About Us

Welcome to our website! We are Be Montessori, and we're excited to introduce ourselves, our values, and the team dedicated to our mission. Our primary objective is to foster collaboration among families, preschools, and schools, facilitating their mutual growth.

The Be Montessori Project was born from a deep desire to provide guides and parents with inspiring educational programs centered on integrating Montessori principles into daily life. From the kitchen to the living room, bathroom, nursery, and school, we cater to those commencing Montessori from their children's birth, or ideally even during pregnancy. We also support families adopting Montessori principles later on and educators embarking on or enhancing their Montessori journey.

Our Courses

Through our courses and thematic workshops, we aim to provide 'aha' moments where you'll uncover the depth, interconnectedness, beauty, and logic of this unique educational system. We evaluate the needs of today's children for their future lives, emphasizing the development of their individuality, potential, healthy self-esteem, and community engagement.

We recognize the significance of beginnings and prioritize prevention over managing consequences. Our focus is on delivering practical and essential information for launching new nurseries, schools, or clubs.

We strive to elevate the standards of existing Montessori preschool and schools, ensuring children receive a holistic education that aligns with their needs and maximizes the potential of their human spirit.

Our goal is to instill a lifelong curiosity and passion for learning in children. We believe our project will significantly impact families seeking a modern 21st-century education for their children, catalyzing educational change.

Co-founder and Trainer


Hello, I'm Dita Dlouha, co-founder, and Montessori trainer with over 20 years of experience across various AMI training levels. Additionally, I've undergone Montessori therapy training with Lore Anderlik. I've guided children in Montessori nurseries, preschools, and schools. Organized visits to Montessori institutions across Europe, and authored publications on Montessori education. My focus has been on fostering Montessori guides' development and leading a National Montessori Education Organization. Transitioning from this, I embarked on creating my own educational program, equipped with the knowledge to implement it both at home and in educational settings.
