I am Maryan Torres-Monsalve With 27 years of experience in education and child development, My mission is to help families understand and nurture the five essential areas of growth: social-emotional, cognitive, physical, language, and adaptive skills.
My work places a strong emphasis on social and emotional development, where children learn to build confidence, manage emotions, communicate needs, and respect limits. I believe emotional intelligence is not about avoiding frustration, but about teaching children to navigate it with support, structure, and love.
Through A Magic Mind, I guide parents to create balanced environments — where play, learning, and discipline coexist. My philosophy blends evidence-based developmental practices with practical parenting tools that strengthen connection while fostering independence, resilience, and respect.
Because every child’s mind is magic — and it deserves to be guided with both heart and direction.
"Beyond preparing them for the future, I have gained valuable life lessons from children. They possess wisdom that surpasses that of adults; we simply need to learn to listen to their language."
