Eureka is one of the top preschools backed by IIT, IIM graduates with more than 15 years of experience in Preschool Education. Today, we had an inspiring tête-à-tête with the founder and here’s what she has to say about a child’s growth and their contribution to it.
Let’s take a peek at her journey.
1. Tell us a little about the vision of your pre-school.
- To create a strong foundation for learning in each child
- To be a trusted and dependable partner for parents, in providing a home away from home.
2. Tell us about your journey. How and when did you come up with your brand & what has been the inspiration?
In a career spanning two decades teaching students of diverse age groups from age 3 to 21, I decided to take the plunge and start my entrepreneurial journey as an educationist. I established Sauparnika Educational Trust for this purpose, and Eureka Prep School and Daycare is the first initiative of this trust to provide world-class pre-primary education and care to children in and around Marathahalli. This is just the beginning and we have a long way ahead of us. I’m super excited to have this tremendous opportunity to make our kids fascinated by the world around them, and tickle their curiosity to explore, discover, and master the unknown every day.
3. What is unique about your brand?
- Child centric approach rather than teacher-centric.
- Strong Montessori based philosophy combined with best practices of early childhood methodology.
- Goes way beyond song & dance routines, nursery rhymes and simple playing with toys.
- Materials and tools for learning are designed for the curriculum.
- A methodology that instils a sense of purpose & interest to work hard in the child.
- Revolutionary assessment technique.
- A structured learning program for the overall development of the child.
4. Tell us about the team
We are a team of experienced teachers and daycare professionals with a combined experience of over 20 years in the field of education and childcare
Our staff is trained to ensure that the curriculum objectives for each child are met consistently. They are
- Trained to facilitate learning, observe, record and assess daily. We have an appropriate student-teacher ratio
- To ensure that every child’s needs are met so that they don’t excessively depend on an adult.
The team goes to great lengths to make learning a fun activity for our children. Every day is an opportunity for our kids to explore, discover, and master something unknown & new. Our well qualified and involved team ensures we provide an environment that allows our children to grab these opportunities with open arms.
5. Any messages for the working parents now that the preschools and daycares are have opened up
The best gift you could give your child is the gift of education and quality care. Please invest time and effort to research preschools and daycares in your area and pick one that you would have gone to if you were a child.
Gone are the days of rote learning from textbooks alone. The best learnings happen through experience and involvement of all five senses.
A Child’s path to excellence begins with the perfect role model and the perfect tools.
Research proves that Early Education is critical because:
- Brain development is most rapid in the early years
- 75% of neural connectivity is complete by the age of 7
- When the quality of stimulation is deficient, child development is seriously affected.
The capacity to absorb concepts and learn is highest during Ages 2 to 6. Hence it is important to expose the child to an environment which provides an appropriate stimulus for learning.
Intelligence is important to factor to consider when a child comes to school
