Why Boreal?
Educative Project
Boreal would like to share with the children´s families a bespoke educative project, fundamentally supported in the Montessori method.
It includes, feeding itself from several respected educative methodologies, every aspect considered beneficial for the physical, emotional, cognitive, or social for its children.
Our educative pillars are:
Love and respect in a pure way
We look forward to guiding your child from a love approach. We believe that the children´s emotional development in this initial educative stage is the core about which their evolution should be developed.
Love and respect to others, to the environment, the nature and the world that surrounds the child as the foundations to develop adequate social skills and empathy.
Also respect to the child´s innate skills, preferences, interests, and priorities as the starting point to carry on our job as guides.
Freedom to achieve autonomy and self-esteem growth
The trust we place in our children, by enabling them freedom to choose the activity most interesting to them, allows for a self-esteemed development.
Allowing for a natural behaviour and being by the children side without steering them generates an autonomy and independence which defines their future.
At Boreal every day progresses with the children´s pace
We accommodate to their rhythm, timing and needs, providing the environment for a natural learning.
They´re the real protagonists of this process..
The professional team working with the children takes care of facilitating their freedom of act and choice needs.
Singularity
Your little one is unique and different. At Boreal we reckon that everyone has its specific intelligence and own creativity.
This is the reason/explains why the learning has to be personalized, adapted to children´s motivations and needs depending on their cognitive, emotional and physical development.
We aim to stress that singularity and exploit to its limit the capabilities/benefits derived from it.
Natural learning
Play constitutes children´s natural learning process during their early years.
As Einstein mentioned: “Games are the most perfectioned research method”; that´s the reason why we facilitate an environment and freedom for a play time where the children preferences prevail.
Through games the children learn mathematical concepts, logic, reasoning, and vocabulary, though also communication, social and emotional management skills.
If your values match ours and you´d be keen for your little one to grow in a family environment full of love and respect, come to meet the Boreal team and discover our space.
Schedule a visitMy history
Hi! I´m Belinda architect of the Boreal project and Head Montessori guide.
Since my time at school, I always wanted to pursue a career in Early Years education, though I initially opted for a different professional path forgetting my real vocation.
My son´s birth refreshed it and I started to question and revisit the traditional teaching methodologies.
Following several years in London studying at MCI (Montessori Centre International), one of the UK´s leading providers of Montessori training in the UK and around the world, I got my Diploma in Montessori Pedagogy- Birth to Seven and I worked as a Montessori teacher at The Gower School an “Outstanding Montessori nursery” (OFSTED). Following my passion and always aiming for the best children care, I am also a Certified Children´s Yoga instructor, Certified Infant Massage Instructor and Early Childhood Teaching Certified person. I came back to Madrid focusing on this exciting project.
I´d like to become an active element in the children´s emotional development, guiding but not steering them and respecting their singularity. .
This is the reason why I´ve created this environment where I stand by the children’s side through their development, in a stimulant environment where they´d be able to learn in a natural way through games and observation.
I´m aware how important is for you to know the teachers who´ll spend with your child quite a few hours along the day. Therefore, I invite you to get to know us personally and enjoy a while our magic space.
