About
Story of Little Elly
Back in 2004, Mr. Vittal and Mrs. Preeti Bhandary searched in their neighborhood for an outstanding preschool for their daughter. While they came across many good preschools & nurseries, they soon realized that not one of these schools offered a holistic and developmental early education program that every child needs in order to discover a natural love for learning and overall personality development.
Being an innovative & passionate kindergarten teacher herself, Mrs. Preethi along with her husband Mr. Vittal, decided to start Little Elly as a flagship brand of Learning Edge India Pvt. Ltd, a company synonymous with education in Bangalore.
Today,
Little Elly continues to grow every day, enriching the lives of preschoolers in various parts of the country. It is an institution that strives to foster strong skills and an everlasting passion for learning as the child grows and is ready to take on the challenges of grade school.
