Fakhria “Fifi” Afshari Nowroozi
Back in 1999, when my first son was born, I faced a challenging dilemma. As a young mother, I found it incredibly difficult to leave him with a babysitter at such a young age, not knowing what kind of environment he would be in. Ultimately, I made the tough decision to stay home with him. During that time, I began caring for the children of my neighbors who were working moms. That’s when I discovered my passion for working with children.
Over the years, my love for child care continued to grow, and I decided to gain more experience by working at a chain daycare. While the experience was valuable, it opened my eyes to the need for a daycare/ preschool that could provide more personal attention to each child. Large class sizes often felt inefficient and less effective for fostering meaningful connections and individual development. This realization inspired me to return to my roots and create a preschool that focused on providing a nurturing, family-oriented environment. That’s how Fifi’s Creative Kids Center was created a place where children can grow, learn, and thrive with the personalized care and attention they deserve.

Parveen Afshari
Hello! I've been a passionate preschool teacher for 17 years. I've learned a lot about early childhood education, and I love focusing on creativity, curiosity, and critical thinking in a caring environment. I strive to create a warm and inclusive space where kids feel safe to explore, express themselves, and develop a love for learning. I believe every child is unique, so I tailor my approach to meet each student's individual needs, helping them grow socially, emotionally, and academically. Teaching values like kindness, respect, and teamwork is important to me because they help build strong character. I also enjoy working with families to create a supportive community for the children's educational journey. With nearly two decades of experience, I bring creativity, patience, and a deep passion for shaping the leaders of tomorrow, making every classroom moment meaningful and memorable.

Suman Karki
Hi, I am Suman Karki. Born into an educated, middle-class family as the eldest of three siblings, I was raised with strong values of discipline, responsibility, and care, deeply rooted in ethics. Though I graduated from a prestigious university in India, I chose to spend my early adult years raising my two beautiful daughters. During this time, I developed a natural ability to nurture, and support their learning, and strike the right balance between fun and education while guiding them toward respect and discipline. This dedication earned me a reputation as the go-to mom among family and friends, who frequently sought my advice and guidance. While becoming a kindergarten teacher wasn’t initially part of my plan, it turned out to be the perfect fit, aligning with my passion for children’s growth and development. Joining Fifi’s Creative Kids Center allowed me to apply my skills and experience in the ideal setting, fulfilling everything I had envisioned. Despite the inevitable challenges, the joy of seeing the children’s smiling faces always lifts my spirits. I find great fulfillment in helping them learn and grow, and in turn, I’ve learned invaluable lessons from them as well.

Sayyad Nowroozi
Hi, I’m Sayyad! I’ve been passionate about music since I was 12, particularly playing the guitar and piano. Music has always been a creative outlet for me and something I deeply enjoy. Currently, I’m balancing high school with a part-time job at the preschool I graduated from years ago. It’s been such a fulfilling experience to return to a place that played such an important role in my childhood, giving me a real sense of connection and belonging. Working with kids is something I truly love. I enjoy seeing their curiosity and creativity unfold, and it’s incredibly rewarding to be a part of their growth. It’s a privilege to make even a small difference in their lives, just as others did for me when I was their age.
