Chloe Templeton

Management | State-certified specialist | Montessori diploma | English (native speaker)

Hello, I'm Chloe Templeton. I grew up in sunny Queensland, Australia, and moved to Germany in 2010. Since then, I've worked in bilingual childcare with children aged 6 months to 6 years. I have a son who enriches my life immensely, and I enjoy practicing yoga. I've also completed my children's yoga certification. I've been part of the Lilli & Lori team since 2017. In 2020, I completed my AMI Casa dei Bambini Montessori qualification. Montessori pedagogy greatly influences my daily work. With creativity, patience, and lots of love, I guide the children and contribute to a warm, nurturing atmosphere in the kindergarten. "The child is truly a wonderful being, and this should be deeply felt by the educator."

Adam Fish

Commercial & Administrative Management | Bachelor of Psychology | Bachelor of Finance & Law | English (Native Speaker) & German

Hello, my name is Adam Fish. I was born and raised in Western Australia and moved to Germany in 2011. Today, I live in Munich with my family and am a proud father of a little girl. My academic background is diverse, combining psychology, finance, and law. Over the past few years, I've held various management and leadership positions. At Lilli & Lori, I handle the commercial, administrative, and organizational aspects and support our team wherever I can. Although much of my work takes place behind the scenes, I love being around children and am happy to be part of daily life at Lilli & Lori. Since becoming a father myself, this has become even more special for me. I find it wonderful to experience the children's diverse personalities, see their curiosity, and watch them discover something new every day. What I particularly appreciate about Lilli & Lori is the warm and personal atmosphere and the close-knit community between the children, parents, and our team. For me, this is exactly what makes a preschool a special place for children and families.

My many years of experience allow me to provide the children with a stable and trusting foundation for their further education.

Susi Beiderbeck

Montesssori Diploma Training | Masters Degree in Political Science | Career Changer| German

Hello, I'm Susi. My passion for working with children began early. During my studies, I lived in Cairo as an au pair and also worked in a kindergarten there. Later, I taught German as a foreign language to children at the Goethe-Institut in Tanzania. These experiences profoundly shaped my enjoyment of different cultures and learning together with children. I have a master's degree in political science and worked in marketing and communications for several years.

In my family, we speak three languages – German, English, and Spanish – which I find incredibly enriching. Today, I live with my family in Oberhaching and have two children who brighten my life every day. I'm currently completing my Montessori diploma at the Biberkor Academy and am very much looking forward to supporting the team in the area of German language instruction.
