Montessori Approach:

The Montessori system of education is a philosophy developed around a child's natural growth and the rationale for guiding such growth. The system is based on the child’s developmental needs for freedom within limits. In a carefully prepared environment, the child is guaranteed exposure to materials and experiences through which to develop intelligence as well as physical and psychological abilities.

The Montessori environment is designed to take full advantage of the child’s self-motivation and unique ability to develop his or her own capabilities.

Quality Faculty:
Each Montessori classroom is staffed by a certified AMI Montessori trained guide. Sunny Hollow employs both assistant teachers and child care aides as needed based on student enrollment and our license requirement to maintain staff/student ratios. All staff are Red Cross certified in First Aid / CPR and Bloodborne Pathogens.

Montessori Programs:


- Preschool programs for ages 3-6 years
:  The Montessori Primary environment / “Children’s House” is designed to call to the child’s specific & heightened sensitivities that characterize this stage of development. Each Children’s House is prepared with a full complement of Montessori materials that provide a unique educational experience in the areas of Practical Life, Sensorial, Language, and Mathematics.

- Elementary School programs
:  This is the time to use one’s mind to explore all the areas of knowledge, to learn how to carry out research, and to develop creative ways of processing, exploring and expressing this knowledge. A Montessori elementary teacher gives lessons in all academic areas and guides the children in direction and methods of their own research.
