Erin Garrett

Toddler Head Teacher

I am an alumna of Acorn Montessori School, and my fond childhood memories combined with my strong belief in the Montessori philosophy, naturally led me to enroll my own child at Acorn at the age of two, continuing throuh the Upper Elementary Program. I feel priveledged to be involved in the earliest stages of a child's development and am continually inspired by how even the youngest of learners demonstrate innate curiosity, determination, and indepdence. In my free time, I enjoy reading, spending time with family and vacationing at the Jersey Shore. " The goal of early childhood education should be to activate the child's own natural desire to learn.-Maria Montessori. This quote motivates me to prepare the toddler environement in an exciting yet peaceful way.
