Hi, my name is Katrina Winter.
I’m a full time volunteer, following my parents’ footsteps in the missionary life. My early childhood memories are of learning with the Montessori Method. Having a handicapped older brother and 4 younger sisters, being the assistant teacher or “second Mom” came quite naturally to me, and I haven’t stopped teaching yet. I must say that my favorite age to care for and teach is infants to toddlers and of course I teach the way I was taught.
Having had years of hands-on experience teaching with the Montessori Method and being a professional childcare educator, I have found an online Montessori Infant/Toddler Diploma Program that I’d like to enroll in - both to ensure that I give my students the best that I can and to be able to say with confidence that I am professional in what I do.

Being full-time volunteers, we do not receive a salary as such but are funded through donations to our work. Henceforth, any gifts or donations that would enable me to obtain my diploma would be more than welcome. The amount I am hoping to raise is $ 2500 which includes the enrollment fee, shipping fees and any additional fees.
