Parent Workshop: Positive Discipline the Montessori Way

What if discipline wasn’t about control—but about connection, guidance, and growth?

In our newest parent workshop, we explore the principles of Positive Discipline, a Montessori-aligned approach that helps children develop independence, responsibility, and emotional resilience—without punishments, bribes, or shouting.

Rooted in respect and trust, Positive Discipline equips parents with the tools to navigate everyday challenges with clarity and compassion. Whether you’re facing power struggles, sibling squabbles, or bedtime battles, this workshop offers practical, peaceful strategies you can start using right away.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to set firm yet kind boundaries

• Ways to encourage independence and problem-solving

• The difference between self-discipline and compliance

• How to replace rewards and punishments with meaningful guidance

• Tips to strengthen the parent-child relationship through empathy and consistency

At Waterfront Academy, we believe in forming the whole child—body, mind, and spirit. Positive Discipline aligns beautifully with our Montessori values, giving parents the tools to raise respectful, responsible, and confident children.

This session is perfect for Montessori and non-Montessori families alike—because every child deserves discipline rooted in dignity and love.
