Ms. Manu as we well know her, was born and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina. 

As a Family, they moved to the US in 2017 because my Husband was relocated to Atlanta. 

Manu obtained her phycology  degree in April 2005, in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

She worked as a Psychologist and as a therapist in hospitals, private consultants, school environments, training teachers and giving workshops for teenagers. 

Her  journey with Montessori Philosophy began in 2007 when she became a mom for the first time. While researching for positive discipline and all themes related to respectful parenting, she met Maria Montessori. A lady who talked about following the child, being respectful, observing them…. and I felt that everything matched perfectly with all that she already knew and wanted. 

She has been doing Montessori at home for so many years almost without knowing it!

Years later, the possibility of working in a Montessori school knocked at her door. After

experiencing it from the inside, she decided to become a -I’m an AMS Infant-Toddler certified Guide because she felt it was 100% her passion. When younger, she use to hosted children parties and worked as a babysitter at night.

As a therapist, she focused on preventing mental disorders in children, and now, as a teacher, she is dedicated to accompanying them in their development, guiding them in their learning process, and helping them discover the world around them.

she admire the capacity of children for wonder, their resilience and empathy, and the enthusiasm with which they undertake each activity that is presented to them.

Children are a song to life; nourishing myself with that vitality is a gift that life gives me.

I learn from them constantly; their capacity for forgiveness and unconditional love, their

innocence, and at the same time the energy they put in every day to improve themselves and achieve their goals is something that I love and respect.

The bond you make with them as a teacher is unique and special.

What she  like most about the Montessori philosophy is the “pause.” It is giving children the time and space so they can grow and develop at their own pace. Slowly but surely. It is offering them the tools so that they can discover the world around them and with this, find their interests and develop their virtues and abilities to the maximum.

We live in an increasingly hurried, competitive, and challenging world. Giving children a space where they learn, investigate, explore, observe, ask, and draw conclusions based on their personal experience will help them develop their self-esteem and self-confidence, which is the basis of success.

she has been married  to her husband since 2005  and have three sons Benjamin, Matias and Joaquin. SheI currently live in Windward, Alpharetta.

She enjoys cooking. She is always looking to create a new recipe. At home we don’t do deliveries; we always eat homemade food, and most of the time it is Argentinian food.

I love to sing and dance. As a child, I took jazz dance classes for over 8 years and used to participate in competitions. As an adult, I enjoy going to Zumba to work out.
