Summary

Being in the field for over 10 years I have a strong passion for early childhood education. I pride myself on having a positive friendly attitude.

I am motivated to help children develop social, academic and creative abilities to foster well-being and progress. As I have been room leader for several years I am well versed in developmental milestones and activities to promote curiosity and engagement.
