While most Massachusetts business are closed, Maitri Learning is still open! (We fall under the list of essential businesses because we support K-12 schools). We are operating on a separate shift schedule so that no two employees are in our offices at the same time. Although it hasn't happened yet, we understand that this may slow down our ability to fill your orders. Most orders are still filled within a day or two. We will contact you if it will be more than one week before we can ship your order to you.

We are also rigorously cleaning at least twice a day and all of us are frequently washing our hands. No one with any signs of illness or who has been knowingly exposed to COVID-19 has been in the office during the pandemic.

Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns related to the pandemic and our operations. We are missing working physically together every day but we are keeping our spirits up through virtual communications!

We wish you all health, calm, and wisdom in these confusing times.

The Harvard Center for the Developing Child has developed wonderful resources to help those who care for young children. This month they are focused on Serve and Return. The concept of Serve and Return is very much aligned with the Montessori approach. In Montessori-speak it means, "Follow the child." See how many "Montessori moves" you can notice in the video below.

We encourage you to share the Center's resources with your friends, staff, colleagues, and school families. Have a movie night to watch and discuss!
