Consulting Services: Daycare Program for First Nations Bands
 |
| Saanich Peninsula Project Vancouver Island British Columbia Canada |
Virna Tiller has over 20 years experience in supervising, organizing and directing early education programs in both Canada and Latin America.
She supervised
an early education project for UNICEF in Peru. She organized a community
daycare project in Honduras, Central America, and was an advisor to a
national daycare
program to train teachers in the Montessori method.
More recently, she organized and directed a daycare program with a Montessori
preschool component for four First Nations bands in
the Saanich Peninsula, British Columbia, Canada.
Her special
interest is in assisting First Nations communities to establish Montessori-based
daycare and preschool programs to give their children the opportunity
for individualized learning at their own pace. By including the active
participation of elders and other community members in the program, the
children, moreover, gain a deeper understanding of their cultural heritage.
