Nido
"The feeling we should have towards a new-born baby is not the compassion we have for the sick or weak, but reverence before the mystery of creation, the secret of an infinite taking bounded form"

Ms. Kasey - Nido 1 Assistant GuideHello! My name is Kasey Cass, and I’m really excited to be at Centennial Montessori! I have worked at Centennial Montessori both as a primary assistant teacher and now an assistant teacher in the nido community. I love the infant room and seeing the babies hit all of their milestones! In my free time, I love being outdoors and running marathons.

Ms. Martha - Nido 1 Assistant GuideI am super excited to be a part of the Centennial Montessori team! I am certified with Montessori Fundamentals through Center for Guided Montessori Studies and am currently studying to receive my Child Development Associate (CDA). I have a Bachelor’s degree in Social Communication and have been in an educational position since 2014 as a Spanish Teacher in different countries as well as a Montessori Spanish Teacher for one year.
I came to the United States in 2017 from Singapore and am originally from Bogota, Colombia. Since I have moved to Colorado, I have loved it here! My son attends college in Colombia. My Montessori experience has changed my life for the better. It is wonderful to be a part of early childhood education. Maria Montessori said that “The first task of education is to shake up life but to leave it free to develop.” |

I moved to Colorado with my husband and two dogs in 2016 from Chicago, IL, and have been loving Colorado ever since. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Music Therapy from Western Illinois University, and have experience working with children from ages 6 weeks to 18 years old in daycares and non-profit schools for children with Autism and Developmental Disabilities for the last eight years. I love caring for children and enjoy watching them learn and grow into unique and wonderful individuals. I am excited to work in an environment that allows children to learn at their own pace and explore their world without restrictions; I have found this in the Nido classroom with a Montessori approach. In my free time I enjoy hiking, doing puzzles, reading, and spending time with my family.
