The Montessori School of Silicon Valley is opening its new Cantera location in Georgetown TX. We are proud to bring our Montessori programs to new families. This new location offers an exclusively authentic Montessori education to children ages 0-6 years old. Nestled in an idyllic location, we look forward to helping children here thrive in their full potential.
As the very first members of our new school community, Cantera Families will be those who:
Head of School
Ms. Milinh joined Montessori School of Silicon Valley as Head of School at our Calaveras location. After spending four years there, she transitioned into the role of Head of School at our Cabrillo location in 2016. And now after almost 9 years with MSOSV we are so excited that she will be helping us start our newest Cantera Montessori location in Georgetown, Texas as Head of School!
Her passion for working with children started from a very early age, propelling her into a career and lifestyle dedicated to putting children first.
In 2003, Ms. Milinh began working with children. Her career began with ages ranging from infancy through Kindergarten and with developmental abilities ranging from typically developing to special needs. She gained varied experience from teaching in child care centers to working as an ABA therapist in clinic settings.
Her credentials include a Master’s degree in Montessori Education, a Bachelor’s degree reflecting special and early childhood education and a American Montessori Society (AMS) credential in Primary Education.
As both a Head of School and a mother of a child who attended Montessori school, she believes in the Montessori philosophy wholeheartedly. She believes the Montessori Method is more than just an approach to learning academics; it is the way of developing the child as a whole, building their independence and confidence to thrive in society.
Her favorite part is being the observer to their journey, she loves watching the children have their “Ah-Ha!” moments when they figure out something that is meaningful to them, whether it be resolving how to handle a spill or how to figure out a really tricky multiplication problem.
Ms. Milinh’s passion for teaching Montessori stemmed from the philosophy, but it is the love as a mother that affirms it is truly an education for life.
During her free time you can find her strolling through farmers’ markets, attending live concerts or musicals, star gazing, running, and if you’re lucky you might hear Ms. Milinh and her son belting out some car-eoke on their weekend drive.
