About

Early Years educator with 11+ years of experience, including 5 years within the IB Primary Years Programme. Montessori-trained and a Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert (MIEE), with a strong focus on play-based, inquiry-driven learning for children aged 2–6. I design and lead classroom environments that build foundational literacy, numeracy, and socio-emotional skills through structured play, mindfulness practices, and child-led inquiry — core to both the IB PYP and Montessori philosophies. My background also includes a degree in design, which shapes how I approach classroom environments, learning materials, and visual storytelling in early years pedagogy. Currently an Early Childhood Educator at Shiv Nadar School, Faridabad. Open to Early Years and Foundation Stage roles in international schools worldwide, including relocation opportunities.
