1-1 CONSULTATION

Through my 1-1 sessions, I can help you implement a more nurturing, gentle and conscious approach to parenting. Bearing in mind that each one of us is unique, my customised sessions will enable you to implement strategies specifically designed to suit your child and you.

Hi, I am Amal

A Montessorian at heart and a mama to my beautiful baby boy. 

I have been extremely lucky to have worked with children in informal and formal settings for over two decades across Mumbai, Shanghai and London simultaneously accruing a wealth of knowledge through various Certifications, Diplomas and Masters specialising in Montessori and Early Childhood Education.

In my decade long venture as a Montessori Guide, I learnt something very crucial - Although it takes a village to raise a child, not every parent has one. I, therefore, hold a deep desire to be a part (however small) of that village for parents.

A few years ago, I read a very interesting quote by author and poet Ijeoma Umebinyuo which further cemented my purpose.

"So many broken children living in grown bodies mimicking adult lives."

It is only through mindfulness, compassion, and love for ourselves that we can nourish and nurture the sanctity of the very sacred parent-child relationship.

So here I am, holding your hand and walking you through this journey of overcoming obstacles, rediscovering yourself, cherishing a harmonious relationship with your child, and helping you find the ever-beautiful glimmers of parenting joys in your daily life that will go on to build memories for a lifetime!

Together we nurture - one child, one parent, one family at a time. Because, as Dr. Maria Montessori pointed out, 'Of all things love is the most potent.”

Clients’ Love

  • Hara

    Yes it takes a village to raise a child and you want Amal to be part of your village!!! Our daughter Ella is 14 years old and she has become an independent, open minded yet a very caring and kind person. 12 years ago, Ella had the incredible chance of being nurtured during 3 years by Amal at the Montessori School in Shanghai. Amal offered Ella and our family an incredible start in her school/social life, supporting her and us with endless love and tools to acquire the fundamentals of a kind, empathic, flexible and independent person. Amal has undoubtedly been a key person for our family and proof of that is our long-lasting relationship that has survived time and distance. Amal’s special fingerprint will forever enlighten your parenthood journey!

  • Magda

    “Working with Amal has helped me tremendously to understand my child's stubborn behaviour and brought harmony into our daily life. She has also helped me better navigate my feelings and manage my emotions towards expectations versus reality in busy parent life. Her empathy, friendly and kind attitude and rich experience make her a gem in parent mentoring!”

  • Brenda

    “Amal has given invaluable support to our family. She has helped us navigate sibling rivalry, she has reassured us and guided us in understanding our children’s development and their needs when parenting was truly feeling overwhelming. She has a deep understanding of Montessori and her long experience as a teacher really shows in the flair and confidence with which she approaches the children. Her intervention was crucial in helping our girls develop emotional regulation skills and confidence, which really unlocked their learning potential. Amal is a truly special person, who can instantly connect with both parents and children. Her calm, mindful and positive attitude is truly contagious."

  • Iris

    “We are deeply thankful to Amal. She has had a positive and profound impact on our life. She helped us through a period of grief, planning a family road map for our child to navigate speech problems related to emotions. As first time parents of a 3 year old, we were in need of guidance. She offered the support and knowledge we desperately needed. It is a pleasure to meet Amal. Her calm approach, her deep knowledge of early years, and her passion and love for her job and children is inspiring for us”
