Owner
Hello. My name is Shilpa Dalal and I am the owner of Lil’ Angels Family Daycare. I have been happily married to my husband Harin for 26 years. I have two wonderful daughters, Mansi 25 yrs old and Disha 20 yrs old. I enjoy being with children and have absolutely enjoyed raising my two daughters.
A lil’ about my background
I was born and raised in Bombay, India, where I used to teach in elementary school. Being a professional mehndi artist I also took up mehndi orders and later joined my husband’s business after marriage. After our move to the US, I spent most of my time with my children. As they grew a lil’ older, I decided to take up mehndi orders and also did a course in skincare and became a licensed esthetician. I worked independently for a few years until I decided to venture into the daycare field.
I enjoy cooking different type of cuisines and have also done a course in baking. Over the weekends, I enjoy running along with my husband and together we participate in marathons with Team Asha.
How did Lil’ Angels come about
Prior to the daycare, I volunteered a few times at the Sunnyvale community center to look after children with special needs. During my short stint at the center, I developed a strong affinity for taking care of children. The joy that I received while working with the children was mentally and emotionally satisfying and rewarding. That’s when I decided that my next venture would be working with children because I enjoyed doing so.
