Chandamama Play School

If you go down to Door No 12-5-350 in Anantapur, you'll see Chandamama Play School. It’s a small place, mostly filled with the noise of kids running around. We’ve got toys that have seen better days and walls that have a few crayon marks here and there. That’s just what happens when you have little ones around all day. The street outside is usually quiet, except when parents are dropping off their children in the morning. We spend a lot of our time making sure nobody falls over or loses their lunch box. It’s a bit chaotic, but in a good way. We aren't a fancy franchise with shiny new equipment every month. We use what we have. Most of the staff are locals who live just a few blocks away. We know the families in 515001 quite well. Sometimes we sit out front when the kids are napping and just watch the day go by. It’s a simple life. We don’t have a big philosophy or a glossy manual. We just look after the kids while their parents are at work. There’s a bit of a garden out back where they play, and we try to keep the plants alive despite the heat. It’s a local spot for local kids. Nothing more to it than that. We just show up, open the gates, and start the day. It gets noisy but it’s a good kind of noise to have around.
