Daksha Raniga

Daksha Raniga studied NNEB (ECE) in Nottingham, UK. She is a mother of three: an eighteen year old, fourteen year old, and an eight year old. She has been teaching with us for over 4 years. Daksha believes that the preschool must be fun, educational, and engaging. Daksha loves not only the way she can inspire and teach children, but also the way that they too can teach her. The Sandpiper program is based on play. Not to mention that basic life skills can be taught through activity, as learning is happening all the time. Therefore, her goal is to make the Sandpiper program safe, positive, and nurturing as each child is unique with different interests, backgrounds and development stages. Outside of her preschool she enjoys hiking, yoga, and cooking.

Failure to give the appropriate amount of notice will result in being charged for an additional month. Withdrawals are not permitted for the months of December, May and June. A one time non-refundable admin fee of $30 is applied at the time of registration. 

Should you withdraw and then re-register your child for preschool, you will be charged an additional admin fee at the time of re-registration. There is no penalty or additional admin fee for transferring your child to a different class at the same preschool. NVRC licensed preschool refund and withdrawal policy applies to students leaving one NVRC preschool and registering at another NVRC preschool location.
