Welcome

At Morning Sun Montessori Preschool, we believe that every child deserves a safe and nurturing environment that promotes compassion, independence, and social-emotional skills. Our intimate home environment and Montessori-based curriculum provide children 2.5-4 years old with the opportunity to learn at their own pace and develop a kinship with nature while becoming part of a peaceful and inclusive learning community.

Our Values

At Morning Sun Montessori Preschool, you can expect these values to inform our loving approach.

Nature

Children will establish a kinship with the natural world through gardening and care of the community along with daily time spent outdoors playing, exploring, and creating.

Gentle

MSMP meets children eye-to-eye with unconditional love, respect, and sensitivity while providing a safe base with reasonable structures, boundaries, limits, and consistency. We believe that connection, trust, and felt safety are the foundation for offering our peace to children in a dysregulated moment. We believe that nothing disarms Fear like Play and that all children are good inside.

Everyone Welcome

MSMP follows federal regulations and does not discriminate based on race, color, national and ethnic origin, or orientation and affirms and celebrates the dignity, beauty, and diversity of every human being.

Wonder

Through the Montessori materials and time spent in nature, we will strive to create moments of wonderment, awe, curiosity, creativity, and joy- experiences that cultivate a good and beautiful childhood.

Village Model

We are an intentionally small community that encourages children and families to interweave with each other and the local community to foster closer relationships and individualized care. We will partner with community organizations and host community classes and parent education events.

Nourishing

We will provide child-friendly recipes and ingredients and use local, seasonal, sustainable, and organic whenever possible to ensure our students receive the highest quality and variety of food.

Children deserve to have opportunities for wonderment, awe and joy through interactions with nature and beauty in their environment

We have started the update process by adding a mud pit, sand box and garden and have plans to update the floors of our 1950s house, build a better fence, landscape and much more.
