  "I believe that children learn best through play, such as physical play, play with objects, loose parts, symbolic play, or socio-dramatic play. Play is an instrument for the development of senses, the exercise of judgement through sensory experiences and contact with things. When children are playing, they learn about their intellectual level, physical abilities, their behaviors, and their socio-emotional interactions. While playing, they show what they know, understand, and what they can realize. Play is a connector between social development and development of a whole child. It improves communication, social problem solving, turn taking, and negotiation skills. Play makes learning something that happens naturally and joyfully, and when children laugh and wonder, explore and imagine, they learn to process and to construct meaning about the world around them, creating their knowledge and learning."

My love for children is a force that inspire me, a gift that fills my heart with joy. As an educator the most rewarding part of my day is to play alongside the children. I love seeing their natural curiosity and creativity emerge as they explore the world, and I find profound joy in being a part of their discoveries. I love observing children build worlds with blocks, act out roles in pretend kitchen, pretend being "mommy" and "daddy." In these moments, I see critical thinking, communication, and social skills flourishing organically. Being a playful participant in their learning journey is an incredible privilege. I love the moments of shared laughter and the quite revelations that happen when we're fully engaged in an activity. These experiences build a foundation of trust and respect, and that is a bond I cherish with each of my children at Expanding Imaginations Childcare.

As an early childhood educator, I help to guide children so that they can become the best versions of themselves as they grow and mature. In a child’s early years, they need to be able to rely on consistency of care and form bonds of trust with educators, and families depend on us to be positive role models for their children. I have a passion for working with children and I want to be able to nurture their development as much as possible to help them become capable citizens of their community.
