Sunnyside Montessori

Sunnyside Montessori – House of Children provides a nurturing early childhood environment that follows the Montessori philosophy, encouraging children to explore, discover and develop at their own pace. The centre offers a purpose‑built educational setting where each child works independently on specially designed materials, fostering self‑directed learning habits that will support them throughout their schooling. The programme is designed for children who thrive on hands‑on activity and natural development, with a focus on cultivating curiosity, concentration and a love of learning. Operating as an independent, family‑run small business in Happy Valley, Oregon, the centre has been serving the community for nearly two decades. Health and safety are prioritised through strict COVID‑19 protocols, including vaccinated staff, mandatory indoor masks, individual work tables to maintain distancing, air purifiers in each classroom and rigorous cleaning routines. These measures ensure a safe, healthy space where children can engage fully in the Montessori curriculum.
