We are the proud owners of Primrose School of Southeast Ellicott City. With our partners, Falgun Patel and Mital Patel, we opened our first Primrose school in Ellicott City in 2021, and our hands-on approach and dedication have resonated deeply with the families in the community.

Driven by overwhelming support, positive feedback and the desire to create more enriching environments for children, we are so excited to open a second Primrose school. Our experience and insights equipped us to ensure a seamless start to the new location.

Krupali and I migrated to the U.S. in search of better career opportunities in 2001, and excelled in several leadership roles at corporate firms within the D.C. Metro area. While advancing our careers, we have also prioritized family growth and actively supported our children in achieving their aspirations. Krupali and I are proud parents of two wonderful boys, Adi, a high school senior, and Dhruv, who is currently in middle school.

By maintaining a strong connection with families and actively participating in the local community, we have fostered an environment where children thrive, and parents feel confident in their choice of preschool. Our exclusive early learning approach balances purposeful play with nurturing guidance from teachers to encourage curiosity, creativity, confidence and compassion. We deliver more than a curriculum; it’s a life-changing early learning experience for children and their families!

Our family would love to meet yours.
