Miss Mehwaish Raja is an elementary school teacher and has taught Elementary school for close to five years. She has also close to ten years experience working as an educator in both private and public daycares in Quebec. Having seen and experienced both public and private daycares, she decided to manage and direct her own daycare to bring the best possible experience to the children attending Kiddy Kat daycare. She has been directing and managing Kiddy Kat daycare since March 1, 2015. Her passion is to bring joy and love to your child’s life. She continuously strives to create the best possible environment that is safe, inclusive, diversified, and open to all children. She describes herself as a lifelong learner and her source of inspiration are your little ones. She keeps herself informed and educated on the latest educational practices and is always ready to implement them at Kiddy Kat daycare. Last but not least, she is a mom of two children under five and she knows just what your child needs are for a great educational and loving environment.
All Kiddy kat staff members have to complete a First Aid Course specialized in early childhood care, along with a complete background check. The Kiddy Kat team is fully bilingual, and prepares weekly lessons plans that take into account the children’s learning goals.

Miss Kristel
I have a degree in International Studies and earned an A.E.C. in Early Childhood Education in 2023. I am relatively new to the field but teaching has always been my passion. I have been volunteering since 2007 to teach in urban poor communities in my hometown and did some community service or outreach programs as the head of the People Program in my previous corporate job in the Philippines. I always feel happy to be of service and learn about children's behavior from day-to-day and be able to contribute to their growth and development. From an aspiring educator to becoming one is a dream come true!
Children communicate their needs in their own unique special way. As educators, our goal is to be able to identify and respond to these needs in an assuring, safe, holistic and conducive educational environment.

Hello!
I hold a diploma in early childhood education from LaSalle College and have completed my Montessori training. For the past 7 years, I have worked as an educator. I have also worked with children requiring special care. Currently, I am studying nutrition. In my free time, I enjoy hiking in nature and staying active.
Additionally, I am a tutor and provide private lessons to elementary school students. The Giraffe class is a delightful journey of exploration, creativity, and success!
Educator
Ms Melanie
With over two decades of experience working with children, I have been a dedicated Early Childhood Educator (ECE) since 2001, working primarily in private daycares and Montessori programs across Montreal. I hold an ECE certification from Vanier College, where I developed a strong foundation in child development and education. I bring a unique blend of fun, energy, and enthusiasm to my work. My passion for science and yoga shines through in my teaching, and I often incorporate these interests into activities to inspire curiosity and promote physical well-being among my students.
As a mother of a 10-year-old girl, I deeply understand the importance of nurturing a child's growth in a supportive and engaging environment. My warmth, creativity, and commitment to fostering a love of learning make me a valued educator in any setting.
