Bio

I graduated in early learning WAY back in 1981 - yes, I'm a dinosaur! But unlike the dinosaurs, I'm still thriving and enjoying every moment with the children in my care.

My diplomas are both in Montessori - one is at the preschool level and the other is for elementary up to Grade 6. I have over 40 years of experience, mostly with preschool. I am a permanent level 3 in Yukon Territory.

I promised myself that I would retire if I ever woke up one morning and wasn't excited about seeing the children and finding out what they're thinking today. That day has never come, and I remain as committed and energetic as ever in my work!
