Connecting Montessori Educators and Schools
We are a private staffing agency founded by veteran educators, dedicated to fostering authentic Montessori communities by placing passionate, qualified professionals.
40 Years of Educational Integrity
Montessori Staffing was established by two visionary women who spent their careers dedicated to children. Each partner brings 15 years as a certified Montessori teacher and an additional 25 years in school administration and general education.

"Finding the right educator isn't just about matching a resume; it's about matching a soul to a community's vision. We've lived it for 40 years."
How Our Matching Service Works

The Foundations of Montessori
We champion an educational approach that respects the child as a capable and curious individual, ready to explore the world.
Child-Led Learning
Children are encouraged to choose their own activities based on their interests, fostering independence and a genuine love for learning.
Prepared Environment
The classroom is a carefully curated space with age-appropriate materials, designed to be beautiful, orderly, and accessible.
Mixed-Age Groups
Children of different ages work together, allowing younger children to learn from older peers and older ones to develop leadership skills.
Our Guiding Belief
We believe in helping children develop a deep curiosity for the world and the confidence to explore unknown territories. We help them earn autonomy by encouraging them to build their own path through individual and group-led play and activities.
The Art of the Montessori Fit
To us, Montessori isn't just a method of education; it's a movement for human peace. We believe that the classroom is a sanctuary where the child discovers their true self.
Our search criteria goes beyond credentials. We look for the "unseen" qualities—the spiritual preparation of the teacher and the deep-seated respect for the child's autonomy.
"The teacher’s first duty is to watch over the environment, and this takes precedence over all the rest."
— Dr. Maria Montessori
The Scientific Observer
We look for the ability to watch the child without interference, identifying the exact moment of 'normalization'.
Spiritual Preparation
A Legacy Educator has done the inner work required to serve the child with genuine humility and joy.
The Prepared Adult
Beyond the environment, the teacher is the dynamic link between the child and the work.
Grace & Courtesy
Modeling respect, emotional intelligence, and professional integrity in every interaction.
