Welcome to the Gopa Montessori family — caring teachers committed to our students and families, and a safe, green space where children explore and thrive.
Choosing childcare is one of the hardest decisions a parent makes. Your child will spend many formative years at school, so you want somewhere patient, loving and genuinely invested in them.
Our teachers are dedicated to our students and their families. We work to understand every child’s growing needs and keep communication with parents open and transparent, so children get the support they need both at school and at home.
Our campus gives children a safe space to explore and thrive. It is filled with nature, and the food is vegetarian and mostly organic — the love and peace that form the foundation of a joyful childhood.

Founder
I am a Computer Science graduate from Anna University and worked in IT in various roles across different companies. My passion for kids, and the non-profit work I did with children through the Art of Living, inspired me to switch to a career with kids. I am passionate about empowering them to take on the world with courage and confidence. I am a Montessori-certified early childhood instructor and taught in four different schools before starting my own.
Lead Teacher
I hold a Washington State ECE Initial Certificate and have worked with children ages 2–5 since 2024. In my classroom, my first priority is the children’s safety, happiness and confidence — when children feel safe, happy and confident, they are able to grow, learn and explore. I love creating a warm, caring classroom where children learn through hands-on activities and exploration. Outside of work, I enjoy time with my family and making special memories on vacations together.
