Ms. Ritika Kumar

Founder | Chalk Montessori
About Ritika Kumar

Ritika Kumar is the founder of Chalk Montessori, a space born from passion, purpose, and a deep love for children. Although she holds a Master’s degree in Finance, her heart always belonged in the world of early childhood education. Her deep love for children and their formative years led her to transition from the corporate path to the world of education.

With a clear and heartfelt vision, Ritika established Chalk Montessori as a thoughtfully prepared, child-centred environment where learning is joyful, meaningful, and developmentally aligned. Her aim is to create a space that feels calm, inspiring, and secure one where each child is encouraged to grow with confidence and discover their unique potential.

She began her career with two years of experience in a school setting, where she gained valuable insight into early learning environments. Determined to build a strong foundation in authentic Montessori education, she went on to complete her AMI Montessori training, embracing the philosophy of respecting the child, fostering independence, and nurturing natural curiosity.

She believes that early childhood lays the foundation for life. Through meaningful work, hands-on materials, and a nurturing approach, she strives to ensure that every child at Chalk experiences joyful learning and holistic growth.
