My name is Vasudha Sharma and I am honored to build and own Kiddie Academy of Snoqualmie. I am also a wife, a mother, a Physical therapist, a School Volunteer, and a Community Servant. Having worked as a Registered Physical Therapist for 20-plus years, I understand the importance of providing exceptional care for individuals in our community. Quality care is sometimes hard to come by, which is why I have shifted my efforts to providing excellent childcare in the area. While raising my 2 boys I found myself constantly looking for ways to provide an enriching and engaging environment for them. This really opened my heart to the possibility of shaping children’s futures through a safe and nurturing environment for years to come. I am very passionate about early childhood education and have organized and volunteered in many projects promoting maternal and child health, growth and development. With a healthcare background, I also plan to offer specialized care for some children and parents who need extra support. I am excited to build the Kiddie Academy of Snoqualmie in order to focus on and address those specific needs. I am originally from New Delhi, India, and immigrated to the US in 2004. Since then, I have been very involved in numerous local and international community organizations, which has helped me grow my experience and knowledge to serve all families with love and compassion. I founded the nonprofit organization Voice of Planet with a mission to empower communities to create inclusivity. The organization has actively supported welfare programs for women, children, and aging populations. I truthfully feel that this is the opportunity to positively impact not only local children but also the employees of the Academy. I look forward to serving the community, employees, and friends with a trusted and safe learning environment at Kiddie Academy of Snoqualmie.

My name is Martli van Heerden and I am very excited to be the new center director at Kiddie Academy of Snoqualmie. I was born and raised in a teaching family in South Africa. I have been teaching since 2007 ranging from ECE Montessori to Cambridge A-levels. Teaching has always been a passion of mine. In 2013 we made the big move from South Africa to Washington State. In recent years I have decided to challenge myself by moving into the role of Assistant Director. In this position, I discovered my passion for leading a wonderful team of teachers. From here I transitioned to Center Director at another childcare facility, before ultimately joining the team at Kiddie Academy. I am excited to be a part of the wonderful team at Kiddie Academy of Snoqualmie and cannot wait to meet and personally get to know everyone here. In my spare time, I love to ride horses, be outdoors, and to spend time with my family.
