Our Staff
Director
Hello! I’m Saba, an educator with over 18 years of experience dedicated to creating enriching, inclusive learning environments where children thrive. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics and am certified by the American Montessori Society, with a specialization in supporting children with special needs within a Montessori framework.
My passion lies in nurturing a lifelong love of learning in every child. By embracing the Montessori philosophy, I guide students to explore, discover, and grow at their own pace while feeling supported, respected, and understood.
In addition to my classroom work, I hold a certification in School Management and Leadership from Harvard Online Business School. This has empowered me to build and lead collaborative, effective educational communities that put children first and support teachers in their vital roles.
Beyond education, I’m an avid hiker—I’ve climbed Mount St. Helens twice—and I’ve proudly served as a Girl Scout troop leader, helping young girls build confidence, leadership skills, and a sense of community. I also enjoy crochet, a creative outlet that reminds me of the beauty of patience and focus.
I believe in lifelong learning and continuously strive to grow both personally and professionally.

I was born and raised in Japan and have been living in the United States since 2021. I have two daughters, and my family enjoys spending time outdoors—camping and barbecuing in the summer, and skiing in the winter. I believe in growing and learning together with children, and I’m excited to be part of this journey. Thank you for having me!
