Meeting NQS

Meet Our Team

Hello! My name is Anisha Poudel, and I am the proud Centre Manager at Papilio Dundas Valley. With five years of experience in the early childhood field and a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education and Care, I have found my true calling in nurturing young minds. Watching children grow, learn, and flourish brings me immense joy and drives my dedication to creating a positive and enriching environment for every child.

What truly excites me about this field is the opportunity to make a meaningful impact, not just in the lives of children but also in building strong connections with families and the wider community. I believe that fostering genuine relationships between educators, children, and families is the foundation for a thriving, supportive learning environment where children feel safe, valued, and empowered to explore their world.

At Papilio Dundas Valley, I work alongside a passionate team of educators who share my commitment to excellence. Together, we create child-led programs that celebrate individuality, spark curiosity, and inspire a lifelong love of learning. By partnering with families and connecting with local schools and communities, we ensure that every child’s early education journey is filled with care, discovery, and joy.
