Two people write almost everything on this site. Neither is a certified Montessori teacher. Here is what each of them actually brings to it.
Sophia Carter, Founder
Sophia started Montessori Theory while building a Montessori-inspired home for her own two children, one shelf and one mistake at a time. She is not a certified Montessori teacher. She read the theory, tried to apply all of it at once, and slowly learned which parts actually survive a real week with real kids.
She writes most of the setup guides and product reviews, usually starting from something that did not go the way she expected the first time she tried it at home.
Emily Johnson
Emily came to Montessori after her first picture-perfect shelf lasted about four days before her toddler took it apart. She is not a Montessori instructor. She writes from that same place: genuinely invested, willing to admit what did not work, and more interested in what holds up at home than in what looks good in one photo.
She focuses on the pieces that compare what the theory promises with what a single family can realistically do.
