Miss Bhavya
co-owner & director
Hello! My name is Bhavya. My journey into the world of child care began at home, quite literally, when my mom started a family child care program right in our living room. Watching her nurture and support children every day ignited my curiosity and deep fascination with how children grow, learn, and develop. From a young age, I found myself drawn to the wonder of childhood and the incredible potential within each child.
Growing up, I explored many different dreams. At one point, I wanted to be an actress, imagining the stage as a place where I could tell stories and connect with people. Then, I was captivated by the power of writing and storytelling. Later, I thought I might pursue medicine, driven by a desire to care for and heal others. But it was during a high school child development class that everything clicked for me—I realized that supporting children in their earliest stages of growth was where my true passion lay. There was so much to learn about how children develop emotionally, socially, and cognitively, and I knew I wanted to be part of that journey.
I pursued that calling wholeheartedly, earning my Bachelor of Arts in Child Development and then a Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Mills College. These years of study deepened my understanding of child development theories and practical teaching approaches, preparing me for a meaningful career. During the challenging times of the pandemic, I stepped into the role of preschool director, a position that tested my leadership skills and resilience but also fueled my dedication. Being a director allowed me to shape an environment where children, families, and educators could thrive together.
After five years of leading a preschool, I am more inspired than ever to create a space that is not just about learning, but about community, connection, and real magic. I want this place to be a haven where children feel seen and supported, where creativity flourishes, and where everyone—from children to parents to staff—feels part of something special.
My mom and I are incredibly excited to embark on this new journey together. Combining her years of experience and my passion for child development, we’re committed to creating a nurturing, joyful environment that brings positive change and lasting magic into the lives of the children and families we serve.​

Miss Parul
co-owner
My name is Parul, and I am the founder of Little Angels School. I started my family child care business in 2003 as a way to stay at home with my two children, who were 5 and 7 years old at the time. What began as a personal decision to be with my children quickly blossomed into a deep passion for early childhood education.
​
Though I initially had little knowledge of early childhood development, I was filled with hope and excitement to learn. I went on to complete my ECE units and completed an internship at an established school, where I gained hands-on experience and furthered my understanding of child development. Armed with that knowledge and experience, I was able to expand my family child care into a nurturing and supportive environment where children can grow, learn, and thrive.
​
I value and thank everyone who has supported me along the way, and I’m thrilled to partner with my daughter, Bhavya, as we embark on the exciting journey of opening our first preschool center. It’s a new chapter, and I couldn’t be more excited about the future!
