About Us
Montessori Design is Nuccia Lipscombe (H.N.D. 3D Design, Int.Mont.Dip Adv.Mont.Dip) and Andrew Hopkins her Antique restorer perfectionist husband.
Nuccia originally studied 3D Design before travelling through the Caribbean and America working in Montessori schools and completed her Montessori Diploma.
After running several Montessori nurseries Nuccia established her own school in Lymington in the heart of the New Forest. Montessori Design by Nuccia was started out of a love for making Montessori equipment for her own school and as a career after she sold the business as a going concern.
It is the combination of knowledge, practical skills, understanding of the Montessori ethos and the experience of setting up and running her own school that makes Montessori Design by Nuccia a unique business catering for children in the home and school.
Nuccia is a distributor for Nienhuis and is proud to be able to supply their quality items from her Montessori Design website and personally at the Montessori conferences throughout the year. The full range of Nienhuis materials are available even though not all are shown on the website.
