Mainly Montessori — Terms of Service
Nov 11, 2026 · @Pilar
Effective date: November 11, 2026
Agreement to these terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and Mainly Montessori ("we," "us," or "our"), based in Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA. They apply when you visit mainlymontessori.com or learn.mainlymontessori.com, create an account, join our community, or buy any of our products or services.
By using our Sites or making a purchase, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Refund Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our Sites or services.
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or make a purchase. Our programs are designed for parents and caregivers, not for children to use on their own.
Our products and services
These Terms cover everything we offer. Each sales page describes what's included in that offer; if a sales page and these Terms conflict, the sales page controls for that offer.

As long as we choose to offer them
Lifetime access means access for the lifetime of the product, for as long as Mainly Montessori operates and offers it, not the lifetime of the purchaser. Curriculum files delivered to you by email are yours to keep. If we ever stop offering a product, we'll give you reasonable notice and a way to download what you purchased where possible.
Changes to programs. We regularly improve our courses, rename programs, and update schedules. We may change, add, or remove content, live call times, and features, as long as the core of what you purchased stays substantially the same.
Existing members. Members who joined before the Montessori Homeschool Pathway launched keep the pricing and access terms they were given in writing at the time of the change.
Accounts, payments, and renewals
Your account. Please give us accurate information and keep your login private. Each purchase is for one household. You may not share your login, curriculum, or course access with anyone outside your household. You're responsible for activity under your account.
Prices. Prices are listed in U.S. dollars on our sales pages and may change at any time. A price change does not affect a purchase you've already made. Discount codes and sale prices are valid only until their stated expiration and can't be applied after purchase.
Payment plans. If you choose a payment plan, you agree to pay every installment on schedule, even if you stop using the program, unless you receive a refund under our Refund Policy. You authorize us and our payment processor to charge your payment method on each due date. If a payment fails, we'll let you know and try again. If it remains unpaid after 7 days, we may pause your program access until your account is current. Curriculum already delivered is yours to keep.
Enrollment windows. The Montessori Homeschool Pathway opens for enrollment during set windows each year. Joining outside an open window is at our discretion.
Renewals. After your first six months, Pathway membership continues only if you renew at the alumni rate for six or 12 months. There is no month-to-month option. Renewals renew automatically for the same term length at the alumni rate in effect at the time, charged to your payment method on file, unless you cancel before your renewal date. We'll email you a reminder at least 7 days before each renewal. To cancel, email support@mainlymontessori.com before your renewal date. Renewal payments are non-refundable. Your Timeline curriculum stays yours whether or not you renew.
Taxes and fees. You're responsible for any applicable sales tax and any fees charged by your bank or card issuer, such as foreign transaction fees.
Chargebacks. If you have a billing concern, please contact us first so we can make it right. Filing a chargeback without contacting us may result in your account being suspended while the dispute is resolved.
Refunds and our guarantee
Refunds are governed by our separate Refund Policy, which is part of these Terms. If anything here differs from the Refund Policy, the Refund Policy controls. In summary:
Montessori Homeschool Pathway guarantee. You have 60 days from enrollment to request a refund if the program isn't right for you, provided you have completed the First Steps course, completed the Orientation workshop in the Kickoff Series, taught two weeks of lessons, and attended one Office Hours call. Your request must reach us by day 60.
What's refunded. Because the Timeline curriculum is yours to keep, a guarantee refund covers everything you paid beyond the Timeline price. For VIP, the Timeline and the private consultations are not refunded, whether or not the consultations were used.
Sales and discounts. Refunds are based on what you actually paid, not the posted retail price.
Timing. Approved refunds are issued within 5 business days to your original payment method.
Timeline curriculum and renewals. The Timeline curriculum is non-refundable, whether you buy it on its own or as part of the Montessori Homeschool Pathway. Alumni renewals are also non-refundable.
Consultations and coaching. To cancel or reschedule a consultation, including VIP consultations, let us know at least 24 hours before your session. Sessions canceled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours' notice, or missed without notice, are forfeited and not refunded. For six-week coaching programs, a missed session can be rescheduled within one week of its original date, and all sessions must be completed by the program end date stated at purchase.
Refunding your purchase ends your access to the membership, courses, and community for that purchase.
Your license and our intellectual property
All content on our Sites and in our programs, including curricula, lesson plans, Timeline documents and organizers, videos, workshops, call recordings, worksheets, printables, frameworks, and the Mainly Montessori name and logo, is owned by Mainly Montessori or used with permission, and is protected by copyright and trademark law.
What you can do. When you buy a product, we give you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive license to use it to homeschool the children in your own household. You may print materials for that use.
What you can't do without our written permission:
Share, resell, give away, or upload our materials or your login to anyone outside your household
Use our curriculum to teach children outside your household, such as in a co-op, microschool, classroom, or paid tutoring, or as part of a business
Copy, adapt, translate, or create products based on our materials
Post our videos, call recordings, or paid content publicly, including on social media, Facebook groups, or file-sharing sites
Remove copyright notices or branding from our materials
Interested in a co-op or group license? Email support@mainlymontessori.com and we'll talk about options.
Your content. You keep ownership of anything you post in our community. By posting, you give us permission to display it within the community and to use it to run and improve our programs. We will only share your posts, photos, or results publicly, such as in a testimonial, with your permission.
Community, live calls, and consultations
Our community is a place where parents can ask honest questions without judgment. To keep it that way, you agree to:
Treat other members, mentors, and our team with kindness and respect
Keep what other members share in the community and on calls confidential, and never screenshot or share it outside
Protect children's privacy by not posting other people's children or identifying details about any child
Not post spam, advertise your own products or services, or recruit members for other programs without permission
Not post anything harassing, hateful, discriminatory, sexually explicit, or illegal
We may remove content or suspend or end access for anyone who doesn't follow these guidelines. If access is ended for a guidelines violation, no refund is owed.
Live calls. Office Hours, Planning Calls, and workshops are recorded and shared with members inside the program. By joining a live call, you agree to being recorded. Live call schedules may change, and recordings are provided when a call is missed.
AI assistant. Our community may include an AI assistant for technical and navigation help. Its answers may contain mistakes. For guidance about your child or your homeschool, please bring your questions to our forums, Office Hours, or a mentor.
Consultations and coaching are educational guidance and parent coaching only. They are not therapy, counseling, medical, psychological, or legal advice.
Disclaimers and limits of liability
Educational content only. Our programs share Montessori principles and our experience as trained guides and homeschooling parents. They are not a substitute for advice from a doctor, therapist, educational psychologist, attorney, or other licensed professional. You're responsible for decisions about your child's education, health, and safety.
Homeschool laws. Homeschooling requirements vary by state and country. You're responsible for following the laws where you live.
Materials and activities. Many Montessori activities use real objects, small parts, tools, water, and food. Always supervise children, use age-appropriate materials, and judge what is safe for your child. We are not responsible for injuries or damage from activities or materials.
No guaranteed results. Every child and family is different. Examples, stories, and testimonials reflect individual experiences and are not a promise of specific outcomes. Your results depend on many factors, including your time, consistency, and your child's needs.
Third-party links and products. We may link to or recommend materials, books, or tools from other companies, and some links may be affiliate links that earn us a commission at no extra cost to you. We aren't responsible for third-party products, websites, or services.
"As is." Our Sites and services are provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We don't guarantee the Sites will always be available or error-free.
Limitation of liability. To the fullest extent the law allows, Mainly Montessori and its owners, mentors, and contractors are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of our Sites or services. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
Indemnification. You agree to hold Mainly Montessori harmless from claims arising from your misuse of our services, your content, or your violation of these Terms.
Ending access, governing law, and contact
Ending your access. You can stop using our services at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you break these Terms, share your access or our materials, miss payments, or harm our community. Sections about intellectual property, payment obligations, disclaimers, and limits of liability continue after your access ends.
Resolving disputes. If something goes wrong, please contact us first. Most concerns can be resolved with a conversation. If we can't resolve it informally within 30 days, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and any dispute will be handled in the state or federal courts located in El Paso County, Colorado.
Changes to these Terms. We may update these Terms from time to time. We'll update the effective date at the top and, for significant changes, let members know by email or in the community. Continuing to use our services after a change means you accept the updated Terms. Changes won't apply retroactively to purchases already made.
Other terms. If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest still applies. Our not enforcing a provision isn't a waiver of it. These Terms, our Privacy Policy, our Refund Policy, and the sales page for your purchase make up the full agreement between you and Mainly Montessori.
