My name is Maureen Phelan. I live in Howth with my
husband and two children Cait and Finn.
I have had a very varied career in terms of study and
work. I studied English & Philosophy in UCD and did
a Masters in Arts Management. I worked in Sullivan
Bluth Animation Studios as a cell painter and inking
artist, Hot Press Magazine and an Advertising
Agency in London.
I spent some time working out in Romania back
in 1993 and it was here that I got my first taste of
teaching small children. This experience shaped
my life and I undertook a post-graduate diploma in
Montessori teaching for 3-6 year old.
I set up Mo's Montessori in 2010 and it has been the
most wonderful and rewarding experience. I love
working with the children and that really is what it is all about for me. I recently
completed the LINC Leadership for Inclusion course which has helped bring me up
to date with current ideas for working with children.
