Malina Brown "Miss Mimi"
I am a passionate Montessori teacher of over 15 years. My love of Montessori began when I was just a young girl of 4 and attending a Montessori preschool myself. I remember the environment making sense and being a peaceful place to be. That feeling has been my inspiration while building Sunshine House Montessori. I want every child to feel safe, unhurried, inspired, respected and most of all loved.
