Meet our team
The caring faces behind Building Kidz of San Ramon
Our team pours heart, training, and lifelong passion into every child who walks through our doors.
Owner/Director/Culture Champion
Ms. Brijeeta
Six years ago, I embarked on a journey that has been nothing but pure joy. We opened our doors one month before COVID hit our world. To see the impact our preschool makes to each and every child makes it ALL worth it. My passion for developing the whole child and creating a safe and nurturing environment has allowed me to create lifelong bonds with my team, parents and children. We strive on building social and emotional growth, working on academic skills and building the whole child through our performing arts classes, our curriculum, our learning through life experiences, and public speaking. I have three children of my own and have spent years volunteering and leading events in the Public School sector.
Assistant Director/Talent Coordinator
Ms. Surbhi
I hold a Masters degree in Business Statistics, along with an Early Childhood Education teaching certificate. My journey in education began as a high school teacher in India. After moving to the United States and starting my family in California, I became involved in my childrens preschool by volunteering in their classrooms. With over 10 years of experience in early childhood education, I am passionate about creating a nurturing, engaging, and supportive environment where every child feels safe, valued, and inspired. I spent six wonderful years as a teacher at Building Kidz of San Ramon before stepping into my role as Assistant Director.
Teacher/Social Media Curator
Ms. Ayashmita
I have been an early childhood educator with nearly three years in the field. After a decade in consulting and services, I followed a calling and moved into education. I am proud to work at Building Kidz of San Ramon, where I love the thoughtful curriculum and nurturing environment. As a wife and mother, I know firsthand what families value most: warmth, patience, and genuine care. My goal is to build a joyful, safe space where every child can learn, grow, and shine.
Teacher/Toddler Whisperer
Ms. Mau
I have been working with children of all ages for 24 years and counting, primarily in the infant and toddler room. I have been a toddler teacher for over 4 years at Building Kidz of San Ramon. My goal is to provide a nurturing class where every child can feel safe, loved, supported, and encouraged. I also have three children of my own. In my free time, I love to be around my friends and family, try new foods, and explore nature.
Teacher/Event Planner Extraordinaire
Ms. April
I have an AA in Early Childhood Education and a BA in Criminal Justice, but my passion has always been working with and shaping young minds. I have spent over 25 years in a preschool classroom. I believe in providing a safe space so every child can develop confidence and pride in all they accomplish. When I am not in the classroom I spend time with my loved ones, especially my 8 year old grandson.
Teacher/Social Media Maven
Ms. Jess
I have been teaching for 4+ years, and I would not want it any other way. Watching young minds become confident, independent, responsible and respectful is beyond rewarding. As a Pre-K teacher here at Building Kidz of San Ramon, I see firsthand the development of each and every child. When I am not educating our future, I am a mom to an energetic and adorable 2 year old. I also enjoy crafting and baking.
Teacher/Chaos Coordinator
Ms. Ritje
I have been teaching young children for over 20 years, and it has been an incredibly rewarding journey. I love helping children learn, grow, and discover their unique strengths. Every child has amazing potential, and I am grateful to play a part in building a strong foundation for their future. When I am not coordinating chaos, I am exploring nature or enjoying a unique dish. I love the great outdoors.
Teacher/STEM Facilitator
Ms. Dana
As a passionate early childhood educator with over 8 years of experience, I am dedicated to nurturing the creativity and curiosity of young minds. I have developed expertise in diverse educational philosophies, including Waldorf, Reggio Emilia, and Montessori. I also have experience in the scientific field, allowing me to engage children in hands-on experiments and foster a love for discovery. I emphasize artistic expression through my love for arts and crafts.
Teacher/Soiree Orchestrator
Ms. Wendy
I have been teaching for over 30 years and I truly enjoy working with children. I started teaching right after high school and have continued my early childhood education. I love the curiosity, the heart, the hugs, the chaos, and the intelligence that each child brings. Here at Building Kidz of San Ramon, we help each child thrive and grow. When I am not shaping little minds, I am hiking, kickboxing or enjoying time with family and friends.
