My Story
My first part-time job was working at a daycare. Instantly, I knew that working with children and their families was my passion. I took various roles working as a daycare provider, substitute teacher, respite care, and vocational care worker. As I decided on a college, I researched different career paths that allowed me to be creative and still work with children. When I shadowed an occupational therapist at a therapeutic preschool, I instantly fell in love and haven’t turned back since.
My Eyas Landing
What I love most is finding creative ways to engage, support, and encourage growth in each of our children. It goes both ways! Each and every day, I learn something new from them as well.
