Meet Anniebelle Vergel de Dios
Anniebelle Vergel de Dios is a Sydney-based Montessori educator who has dedicated over nineteen years to working with children from birth to age three — and, just as importantly, with the adults who raise them. Originally from the Philippines, where she experienced a very standardized approach to education, she discovered Montessori as a young teacher and has since built her entire career around it. Today, she runs Montessori classes through Little Hands at Work from classrooms in Manly and Forestville, and has collaborated with families, educators, and schools across Australia, New Zealand, and Asia, including offering parent-infant/toddler classes to support early childhood development.
