The toddler years are a golden period for the growth and development of children. Development of each child must be observed, education and teaching needs to be ailored to the child’s development. Montessori is early childhood education leaders who opened the eyes of their sensitive period in children, Montessori asserted that education is self-education.

Abstract/Notes: The purpose of this Bachelor's thesis is to find out children's satisfaction with day care in montessori kindergarten Aurinkoleijona. This study is part of Verkonkutoja-project conducted at Turku University of Applied Sciences. The objective of this research is to create a patern to collect and process customers' feedback. It focuses on five to six years old children in Aurinkoleijona Salo Unit. ”Quality Game” adapted to the children's needs and abilities was used to collect the data. It contained 24 questions considering six themes related to day care: empathy, educational work, circumstances, reliability, responsiveness and assurance. The total of 11 children played the ”Quality Game for Children”: the test group of 3 children in Halikko Unit and 8 children in Salo Unit. The theoretical frame of reference for this thesis was defined in accordance with the quality of day care. It consisted of the facts collected from different sources. The quality of day care is comprised of the experiences of both clients – children and parents – and day care - workers. The quality of day care can be called intersubjective. According to the results, most of the children are satisfied with day care in montessori kindergarten Aurinkoleijona according to the results. Children are especially satisfied with the staff of Aurinkoleijona and its action. All the corresponders can depend on day care adults. Some of the children think that the adults do not have enough time for them. They also give criticism of the day care assignments. The present time and events has an influence on children's satisfaction. There are occasional events in the background of dissatisfaction. Concentration on the game and other children's opinions have an influence on the results. The results show that children are fond of day care theme days, but there is room for improvement. The results of the thesis and the ”Quality Game for Children” will be used in Verkonkutoja-project during next year. / Opinnäytetyöni tarkoituksena oli selvittää lasten tyytyväisyyttä päivähoitoon montessori-päiväkoti Aurinkoleijonassa. Työni on osa Turun ammattikorkeakoulun Verkonkutoja -hanketta, jossa kehitetään asiakaspalautteen keruu- ja käsittelymallia kunnille ja yrityksille. Kohderyhmänä oli Salon yksikön 5 – 6 -vuotiaat lapset. Aineistonkeruumenetelmänä käytin Stakesin Laatupeliä, josta olin muokannut lapsille oman version. Lasten laatupelissä lapsille esitettiin 24 kysymystä liittyen päivähoidon eri osa-alueisiin: empatia, kasvatustyö, olosuhteet, luotettavuus, vastaavuus ja varmuus. Lasten laatupeliä pelasi yhteensä 11 lasta: testipelissä 3 lasta Halikossa ja varsinaisessa pelissä 8 Salossa. Teoreettinen viitekehys työssäni oli päivähoidon laadun määrittely. Se koostui eri lähteistä keräämästäni tiedosta. Päivähoidon laatu muodostuu niin asiakkaiden – lasten ja vanhempien – kuin päivähoidon työntekijöidenkin kokemuksista. Päivähoidon laatua voidaankin kuvailla intersubjektiiviseksi. Tulosten mukaan suurin osa lapsista on tyytyväisiä päivähoitoon montessori-päiväkoti Aurinkoleijonassa. Erityisen tyytyväisiä lapset ovat henkilökuntaan ja sen toimintaan. Kaikki vastanneista kertoo luottavansa päiväkodin aikuisiin. Kritiikkiä herättää aikuisten ajankäyttö ja päiväkodin tehtävien tekeminen. Lasten tyytyväisyyteen vaikuttaa juuri käsillä oleva hetki. Varsinkin tyytymättömyyden taustalla on yksittäiset tapahtumat. Lisäksi peliin keskittyminen ja muiden lasten mielipiteet vaikuttavat tuloksiin. Tuloksista ilmenee, että lapset pitävät päiväkodin teemapäivistä, mutta niissä on kehittettävää. Opinnäytetyöni tuloksia ja Lasten laatupeliä käytetään Verkonkutoja-hankkeessa ensi vuoden aikana.

Abstract/Notes: While many BIPOC Montessori educators engage in anti-racist and culturally responsive teaching, Montessori education remains predominantly race-evasive. As a philosophy, it is rooted in colorblind perspectives in its focus on "all children" and lack of explicit centering of BIPOC students’ experiences. Teaching must account for race and racial lived realities in order to better support BIPOC students’ ways of knowing in culturally relevant and sustaining ways. This study seeks to center the voices of BIPOC Montessori educators and disrupt the pattern of Montessori research conducted without a critical racial lens. Framed by Critical Race Theory, this study focuses on the strengths, assets, and anti-racist teaching practices that one BIPOC educator brings to her classroom. I use critical ethnographic methods to better understand how a BIPOC Montessori teacher at a public charter Montessori school interprets and enacts the Montessori method to support BIPOC students. I consider how her racial identity informs her practices, and the structural barriers she faces at her school when enacting anti-racist and strength-based approaches. The guiding research questions of this study are: How does a Black Montessori teacher interpret the Montessori philosophy to more relevantly support her BIPOC students? How does she practice the Montessori method through culturally relevant and sustaining practices? What are the structural barriers that continue to challenge her as a Black educator doing her work? My analysis suggests that the teacher maintains her classroom space as a tangible and intangible cultural space that reflects and maintains her students' identities; that her own identity as a Black woman deeply contribute to the school's work around anti-racism and culturally responsive pedagogy; and that there are external barriers that both the teacher and the school face, that prevent them both from fully achieving culturally responsive teaching practices. At the core of the study, I seek to understand the possibilities and challenges of Montessori education from the perspective of BIPOC Montessori educators, and how we could learn from them to better support BIPOC students. I hope to begin a path toward more counter-stories in the Montessori community to specifically support BIPOC Montessori educators and understand the structural barriers they face to anti-racist teaching in Montessori programs in the United States.
