montessori Preschool provides an individualized learning program catered to the whole child’s developmental needs and intrinsic desire to learn and live in wonder.
Our program is based on the Maria Montessori's scientific method of observation to "follow the Child" and meet them where they are at. We respect each child’s process and uniqueness and make individualized adjustments along the way!
We deeply believe that each child should feel seen, heard, respected, and loved
