Anjali Mehta
Toddler Lead Guide
Ms. Anjali has nearly a decade of experience in early childhood education across both the United States and Australia. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Commerce and completed her Certificate III in Early Childhood Education and Care in Australia in 2015. Over the years, she has worked in a variety of settings—including Montessori, traditional preschools, family day care, and mixed-age classrooms—giving her a well-rounded perspective on supporting children’s development.
Her teaching experience includes guiding toddlers and preschoolers, designing play-based curriculum, and building strong relationships with families. In 2016, she was honored with the Best Educator Award from Playmates Family Day Care in Melbourne for her dedication and impact.
Anjali is passionate about creating a nurturing, stimulating, and fun environment where each child’s unique interests and strengths can shine. She strongly believes in partnering with parents—recognizing them as their child’s first and most important teacher—and values open communication to support every child’s growth.
Having relocated to Austin with her family, Anjali became part of the Leander community. Outside the classroom, she enjoys cooking, exploring art and music, and spending time with her loved ones.
