Our Teachers

As an experienced early childcare teacher with over 20 years of dedicated service, I bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise to nurturing and educating young minds. My educational background in psychology provides me with a deep understanding of child development and behavior, while my Child Development Associate certificate ensures that I am well-versed in best practices for early childhood education.

On a personal note, I am a proud parent of three grown children and come from a military family, instilling in me values of discipline, resilience, and adaptability. Outside of the classroom, I have a passion for dogs, enjoying their loyal companionship and playful nature. I also find joy in tackling household projects, finding satisfaction in creating a warm and welcoming home environment.

In my free time, you can often find me practicing yoga to center my mind and body, capturing beautiful moments through photography, diving into a good book to expand my knowledge, or exploring the great outdoors to reconnect with nature and find inspiration. My diverse interests and experiences outside of work enrich my teaching practice and allow me to bring a well-rounded perspective to my interactions with children and families.

I will supply an atmosphere that embraces children’s love of learning and encourage creativity as parents, and I work together to provide an educational and balanced approach to learning.
