Starting a Montessori House of Children

When I decided that I will start my own House of Children in 2013, I knew how I wanted it to be; but reality is different. When I launched Ayelet few weeks back, I realized that I have achieved what I wanted to, not exactly but close to what I wanted. The realization didn’t sink in completely and I got busy with ‘spreading around the word’, that is the toughest part of the journey till date.

As I wait for those parent tours and registrations, I still know,soon, this place will be buzzing with little ones.




What I set out to create?
I set out to create a ‘Montessori House of Children’ in the true sense of the word. A warm space where each child gets a respectful, nurturing, joyful, creative, safe, exciting and inspiring environment. 

When I meet some parents who do not have any knowledge about Montessori education, I try to show them the various aspects of Montessori education, which make the method so beautiful. It isn’t an easy task, but it is challenging. Then I meet parents who have done their research and they are equally interesting as well.

There are parents who get shocked when they do not see the normal pre-school material, the pretend play toys etc. To them I say, look whether your child will get freedom and independence, will he find a safe and nurturing environment.


I know we at Ayelet have created a stimulating environment for the child underpinned by the Montessori method. With all premium Montessori material and trained adults. Our admissions are going on now, as a new school all we can do is to reach out to parents and show them how we are willing to touch the lives of their precious little ones. If you are looking for an authentic Montessori Environment, do visit Ayelet.






We are located in a beautiful little  space, in BTM 2nd Stage, MICO Layout, Bengaluru. We follow the Montessori approach, at Ayelet Montessori, we know each child is unique, and we should help the children, help themselves. It is your perfect little Montessori around the Corner.

Celebrations and Festivals in Montessori

Ours is a land of diversity and that is the beauty of our country. The harmony and love with which a large part of our society lives, embracing all the uniqueness and differences is what makes India truly amazing. We have so many customs, festivals and rituals in our country. We should should help our child be a part of these celebrations.  Montessori is a method which is extremely adaptable and embraces all rituals.  In a Montessori, festivals and holidays form an integral part of our cultural curriculum. For us, festivals are cultural celebrations and not religious. Children focus on traditions and rituals while celebrating. When we celebrate a festival, its about the customs, the clothes and the traditional food. As a Montessori school, Ayelet believes in celebrating all holidays with equal enthusiasm. We try to avoid accepting one and ignoring another important festival. All festivals hold equal importance for us.  We share stories and ev...

Not Mere Words... But Experiences!

Montessori learning is unmatched because children are empowered to explore at their own pace, follow their natural curiosity, and build deep, lasting understanding through hands-on experiences in a thoughtfully prepared environment.   Introducing language to young children at the right time and in the right way can truly shape their entire learning journey. In the Montessori approach, nothing is random — every lesson, material, and experience is carefully thought out to support the child’s natural development. And yes, we mean materials — not toys. Each one is a gift from Dr. Maria Montessori herself, designed after years of observing how children actually learn best. One such gem is the Large Moveable Alphabet . It’s a beautiful, hands-on material that does so much — from building phonemic awareness to strengthening early writing skills, spelling, and even confidence. Here's something we often say in Montessori: writing comes before reading . And the Large Moveable Alphabet...

🚨 Why authenticity in Montessori education is important

 If you are a parent of a young child and exploring preschools in Bengaluru, you will notice many schools claiming to be Montessori. But here’s the truth: calling yourself a Montessori school and being an authentic Montessori environment are two very different things. Unfortunately, many preschools use the Montessori label as a marketing strategy. But a visit to the classroom often reveals something else: Substandard or imitation Montessori materials Locked shelves with limited child access Untrained teachers directing instead of guiding A lack of observation and individualized learning Traditional practices like punishments and rewards When a school is not Montessori, these practices may simply reflect its chosen method. But when a school claims to be Montessori while not following the philosophy, it becomes a serious concern. 🚨 Why authenticity in Montessori education is important because Montessori is more than materials or mixed-age classrooms—it is a philosophy of respect, in...
