About Me:



I am a young professional educator looking to further my career and to achieve my dreams. I come from a large family so becoming a teacher came natural to me. I am a life long learner and caring for and teaching children is my passion. While attending college, I worked at an amazing preschool and that was when I realized that I wanted to own my own preschool someday. I graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2008 but immediately returned to school and completed my M.ED (Masters of Education) in 2011. While attending graduate school I worked in Apopka, Florida as a Kindergarten teacher and at a preschool during summer breaks as a VPK teacher. Over the past five years, I have been a classroom teacher for grades Pre-K, K, 1, and 3. This past school year, I was given the opportunity to teach all grade levels (K-12) as an ELL (English Language Learner) teacher. I am a certified teacher in Florida, Missouri, and my Georgia certification is in progress. I have been blessed with some amazing experiences and I can 't wait to see what the future holds.



My Promise:

As your child 's teacher and caregiver, I promise to be so much more than JUST a childcare provider but to consistently go above and beyond to provide new, fun, and, exciting ways for your child to learn. My goal is to lay the foundation for a life long love of learning.



Curriculum:

In today 's world there seems to be ALL play or NO play at all. I believe in a curriculum that allows children to learn through play and to development their creativity and self-expression through structured and free play opportunities. This unique approach allows children to develop a natural curiosity about the world. My specially designed curriculum uses a mixture of philosophies from, Beyond Centers and Circle Time and the Montessori approach. I believe by mixing these two philosophies I am teaching the whole child and I am teaching children how to grow into successful citizens.



What to Expect:
*A weekly themed lesson plan differentiated to your child that includes the following skills: social development, gross motor, reading readiness, music/movement, math, and art/writing
*A monthly newsletter highlighting special activities, what 's to come, and useful ideas/tips for academically preparing your child
*Daily progress note
*Breakfast, Lunch, and two snacks will be provided for full time programs. If your child requires special foods please bring them.
*A teacher who will put her all into everything she does to enjoy her day, so that your child will too.
*A professional childcare provider that you can trust and depend on to create a safe, loving, nurturing, healthy, and caring learning environment.
