About Me
Dear Parents,
My name is Debbie Krishnan and I am not only the Montessori teacher but I am also a parent. I believe that children are indeed like little flowers, tender, soft and waiting to blossom. Like flowers, they need the right environment to open up, brighten up their lives and most importantly, bring a whiff of fragrance into others' lives as well.
Hence my goal is to create an environment where these little children can learn, laugh and enjoy life. As parents and teachers, we know that every child has that seed of inherent potential, inner strengths and talents to flourish. As a teacher, I will strive to nurture this seed in every child to its fullest capacity so that he/she blossoms and succeeds.
