Teachers
Greetings!
The children call me Bibi Jameela. I am a certified primary (3-6 years old) Montessori teacher, experienced doula, and farmer passionate about creating nurturing, child-centered learning environments.
I believe in the transformative power of education and dedicate myself to helping families and children thrive by fostering independence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning.
As the lead teacher and Montessori consultant for Ancestors Seeds, I chose to join this learning pod because it aligned with my mission to honor the cultural and familial heritage of each child while incorporating Montessori principles. I transformed the space from a small learning pod into a fully functional, enriching classroom where children can grow academically, emotionally, and socially.
This role allows me to combine my love for hands-on learning, sustainability, and community building. I’m passionate about empowering children to connect with themselves, their roots, and the world around them, cultivating confident, compassionate, and capable individuals for the future.
I offer Montessori consulting for homeschooling parents, educational institutions and micro schools. I also offer doula services.

Greetings!
The children call me, Mama Jah. I am the infant/toddler guide.
My calling to education stems from a deep passion for shaping a better future through our children. I believe in creating an authentic, loving environment where children can grow, explore, and discover themselves freely – as this is essential for the future we envision.
I chose to join Ancestors' Seeds because I wanted to be part of something transformative. This space embodies everything I value: empowering authentic nurturing and honoring our ancestors, without whom we wouldn't exist today. Ancestors' Seeds is uniquely blessed and guided by ancestral wisdom, making it a truly special educational community.
