Meet Our Regional Director

Hager Suliman

Email: hager.suliman@kidango.org

As a Regional Director at Kidango, I strive to empower educators to create nurturing, inclusive, and high-quality learning environments where children can thrive and feel a strong sense of belonging. I am passionate about culturally responsive practices that ensure every child and family feels valued, supported, and welcome.

Throughout my career, I have served in a variety of roles, including teacher, program supervisor, and Coach Manager. I am especially passionate about early literacy, quality improvement, and supporting educators through reflection, coaching, and professional learning.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Human Development and Early Education from Pacific Oaks College and a Child Development Program Director Permit from the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing. Outside of work, I enjoy visiting museums, hiking, and spending time with my family.
