If you're deep in the baby stage (scrolling at 2am, wondering if you're doing this "Montessori thing" right), this video is for you. I'm sharing five powerful shifts I wish I'd made earlier with my firstborn. No toy shelf rotations or perfection required.

You’ll learn how to:
• Stop overstimulating your baby without realising it
• Support your baby’s natural focus and attention
• Observe instead of engage (and what that really looks like)
• Move from “fixing” to “holding space”
• Create a peaceful rhythm that actually supports your child—and you
• Understand why you are the prepared environment
