Every great institution begins with a vision. The Rangoli Preschool story is one of passion, perseverance, and an unwavering commitment to revolutionizing early childhood education in Gujarat. From a single centre in Vadodara to becoming recognized as the Best Pre Primary School in Gujarat with 50+ thriving locations, our journey reflects the trust thousands of parents have placed in us.
This is the story of how Rangoli evolved from a dream into Gujarat’s most awarded preschool chain, touching the lives of thousands of children and continuing to set new standards in early childhood education in Gujarat.
The Beginning: A Vision Born from Passion
Mr. Prahar Anjaria and Mrs. Anamika Anjaria founded Pratham Educare Private Limited with a clear mission: to bring meaningful change to the existing education system. Both educationists at heart, they recognized a critical gap in Gujarat’s early childhood education landscape, the absence of consistently high-quality, research-based preschool programs accessible across urban and semi-urban areas.
Mr. Anjaria, an engineer who left a successful corporate career at a Fortune 500 company, and Mrs. Anjaria, holding master’s degrees in both English and Gujarati literature with extensive teaching experience, combined their expertise to create something truly special.
The first Rangoli Preschool opened its doors in Vadodara, embodying their philosophy that education should be joyful, activity-based, and centred on holistic child development. The name “Rangoli” itself, representing colourful, creative patterns, perfectly captured their vision of making learning a vibrant, engaging experience.
Building the Foundation
The early years focused on perfecting the Rangoli model. Every aspect, from curriculum design to teacher training protocols, infrastructure standards to parent communication systems, was carefully developed and refined based on real-world feedback and educational research.
Creating the Award-Winning Curriculum
Rangoli’s curriculum was built on the principle that children learn best through play and exploration. The team developed age-specific programs:
- Toddler Care (2 years): Focusing on sensory exploration and object identification
- Nursery (3 years): Emphasizing activity-based learning and pre-writing readiness
- Jr. KG (4 years): Developing language skills and environmental awareness
- Sr. KG (5 years): Building reading, writing, and primary school readiness
This research-based approach prioritized comprehensive development, cognitive, social, emotional, physical, creative, and moral, setting Rangoli apart as a top preschool in Gujarat.
The Franchise Model: Democratizing Quality Education
Rangoli launched its franchise model with a revolutionary approach. Rather than simply selling brand rights, Rangoli committed to comprehensive partner support through what they termed the CQSH Matrix, Curriculum, Quality, Support, and Holistic approach.
This model ensured that every Rangoli centre, regardless of location, maintained identical quality standards through extensive training, regular audits, ongoing curriculum updates, and continuous operational guidance.
Expansion and Recognition
The franchise model’s success exceeded expectations. Parents across Gujarat responded enthusiastically to Rangoli’s philosophy, and entrepreneurs recognized the value of partnering with a brand committed to genuine support rather than just brand licensing.
Growing Footprint Across Gujarat
Rangoli expanded strategically across Gujarat’s major cities and emerging towns:
- Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Gandhinagar, and Surat became strongholds with multiple centres
- Smaller cities like Mahisagar, Sidhpur, and Mehsana welcomed Rangoli preschools
- Semi-urban areas gained access to quality Play Based Learning in Gujarat through the franchise network
Rangoli operates 50+ centres, establishing itself firmly as a trusted preschool in Gandhinagar and throughout Gujarat.
Awards and Industry Recognition
The education community took notice of Rangoli’s innovative approach and consistent quality. Awards and recognitions poured in:

These accolades validated Rangoli’s commitment to raising standards in early childhood education and reinforced parent confidence in choosing Rangoli for preschool admission in Gujarat.
Innovation and Adaptation
The period from 2020 onward tested every educational institution’s resilience and adaptability. Rangoli not only navigated these challenges but also emerged stronger through innovation.
Digital Integration: The Rangoli App
Understanding modern parents’ need for transparency and involvement, Rangoli launched a comprehensive mobile application featuring:
- Real-time attendance tracking and updates
- Daily activity reports and photo sharing
- Homework assignments and curriculum-based activities
- Digital rhymes, stories, and educational games
- Direct communication channels with teachers
This technology integration strengthened the home-school connection, making parents active participants in their child’s developmental journey.
Leadership Development Programs
Rangoli introduced the Leadership Forum, annual workshops for franchise partners and centre heads covering business management, educational leadership, and soft skills. This initiative created a community of educators committed to continuous improvement and excellence.
