I have been teaching preschool since 2014. I have a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and a minor in early childhood. I chose to teach Preschool because I love working with the littles who are full of energy, enthusiasm and the readiness to learn and explore. I want to be a part of their foundation, providing them with experiences and opportunities that they can build on for years to come.
