Pooja Pathak, Office Manager
My name is Pooja Pathak, and my goal is to help bring quality childcare to families within our communities. Life is always changing, so we must do our part to learn and take action to support one another. This is what I have embodied within my career within various organizations and teams.
My career started in laboratory life sciences within global pharmaceutical companies. However, as I learned more about health equity, I branched out and became incredibly passionate about community welfare and public health. This led me to opportunities where I engaged with my community and colleagues through volunteering for various charitable, social, and educational events. I am passionate about people, so I took the next step in my career journey with Oliver’s Nannies because I wanted to step into a people focused leadership role.
I believe in connecting with people through power of storytelling. Growing up in Princeton has both allowed me to share my story as well as learn about the stories of people within our New Jersey communities and beyond. My mission is to continue Oliver Nannies goal to connect more families with childcare professionals.
