ÊTRE & DEVENIR

International Montessori School

We promote self-confidence, autonomy,
and well-being.

Last Open House – Sunday, June 22nd from 10 AM to 1 PM

The ideal opportunity to visit our premises, discover our educational environment, and discuss the specific needs of your child. Open House is also an essential step for upcoming registrations. We will be delighted to welcome you and answer all your questions!

We created this school because we believe that every child has their own potential, which just needs to grow and flourish. Like a seed developing.

Because for us, nurturing their curiosity, their development, and their self-confidence, while developing fundamental intellectual, emotional, and social learning should be a given.

Students’ parents talk about us

Our school is starting its first year, but our team already includes members with extensive experience. Here is what parents say:

“Obviously”! Florence Plaetevoet is an extraordinary educator, absolutely exceptional. She followed my daughter in a Montessori school until she was 4 years old. Regardless of the situations, she always maintained an incredible and inexhaustible smile, energy, and kindness. Her patience and kindness towards the children are impressive. While being firm, she ensures the well-being of the children. All this with individual attention for each child and each parent, with great respect and care for the relationship. I highly recommend Florence, whom even after 6 years my daughter remembers fondly and warmly. Among parents, we even refer to her as “Wonderwoman”. Thank you, Florence!

Olivia

(Erell’s mom)

A wonderful teacher who made preschool a real joy! We are so incredibly grateful for Florence and the impact she has had on our child’s preschool experience. From the very first day, her warm smile and open-hearted approach made the transition so smooth, not just for our child but for us as parents, too. Her kindness, patience, and genuine love for all the children are truly special. She creates an environment where children feel safe, valued, and excited to learn. Thanks to her, our child looked forward to going to preschool every day, and we couldn’t have asked for a better start to their educational journey. Thank you, Florence, for your dedication, your positivity, and the love you pour into your classroom. You have made such a difference in our child’s life, and we appreciate you more than words can express!

Lacramioara and Eugène

(Ian’s parents)

We would like to warmly thank Florence and Angelika for their kind support throughout our son Liam’s preschool years. Florence, always smiling and delighted to see the children, created a climate of trust from the very first day. Liam never left her side! She is attentive to the children’s development, reassures parents, and communicates professionally about progress and areas of attention. Angelika, on the other hand, gently and discreetly gained Liam’s trust. Her listening, patience, and smile were precious in his development. Thanks to their complementary work, Liam grew in confidence and has wonderful memories of his preschool years. He still talks about them affectionately! We are infinitely grateful for their commitment and kindness. Thank you for these wonderful years!

Deborah

(Liam’s mom)

A golden teacher, adored by children and parents alike. She is kind and warm, attentive to children and parents, very pedagogical, and full of ideas to renew her workshops.

Alexandra

(Samuel’s mom)

Florence was a patient and kind educator. She accompanied my daughter in her schooling from ages 3 to 5, combining gentleness and respect. The Montessori approach allowed my child to develop at her own pace with fluidity, while following the expected learning framework at the end of the cycle.

Laetitia

(Lise’s mom)

My little girl Léna spent 2 years in a Montessori class with Florence and Angelika (at ages 4 and 5). It was an incredible experience for her where she was able to develop her full potential, autonomy, and good self-confidence while caring for others. The supervision was top-notch, and she was able to start learning English with great ease. We are truly delighted with this school and highly recommend it!

Anaïs

(Léna’s mom)

Florence was our son’s teacher throughout his preschool years. She is kind, always attentive to the child and their family. Our son quickly felt confident with her.

Stéphanie and Cyril

(Martin’s parents)

My two daughters were able to follow Montessori teaching with a kind and attentive team, of which Florence was a part. Thank you.

Tiphaine

(Mila and Emy’s mom)

Florence is an educator attentive to the needs of children and communicates with a soft and maternal voice with her students; the bond she establishes is both friendly and professional. She must possess some magical powers because the children listen to her and show their best side. Our children have made enormous progress in their learning and education. They learn to do things by themselves, manage their space and time. We entrust our children to her with great confidence, knowing that we will find them happy: they grow and learn joyfully at their own pace.

Roberto and Aurora

(Rossella and Barbara’s parents)

Florence was my son’s teacher in preschool for two years. She is the favorite teacher of all the children, very kind, smiling, and always positive. She encourages children with clear rules. That is why today my son wants to continue taking private French lessons with her. For parents, exchanges and communications are always easy and respectful. Excellent teacher with great experience, and I recommend her!

Rui

(Yichen’s mom)

Florence and Angelika accompanied our son through his preschool years. Together, they are a dedicated and passionate team that fosters a positive learning environment. Our child grew, built himself, and gained autonomy and skills thanks to this climate of listening, patience, and kindness. Thank you for these wonderful years that made all the difference. He was happy and thrived with both of you. Today in primary school, he is a child who likes to do things by himself, is creative and curious, knows how to share, and seeks solutions to difficulties. A good start to his school life.
