About Taisiia

Hi! My name is Taya. I'm a Montessori lead teacher based in San Francisco with over nine years of experience working with young children across several countries. I was born and raised in Ukraine and spent much of my childhood traveling with my parents across Europe, which shaped my curiosity and love for different cultures. I hold a Master's Degree (2010) and began my early childhood education journey teaching young children in India. Since then, I've worked in beautiful Montessori schools in China and most recently as a lead teacher here in San Francisco. I truly love working with children - supporting their independence, emotional development, and natural curiosity through mentorship, respect, and partnership. I enjoy helping families with childcare and planning fun activities, and I'm always happy to support parents in creating calm, joyful experiences for their kids.
