Swarna Chandrakant is the Parent-Child teacher.

I began teaching Parent-Child classes at the Da Vinci Waldorf School in 2021. The years I have spent learning and growing here as a member of our community and faculty have enriched my family and personal life. I find a sense of purpose and fulfillment in holding the Parent-Child program. In our classes, I strive to bring nourishment to adults with poetry, discussion and craft and meet the children in their play through music and movement. It has been a joy to meet so many wonderful families and help weave a sense of community.

Outside of my role at our school, my professional background is in physical therapy. For many years I worked in hospitals with elderly patients. In recent years, I have taken up that work in a public preschool setting, so I find myself in the happy position of being inspired by little children all week long! As for my personal interests, I enjoy dabbling in fiber arts, long walks with friends, family bike rides, and listening to poems and well-spoken words.
