Inside Manyata Tech Park, a small school is doing something big – raising children the way nature intended.
Every morning, while thousands of engineers, product managers, and analysts swipe into one of Bengaluru’s largest tech parks, a quieter kind of work begins just a few hundred metres away.

At Krityam Montessori Preschool and Daycare, toddlers are pouring water into cups, arranging beads by size, and tending to small plants – not because a teacher told them to, but because they *want* to. This is Montessori education in its truest form. And for the parents who work in Manyata Tech Park, having it right there – inside the campus – has changed everything.
The Problem No One Was Solving
For working parents in North Bengaluru, the daily school run is one of the most stressful parts of the day. Drop-off at 8 AM, a commute across the city, a full workday, and then a race back before the school closes at 1 PM. Many parents were making compromises – enrolling their children in “Montessori-themed” schools that were Montessori in name only, simply because they were conveniently located.
Krityam Montessori Preschool and Daycare was founded to solve exactly this problem. It is the first and only authentic, IMC-certified Montessori preschool in Manyata Tech Park built for the parents who refused to choose between a great career and a great education for their child.
What Makes It Different
The word “Montessori” has become something of a marketing label in India’s preschool industry. Krityam Montessori Preschool and Daycare takes it seriously.
Every teacher at Krityam holds certification from the Indian Montessori Centre (IMC) – one of the most respected Montessori training bodies in the country. The classrooms are built around authentic Montessori materials and a child-led philosophy where independence, curiosity, and hands-on exploration are not just encouraged – they are the entire point.
“We don’t teach children what to think,” says the school’s founder, Debashree Satpathy. “We build an environment where they discover how to think.”
Programs begin as early as 6 months of age with the Infancy Program, and continue through the Exploratory Development Program for children aged 3 to 6. For working parents who need coverage beyond school hours, the Extended School Program offers Montessori-aligned daycare until 6 PM – so the learning never abruptly stops when the bell rings.
Meals are freshly prepared, nutritionist-designed, and served on campus. The school is staffed entirely by women – selected not just for credentials but for the warmth and patience that young children need in their earliest years.
A Campus That Works For Families
Location is everything – and Krityam knows it.
Situated within the secure, gated premises of Manyata Tech Park at F52, Manyata Residency, Nagavara, the school eliminates the single biggest pain point for tech-park parents: the commute. Parents drop their child off on the way to their desk. They eat lunch knowing their child is 500 metres away. And when the workday ends, pickup is part of the walk to the parking lot.
The campus operates five days a week, from 9 AM to 6 PM, with a safety and security infrastructure that matches the tech park around it.
Why It Matters Now
India is in the middle of a quiet revolution in early childhood education. Decades of research have confirmed what Maria Montessori observed over a century ago: the first six years of a child’s life are the most critical for cognitive, emotional, and social development. What happens in those years — the environments children are placed in, the freedom they are given, the adults who guide them — shapes who they become.
Krityam is betting that Bengaluru’s parents — among the most educated and informed in the country — are ready to demand better. Not just a safe place to leave their child, but a place where something real is happening.
The early signs are telling. Enrolments have grown primarily through word of mouth — parents telling colleagues, neighbours, and friends about what they’ve seen in their own children. In a world of paid advertisements and Instagram aesthetics, there is no more honest endorsement than that.
For Parents Who Want Both
Krityam’s message to working parents is simple: you don’t have to choose.
You can build the career you’ve worked hard for. And your child can have the childhood they deserve – curious, unhurried, and rooted in real learning.
That’s what Krityam Montessori Preschool and Daycare is here for.
