A place where children feel safe, seen, and ready to grow

Nurturing Curiosity, Growing Independence, Belonging Together


Small, nature-inspired Montessori program for children ages 3–6

Opening August 2026 in Boise, Idaho

A Calm and Intentional Beginning

At Aurora River Montessori, we believe meaningful learning begins with something deeper - a child’s sense of safety, belonging, and connection.

Our classroom is intentionally designed to feel calm, welcoming, and home-like, where children are given the time and space to settle, explore, and grow in confidence.

Our Approach

Nurturing Curiosity

Children are guided to explore, question, and engage with meaningful, hands-on work at their own pace.

Growing Independence

The environment supports confidence, responsibility, and the development of real-life skills.

Belonging Together

Each child is known, supported, and part of a respectful classroom community.

Meet Your Guide

Hi, I’m Amanda—founder and lead Montessori teacher of Aurora River Montessori.

With over 10 years of Montessori classroom experience, a Master’s degree in Education and Leadership, and a Primary Montessori certification, I’ve spent my career supporting children in becoming confident, capable, and independent.

I believe children thrive when they feel safe, respected, and given the time and space to grow.

Aurora River Montessori is something I’ve built intentionally—to create the kind of environment I know children truly thrive in.
