Our daughter has attended ESMS since she was 2 years old, and through that period she has benefited by learning not only from the EMS. Staff, but from her peers too thanks to the supportive multi-age learning environment that has been created there.

Lucy & Sofi hold the hearts and nurture the minds of the young people who are lucky enough to go to ESMS. Year after year as these children grow and eventually leave their education elsewhere, they are taking with them the incredible warmth and generous spirit that is a the core of Lucy's work, and that can only benefit the wider community.

“Eternally grateful for discovering Lucy and her wonderful progressive “children’s house”. You’ve created something truly unique and special and we are so blessed that our boys got to experience it. Your commitment to the philosophy of Maria Montessori’s vision is to be admired and your dedication to trusting the children to learn by doing is a rare find”

“If you’re looking for a nurturing child-led preschool environment in the East Sussex area look no further! ESMS is a very special place in which children are able to learn and explore at their own pace within a safe, kind community of others.”

“Lucy is wonderful with the children at her nursery. My little girl loved going to nursery and made beautiful friendships there. She’s learned so much while being there and developed into a confident and happy girl ready for school. Thank you Lucy”
