Where we make Montessori modern

Modernizing the approach to matching candidates to positions within Montessori schools helps us to ensure that we are uplifting the most important parts of the work, which is the children. Those best suited to do the great work in Montessori environments are those who are ready to serve all children, seek to continuously grow and are ready to work and live in community. Montessori Makers believes that when we invest in doing this work well, we are working toward peace.  

We also do Executive Matchmaking

Executive matchmaking is the process of connecting schools with highly qualified leaders who align with their mission, values, and vision. It goes beyond traditional hiring by focusing on cultural fit, leadership philosophy, and long-term impact to ensure a successful partnership.
