Our Story
And Vision
Overview
At Peppermint Stick Preschool, we’re all about creating a warm, welcoming space where children feel safe, supported, and inspired to learn. Since 2019, under the ownership of Bijena Adhikari, we’ve focused on building a preschool that feels like a second home—where love, laughter, and learning go hand in hand.
Our vision is brought to life every day by an incredible team of educators who create a nurturing, engaging environment that supports each child’s unique journey and fosters confidence, creativity, and curiosity.
Our teachers are knowledgeable, passionate, and deeply committed to early childhood education. They build strong connections with children and families, making sure every child feels seen, valued, and excited to learn.
Using The Creative Curriculum, we guide children through hands-on, play-based learning experiences that support growth in all areas—social, emotional, physical, and cognitive.
We’re more than a preschool—we’re a community.
And we’d love to welcome your family into ours.
Key Benefits

Emotional Growth
Feelings matter here. We prioritize social-emotional development, helping children learn to express themselves, empathize with others, and build confidence. Emotional intelligence is a cornerstone of lifelong success, and we weave it into all we do.
Family Partnership
We believe educators and families are partners in a child’s development. We maintain open, consistent communication with parents and welcome you into our community. From daily updates (via Brightwheel and in person) to family events and workshops, we work hand-in-hand with you. When families and teachers work together, children thrive.
