Everything we do at Day Early Learning is aimed at nurturing each child’s social, emotional and educational needs. Our ultimate goal is not only to prepare your child for kindergarten, but also to inspire a lifelong learning journey. Well-educated and trained teachers ensure that your child will be in the best hands possible.

What was the last moment that caused you to stop and remember why you love teaching and working with children?
I am reminded daily why I love working with children. I do, however, have a special love for those moments when I am not feeling my full self in the classroom and, without discussing, my friends can sense this and offer me a hug. The purity and developing empathy of a preschooler is inspiring.

Other than the kids, I thoroughly enjoy working for a company that is so inclusive and genuine. Specifically, I am so happy to be in a center full of amazing women who treat each other as family, rather than just coworkers.
