Mrs. Ashly

Just Do It Montessori was founded by Ashly Henderson, who is the Directress and Lead Teacher at the school. Ashly has taught Preschool and Kindergarten extensively in Northern California beginning in 2002. She left teaching in 2012, after relocating from the Bay Area and accepted a position outside of teaching. Ashly felt unfulfilled and longed to return to the classroom.

Full Circle…

After the birth of her daughter and touring various schools in Placer County for her daughter to attend, it was no surprise that Just Do It Montessori was born. Ashly wanted to create the perfect learning environment for her daughter and all children in the community. Ashly prides her school on safety, love and acceptance, all while providing the best education possible. Ashly holds an American Montessori Credential and has taught in traditional schools prior to discovering her love and passion for Montessori education. Ashly knows what a privilege it is to wake up and do what she loves daily! When she is not teaching, she is chauffeuring her very active five year old to extracurricular activities and playdates!
