"My passion and love for children goes above and beyond. My experience with children taught me how extremely important a child’s early childhood development is and how desperately todays children, in a world filled with technology, require free play to grow their physical, emotional, social and fine motor development. I will never stop learning from these precious children and I will never stop researching, observing and improving my method of teaching and sharing this knowledge with my staff."
