Throughout our articles, you will often find us referring to the concept of the "true north" for your child. It's a concept we embrace and love in all aspects of our Montessori journey, but what exactly do we mean by it? Well, in a world filled with distractions and challenges, it can be easy to lose sight of what truly matters for our children's development.

At The Montessori Compass, we're on a mission to help you guide your child towards their "true north"—their unique path towards maximum potential and personal fulfillment. Let's explore the concept of true north and how it relates to our brand and mission statement.
