Mi Jardín Montessori
A Montessori home environment for children aged 1 to 3 in Benalmádena, Málaga.
Welcome to Mi Jardín Montessori,
A calm and prepared home where childhood can unfold at its own pace.
Mi Jardín Montessori is a small Montessori home environment in Benalmádena, Málaga, for children from 1 to 3 years old.
I offer a warm, respectful and carefully prepared environment where children can move freely, explore, build independence and develop through meaningful everyday experiences.
Each child is accompanied with respect for their individual rhythm, needs and interests.
Our Montessori Environment
Freedom and Independence
Every element has been intentionally selected to encourage independence, concentration, movement and exploration.
Exploration and play
Children have access to a private outdoor garden where they can explore nature, care for plants and enjoy open-ended play.
Respectful accompaniment
The small group allows me to know each child closely and accompany their development with presence and respect.
Security and discovery
Our days follow a calm and predictable rhythm that gives children a sense of security while allowing plenty of time for uninterrupted exploration, play and discovery.
Our Space
A home designed for young children.
The indoor environment has been specifically prepared for children, with Montessori materials and activities adapted to their developmental stage.
The outdoor area offers space for movement, nature exploration, gardening, sensory experiences and free play.
Materials are carefully selected and regularly rotated according to the children's interests and developmental needs.

About Me
I am María, founder and Montessori guide at Mi Jardín Montessori.
I am a Social Educator, Pedagogue and Montessori guide specialised in the 0–3 stage. I also have international training in Early Childhood Education and Care, completed in Brisbane, Australia.
My approach is based on respect, observation and trust in each child's natural development.
I believe that the first years of life deserve time, connection and an environment that allows children to become increasingly independent.
Learning Through Everyday Life
Our days include practical life activities, sensory exploration, language, movement, art, music, nature and free exploration.
Children are invited to participate in meaningful experiences such as preparing food, caring for plants, tidying their environment, exploring natural materials and discovering the world around them.
We also welcome a professional musician for special music sessions adapted to the youngest children. These sessions give children the opportunity to listen, explore instruments, sing and enjoy music together in a relaxed and engaging environment.
