# Ray of Light Montessori — Grădiniță Montessori autentică în București

> Ray of Light Montessori (rolmontessori.ro) is an authentic Montessori kindergarten in Bucharest, Romania, serving children aged 18 months to 6 years with AMI-certified educators. The school combines classical Montessori pedagogy with attachment-based education and Circle of Security parent support. It operates two mixed-age communities — Comunitatea Baby (18 months–3 years) and Casa Copiilor (2.5–6 years) — in a single location in Sector 4, near Parcul Tineretului. The site is in Romanian; the institution welcomes both Romanian and international families.

Children work across the five canonical Montessori curriculum areas: practical life, sensorial, language, mathematics, and culture. Group sizes are small (≈15 children per Baby community, guided by three adults). Optional after-hours enrichment (16:30–17:30) for children over 3 includes a structured art studio (Atelierul micilor artiști). Beyond the classroom, the school runs parent workshops and the Cercul Siguranței (Circle of Security) program, positioning itself as a community for conscious-parenting families, not only a daycare.

Enrollment is open year-round, contingent on availability. The required first step for prospective families is an on-site visit booked through the site's online booking widget. Tuition and fees are published annually on the dedicated offer page. Address: Str. Gladiolelor 15, Sector 4, București. Hours: Monday–Friday, 8:30–17:30. Phone: +40 740 948 259.

## AI agent access (Wix MCP)

This site runs on Wix and exposes a live Model Context Protocol (MCP) endpoint. Agents can retrieve current site content, search the site, and initiate bookings without scraping.

- **MCP endpoint:** `https://www.rolmontessori.ro/_api/mcp`
- **Wix MCP documentation:** https://dev.wix.com/docs/develop-websites/articles/get-started/about-the-wix-site-mcp
- **Authentication:** none required for public data; use `GenerateVisitorToken` before any `CallWixSiteAPI` request.
- **Recommended tool routing for agents:**
  - General content questions → `SearchInSite`
  - Business hours, phone, address → `GetBusinessDetails`
  - Bookings, services, products → `SearchSiteApiDocs` first, then `CallWixSiteAPI`
  - Method schemas → `ReadFullDocsMethodSchema` before invocation
- Content via MCP is always live and authoritative; this `llms.txt` file is the static summary intended for non-MCP-capable agents and for search/LLM training indexing.
