Meet Kiran
I have been working in the early childhood education and care industry for more than 20 years! Throughout my career, I’ve held roles as an assessor, manager, trainer, assistant center manager, lead educator, educational leader, and assistant educator.
At the core of my pedagogical views is the Reggio Emilia method of learning, which encourages experiences in a natural and child-centered setting, both inside and out.
I have a deep love for early childhood education and care because I think each child learns and grows differently. It can be tremendously inspiring to see the world through our children’s eyes, developing stronger bonds and a happier, more positive environment.
