Hello

It is a pleasure to meet you. I am Varshini Kannan, a daughter, wife, mother, and Montessori Guide. I graduated with a major in Biotechnology in India and found my passion with the exposure to Montessori in 2010 after I came to the US. It is a method that nurtures and honors the child as themselves. I completed my AMS Earlychildhood Credential from Montessori Teacher Education Center (MTEC), Bay area in 2012.

​

Ever since I have been helping children get their best start in life as a Montessori guide at various preschools in Bay Area.  I am deeply passionate about the Montessori method and its transformative impact on children's learning journeys. This approach fosters independence, curiosity, and a love for learning, making it one of the best ways to support a child's development. Join me as we explore how Montessori can provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning and growth.
