I have been blessed with 37 wonderful years of classroom experience in early childhood education! Throughout the years, I’ve had the joy of teaching, nurturing, and watching countless children learn and grow. Being part of their early learning experiences has been such a rewarding part of my life!

I love being part of each child’s early learning experience and watching them learn, grow, and discover new things! It brings me so much joy to see their excitement as they develop new skills, build confidence, and celebrate their accomplishments, both big and small!

One of my favorite children’s books is The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle! I love its colorful illustrations and the fun way it teaches children about counting, the days of the week, and the amazing transformation of a caterpillar into a butterfly!

I believe every child deserves a loving, safe, and nurturing environment where they feel valued, supported, and encouraged to learn and grow. When children feel loved and secure, they gain the confidence to explore, try new things, and be themselves!

I love leading fun gross motor activities that get children moving, playing, and learning!

I hope the children always remember the love, kindness, and care they received while in our classroom. Most of all, I want them to remember feeling safe, happy, and special each day!

When I was 20 years old, I had the exciting experience of rappelling down a mountain! It was quite an adventure and something I’ll always remember!

When I’m not in the classroom, I enjoy staying active by going to the gym, spending quiet time studying my Bible, and making special memories with my family. These are some of my favorite ways to relax, recharge, and enjoy the things that mean the most to me!

I’m most excited about being part of each child’s learning experience, watching them discover new things, build confidence, and grow throughout the school year!
