Nishant and Ranju Gupta are the owner-operators of the Celebree School of North Potomac. Nishant and Ranju are both Maryland natives, and are proud University of Maryland, College Park graduates (go Terps!). Upon graduation, Nishant gained his MBA and worked for many years in the corporate business arena while Ranju furthered her education to pursue a career in dentistry.
In 2015, Nishant and Ranju got married and a few years later, decided it was time to grow their family. They welcomed their daughters in 2019 and 2020. After having two daughters of their own, they have come to appreciate the importance of early childhood education and the impact of a stable “community” really hits home. Their daughters have quickly become the inspiration behind their Celebree school. They strive to create a safe space for families where everyone feels welcomed and supported, all while creating an environment “to protect educate and nurture.”
Nishant and Ranju have deep roots in Montgomery County and hope to continue that tradition as they raise their daughters. They’ve always envisioned raising and educating their family in Montgomery County, all while continuing to pursue their own career goals. As Montgomery County continues to grow with young, working families, they recognize and understand that there are many parents in similar situations. Nishant and Ranju’s goal is to provide families with an early education experience and childcare program that is based on proven educational methods delivered by well-trained teachers all conveniently located in the heart of Montgomery County.
Nishant will be actively involved in all operations of Celebree School of North Potomac and is thrilled to be able to utilize both his personal and professional background to serve local families and promote a healthy, safe and FUN environment for children and adults alike. As parents of little ones, Nishant and Ranju firmly believe there is nothing more important than family; and, at Celebree School of North Potomac, we strive to make our entire community feel at home.
Ranju will continue her career as a dentist in Montgomery County. Although you may not see her daily, her office is only a few miles away and she will be in for a lot of surprise visits! She will also be very involved behind the scenes helping to maintain our connection to the community and our Celebree family!
In their spare time, Nishant and Ranju enjoy just being with their family. They are lucky to have a lot of family close by- so free time is usually filled with a lot of great food, family time and ALOT of laughs.
See you soon!
