About Us

Hello

My name is Jodi Someshwar

Jodi Someshwar is a management graduate from University of Texas at Dallas. She has held responsible positions at Texas Instruments, Digital Equipment Corporation, Radiant Corporation and the Texas Rehabilitation Commission. Her undergraduate education is in child Psychology and she worked with children at the University of Texas, Austin in 1974. She became interested in Montessori child development curriculum after seeing her grandchildren go to local child care centers. She became associated with Preston Park Montessori and Preston Creek Montessori in Plano Texas. After reviewing their program and spending some time with them, Jodi decided to start a Montessori school here in Austin with the help of associates in Plano and in Austin. Her goal is to create a ‘first in class’ child development center using Montessori methods. She is a candidate for the Montessori Primary Diploma from Collins College this July 2014.

Our Team and our Commitment.

We believe:

A spirit of cooperation rather than competition is the most conductive environment for learning.
- Success builds confidence.
  Children learn best in an environment of love, security, understanding and consistency.
- Children should be respected and taught to respected others and the materials around them.
- Learning should be a happy and joyous experience!
- Teachers should encourage children to do their best and not the minimum. They will also encourage a strong and positive self-image to each and every child.
- The child’s spirit in all aspects is our first priority.
