Sunshine Square Montessori — Early Years School Website
An admissions-focused school website built around one decision: whether a parent books a tour.
Overview
Sunshine Square Montessori is a concept build for an early years school, designed around the single conversion that matters in school admissions, booking a campus visit.
Everything on the site works backward from that: the program explanation, the daily routine, the gallery and the FAQ all exist to remove a specific parental objection before the tour request.

- Context
- Choosing a school is an emotional, high-trust decision made largely by parents researching on a phone, usually in the evening, often comparing two or three schools in the same week.
The business challenge
Early years schools compete within a small geographic radius on trust and feel rather than on features. A parent is deciding whether they can picture leaving their child there.
The digital challenge
Most school websites are organized around the institution's internal structure, departments, policies, notices, rather than around the questions a prospective parent is actually asking.
Our approach
- 01
Structure navigation around parent questions, Programs, Our Method, A Day Here, Gallery, FAQ, rather than administrative departments.
- 02
Make Book a Tour the single dominant action, present persistently, instead of competing with a dozen secondary links.
- 03
Use the FAQ deliberately to answer the practical objections that otherwise become phone calls: hours, ratios, settling in, what a day involves.
UX & UI strategy
- •Warm, high-clarity visual language appropriate to early years, without becoming childish to the adult who is actually deciding.
- •A Day Here as a distinct section, because parents want the routine, not the curriculum philosophy, before they visit.
- •Gallery treated as primary evidence rather than decoration, since environment is what a parent is really evaluating.
Development approach
- •Content structured so a school administrator can update programs, gallery and FAQ without a developer.
- •Built mobile-first, on the assumption that most prospective-parent research happens on a phone.
