A.R.T. is a form of breathing and
relaxation to help prepare a mother
for childbirth. This was developed by
tow Italian doctors Dr. Umberto
Piscicelli and Dr. Silvana Montanaro.
Dr. Montanaro was one of the first
Montessori trainers for ages 0-3 along
with being the author of

‘Understanding the Human Being’
which is an excellent guide to
parenting.
This course meets for two hours every
week for eight weeks. The first hour
includes the breathing and relaxation
exercises and the second hour will be
filled with lots of information about
child development.

I truly enjoy working with and learning about children and just
human development in general. I received my A.R.T. training through
my Montessori Trainer.
Working with children over the years I have really found a
particular joy in working with parents and watching them learn and understand their children. I
have work with children and parent not only hear in Chicago but in Morocco and the Netherlands.
I am providing my expertise though the classes I offer. I look forward to
meeting new people and would like the opportunity to enrich the lives of
those I meet.
