About the store

30+ years experience includes student teaching at a university preschool and a high school, teaching middle school students in a summer school program, teaching high school students for 5 years. This included teaching those students how to run a preschool with 18 preschoolers. I also developed and supervised a vocational internship program, where high school students taught in community preschools and kindergartens. For 27 years I have owned my own preschool and have taught over 1,000 students over the years. I have also worked extensively with children in church, scouting, and as a volunteer in the public schools. I am a mom to 5 children and a grandmother to 14!

Experience

Teaching style

I love children! I believe the most important things we can do for them is to instill in them a love of learning, confidence to follow their dreams, and a knowledge that they are loved and important! My preschool teaching style is in line with these values. I believe children need order and predictability in their lives to feel safe and confident, so I do follow a regular schedule, that we modify at times for various activities. I encourage independence and creativity, as well, and feel that children are much smarter and more capable than we often believe! My goal as a preschool teacher is to give them a positive first experience with school!
