My favorite thing about ECFE is:
Early Childhood Teacher My favorite thing about ECFE is the family component. I love getting to know my children but also their families and developing a relationship that we can work as a team for everybody to succeed.
Something about me is:
Something about me is that I grew up outdoors fishing hunting snowmobiling four wheeling! If it was outside I did it! I love the outdoors! Currently our favorite outdoor activity Is the beach to beat the heat!
Something funny a child told me/ did is:
Ultimately my favorite thing that I will never forget was when a little girl told me one of my first years teaching that her mom couldn’t have another baby because she was allergic to babies. Dad‘s face turned bright red as he explained they were done having babies and that was what they told her daughter.
Early Childhood Teacher I have many things that make work not seem like work. I love meeting new families and learning more about them through time. I like being able to utilize my creativity through flexible scheduling, creating different courses and activities. I appreciate being surrounded by a caring, supportive and resourceful group of professional people.
Something funny a child told me/ did is:
During Circle TIme we will often sing a song known as Look Through the Window. The children hold a picture frame to their face as a welcome and name to face familiarity game. The best Christmas card winner was a child holding a potty chair to their charming little face while, “looking through the window.” Many hilarious things come from the simple conversations at the snack table, now known as...snack table confessions of the family. With Love, Your Children.

Early Childhood Teacher My favorite thing about ECFE is: The daily connections I get to make with children and their parents. My favorite thing about working with young children is: Teaching them to grow; socially and emotionally! They come in as little caterpillars, and they leave as these great big butterflies, It’s so amazing to see all of their development. Something I have learned working at ECFE is: I have learned to adapt to different situations, every child and parent have unique needs and wants out of our program, and I’m here to give you that!
