To Our Valued Customers:
We are delighted to inform you that Montessori Services and For Small Hands have become a part of the Nienhuis Montessori family of companies, uniting two organizations that possess complementary strengths, shared values, and a unified vision for the future. By merging our expertise, resources, and talent, we will be better positioned to serve our customers, enhance our capabilities and product offerings, and provide unparalleled service to our Montessori community as a whole.
Montessori Services and the For Small Hands division of the company have been based in Santa Rosa, California for nearly 40 years. This January, all operations and order fulfillment will transition to Nienhuis Montessori’s USA headquarters in Gilroy, California. We do not expect any impact on our customers, aside from a slight delay in our initial order fulfillment as we integrate the business into Nienhuis Montessori’s facility.
We are enthusiastic about the opportunities this partnership presents and are confident it will enhance our ability to address the evolving needs of our customers and partners.
Our mission remains to deliver exceptional service and provide access to the most extensive range of the highest quality Montessori materials globally, which aid children and adults in achieving their full human potential. This encompasses further development, design, manufacturing, and distribution of the most precise, technically and educationally accurate, hand-crafted authentic Montessori materials through sustainable manufacturing practices.
We appreciate your ongoing trust and support, and we all look forward to a successful and meaningful 2026.
-Your Nienhuis Montessori & Montessori Services Teams
