INAE is a preschool rooted in inquiry-based learning, located in Kotturpuram, Chennai. We serve children ages 1–4 through a globally integrated curriculum that blends Reggio Emilia, Montessori, and social-emotional learning.
We are looking for someone who genuinely loves this age group and wants to build a career in early childhood education — with the patience, warmth, and humility it takes to grow.
