Beyond the Bell

Our Teachers

Greetings, I’m Mrs. Cook, the Director of Beyond the Bell Preschool. I am a University of Michigan-Dearborn alumna, holding a Master’s degree in Early Childcare Education with a focus on Administration and Leadership. With over 10 years of experience in various educational settings, I fulfilled a long-held dream by transitioning from operating a successful summer program to opening my in-home childcare program full-time.

What I cherish most about my work is building meaningful relationships with the children and families I serve. I firmly believe in the power of small class sizes and the development of a strong community. This approach allows my team and me to truly understand each child as an individual, providing a solid and supportive foundation during their early years. It’s a joy to witness the growth and development of each child in our care.

Thank you for considering Beyond the Bell Preschool for your child’s educational journey. I’m excited about the opportunity to be a part of their early learning experiences!
