My name is Victoria and I have been a lead guide of the infant program at Villa for 15 years. Prior to becoming the lead guide, I worked as an assistant in the Montessori infant and toddler classrooms for a little over 7 years. I conducted part of my Montessori training in NY and part of it here in AZ. I have a daughter, Anabella, who completed her school time at Villa and had attended since toddler age and is now in high school at Camelback Montessori College Prep. I also have a 7-year-old who started at Villa as an infant and is now in 2nd grade. In my free time I love spending it with my family doing outdoorsy things such as camping or being creek side.


Mission Statement:
The infant program at Villa Montessori seeks to be a safe, comfortable and nurturing environment for the young child. A home-away-from-home where independence is encouraged, guidance is readily available and respect for the individual development is foremost. We acknowledge the family as the most important people in an infant's life and therefore strive to work together with parents for the good of the developing child. We consider our highest work to be for peace and humanity, one child at a time.
