What do you want people to know about your teaching philosophy?
I believe in providing a safe and inviting space for children to play and learn. Not only do I create this for the children under my watch, but for the student staff that come into my classroom. Harboring meaningful connections between staff and the children is our main goal.

Why do you find the work you do important?
Assisting in the development of young minds is a very rewarding experience. Children want to learn everything they do not understand and it is important to teach them how to take on strong emotions. Once a child can master their feelings they can learn anything.

Anything else you'd like to share?
I am devoted to all children and their families. Each child is special in their own way and I help them continue to build their special.
