My Preschool House

I have been teaching preschool in my home for the past ten years and I love it!  I have tried very hard to provide a safe, loving, nurturing environment for the children that come to my school.  Unlike most in-home preschools, I am licensed and insured.  I have city and state guidelines that I follow to make sure that your children are well taken care of while they are with me.  Licensed preschools are held to a higher standard and I am proud to say that my school meets and exceeds their requirements.  Along with my Degree in Early Childhood Education, I am CPR and First Aid Certified and I have my food handlers permit. We just moved into our new home that we had designed around my preschool. The school itself is 510 square feet of pure fun! I would love to meet you and have you see the school in person. 

The Classroom

There is not really a specific program I use with my school. I have studied and taught many different curriculum's f rom Montessori to traditional. I have taken what I like about each theory and put them together to what I have seen works best. I have a center based preschool. Each day the children are free to choose what interests them whether it be science, math, writing, dramatic play, or art. Although I do encourage them to try everything, each center provides a learning rich activity for the child. We have Circle time together where we sing songs and talk together about the theme for the week.  Please call if you would like to come see the school.

About Me

Maria Montessori, an early childhood education pioneer and philosopher once said “Play is a Child’s Work.” I fully believe this theory. Children learn by leaps and bounds when we supply a knowledge-rich, fun, and loving environment in which the teacher provides structure, meaning and support for learning. I have been teaching for 18 years. I graduated from UVSC (now UVU ) in December of 2000 with my degree in Early Childhood Education. I have taught Kindergarten, Directed a few Preschools and also worked as Head Preschool teacher. I love the age of children between 3 and 6. They are so excited about learning, they make new discoveries each day that might seem simple to us adults but amaze these little ones. I love being a part of that process. I am a mother of three. I have a 16 year old, a 13 year old and a 10 year old. My children are the love of my life. They keep me going and make me smile every day. I have been married to my best friend for 20 years now and am so g...

Curriculum

I believe that children learn the best through play. It is my responsibility as a teacher to provide a learning rich enviornment. I have a center based preschool, meaning that I will provide different areas in the classroom to help children explore and discover their world at their own pace and in their own intrests. Centers include: Art, Science, Math, Dramatic Play, Writing & Literacy, Gross Motor, and Blocks & Building. While the children are encouraged to explore all areas, try new things, and take turns, they can spend the majority of their time doing what they find interesting to them. Basic overview of my school: Each week will will focus on a theme that is relevant to the children and the world around them. We will have a color of the month where one day a week we will have a wear and share day where the children can wear the color of the month and bring something into school to "show and tell" with the other children. Each week we will focus on a letter of ...
