Gather Montessori

When children spend time in nature from a young age, they begin to build a relationship with the natural world. Not just learning about nature, but learning to notice it, care for it, and feel a sense of belonging within it.

A child who knows where the frogs hide, recognizes the first signs of spring, collects fallen leaves, watches a seed become a plant, or simply feels the wind on their face is developing a connection that can stay with them for life.

This is at the heart of our Sunday Nature Play group. These sessions invite young children and their parents to slow down, explore, wonder, get messy, and build their own relationship with the natural world through hands-on, child-led experiences.

Details:
🌿 Ages 2–5
🌿 Sundays, 9:30–11:00 AM
🌿 September 20–November 1

We believe no one should have to parent alone. Our Gather Affiliate parent-child classes ensure this important work expands beyond the Dundas area, reaching families across Ontario. We support and train facilitators to offer these classes in their own communities. Each program operates independently from Gather Montessori, allowing facilitators the flexibility to adapt classes to best meet the unique needs of local families.

The structure remains consistent: a welcoming space where parents can build community over 6 to 8 sessions, with a facilitator present to support them wherever they are on their parenting journey. Find a class near you: www.gathermontessori.com

This weekend we wrapped up our 2026 Parent-Child Class Facilitator Training. We loved spending the weekend together in connection and collaboration. It was amazing to see these new facilitators begin their journey into supporting parents and children. As we said many times over the course of the weekend - dream big!! There are so many different ways to do this very important work and we are here to support you. If you want to join our 2027 course happening next April email us at [email protected]
