Muddy Boots.

Sunshine.

Fresh Air.

Welcome to Lulu Moon Academy.

We are the Shah family, and we are so grateful that you're here. Lulu Moon Academy was born from our greatest joy in life—our daughters. The name itself holds a special meaning, inspired by the middle names of our two girls, who continue to inspire everything we do.

As parents to a spirited 3½-year-old and an adventurous 10-month-old, we've spent countless hours researching, learning, and discovering what truly helps children thrive. We found ourselves drawn to a simpler approach to childhood—one rooted in connection, curiosity, nature, and meaningful experiences.

At Lulu Moon Academy, we believe childhood should be filled with muddy boots, sunshine, fresh air, imagination, and hands-on learning. Rather than focusing on worksheets and rigid academic expectations, we encourage children to learn through exploration, play, creativity, and real-life experiences. Whether we're gardening, caring for animals, exploring outdoors, preparing healthy snacks, or discovering something new together, every moment becomes an opportunity for growth.

Our program emphasizes organic and wholesome nutrition, outdoor play in all seasons whenever possible, and nurturing relationships that help children feel safe, confident, and loved. We believe children learn best through the connections they build with caring adults and the friendships they form with their peers.

Lulu Moon Academy is intentionally small, allowing us to create a warm, family-centered environment where every child is known, celebrated, and supported. Led by Usha Shah and Chandani Shah, our goal is to provide a beautiful space where children can learn, grow, and develop a lifelong love of discovery.

We are excited to open our home and our hearts to a select group of families who share our commitment to raising kind, capable, curious, and confident children.

We can't wait to welcome you to the Lulu Moon Academy family.
