Site Director's Bio
My name is Sonal Agrawal and I have been working in the child development field since 2001. Before that I completed my Bachelors of art in India and graduated in 2009 with my associate degree in early childhood education. I found working with children very interesting and thus devoted my last 20 years to these efforts. I believe all kids deserve to have a safe educational environment to learn and grow.
My journey at Tulip began back in 2013 as a pre-k teacher. I am so proud that Tulip provides a great environment for children where we’re focused on lots of educational fun. I always believe that children learn best when the learning environment is designed to meet the developmental needs of each unique child and one that encourages exploration, creativity, and independence.
In my personal time, I enjoy cooking, hiking, gardening, and spending time with my family and friends.
