Choosing a preschool isn’t about finding the best school — it’s about finding the right school for your child. And yet, families often make this decision without ever understanding how schools themselves choose the children who join their community.In this special Kidsstoppress roundtable, we sit down with five of Mumbai’s leading educators to uncover something parents rarely get to hear: what principals look for when selecting students, and how each school’s philosophy shapes that decision.Meet the voices behind some of the city’s most respected early education environments:Comini — Sai GaddamA progressive microschool powered by neuroscience, technology, and personalised learning that helps every child discover their unique rhythm of learning.Ubuntu Montessori — Sejal ShahAn authentic Montessori environment where independence, exploration, and joy guide both teaching and admissions.Tridha — Gauri SavlaRooted in the Waldorf (Steiner) philosophy, where imagination, rhythm, and creativity shape how children — and families — are welcomed into the school.Harmony Montessori — Beena ParekhOne of Mumbai’s oldest Montessori spaces, built on freedom, structure, and respect — values that extend to how they choose their community.Circles & Cycles — Naama SinghA Reggio Emilia–inspired space that believes in relationships, connection, and understanding each child’s individuality from the very first interaction.This conversation goes beyond brochures and campus tours. It reveals how schools think, who they believe will thrive in their environment, and what parents should understand before applying.If you’re a parent of a preschooler, this is a must-watch.Not to find the “perfect” school — but to find the right one.Tune In NowSupport the show
