Star Path Montessori is here for you. The "Illuminate" program is designed to get you started in the best way possible.

"Illuminate" is structured as a 10 topic program of top principles, each being presented through 2 pre-recorded 15 minute videos. The videos are to be offered to your implementing team: you as a parent, other family members, nannies, babysitters and anyone else who will be interacting with your child(ren) and the Montessori-at-Home space while navigating the daily routine that transpires in the home. These videos are meant to be viewed in progression, at your desired pace, processing, practicing and re-watching as needed to gain more illumination into what this program, along with "The Star", will provide for your child and your family as a whole.
