A postgraduate and a trained teacher, Bandana’s childhood was deeply steeped in literary and visual arts and crafts, both at school and home. She attributes her unrelenting quest for knowing and creating to the encouraging yet undemanding home environment.
As a teacher, she invested her entire career in evolving as an educator with the mission of making education a lively and happy experience for children everywhere. Taking the next organic step forward she co-founded SHISHYAA, a Waldorf Inspired School in Navi Mumbai, India based on the wisdom and philosophy of Dr. Rudolf Steiner.

She works on their imagination through imagery, making each little poem a joy to sing and remember. Her deep observation and understanding of children and their emotional needs lends itself to the style of the poems she pens.
