Nursery Care
Parents are who knows their children best, we value and respect their opinion and we work on an “open doors” basis where parents are welcome to come in and share their views at any time, they feel necessary.
Nursery London
At Sunflower Montessori Nursery School, we believe that strong partnerships with parents are at the heart of every child’s success. Located in the heart of Mottingham, we are committed to offering an open, transparent, and collaborative approach to early years education. We know that parents are their children’s first educators, and by working closely together, we create a consistent, nurturing environment that helps every child thrive.
Our parent partnerships are rooted in respect, trust, and ongoing communication. That’s why we operate an “open door” policy, inviting you to visit, share insights, and be part of your child’s journey at every stage.

You’re welcome to stay with your child on the first day and gradually step back when they’re ready. Our experienced key workers will build a secure, trusting relationship with your child from the very beginning
We use the My Montessori online software to keep you informed and connected throughout your child’s day.
