Miss Aislinn:
Miss Aislinn loves working with the wee ones! She is patient and loving and likes to see babies develop and grow while in her class. Miss Aislinn feels that working with infants and toddlers is more than "babysitting". it is providing a stimulating environment that encourages these little ones to develop utilizing all their senses. "Everything you do with infants and toddlers is a leaning experience of some kind". It is fun to watch them grow in all ways!

Miss Jessica Arts and Crafts
If you want to see Miss Jess in action you most likely will see her creative ability all over our school. Every wall that has a mural is her artwork and gift of love to the children who attend here. She lights every room up with creativity and imagination and inspires the children through a happy room environment (and yes, she does free lance work for others as well).
Miss Jess will be inspiring our students weekly with an creative arts and crafts class that will be earned by those completing their pacework! I am excited to see what will be happening in her class!
