Our Team

Comprising educators with extensive experience in early childhood education, our team is dedicated to ongoing professional development and staying current with industry trends. All educators and leaders prioritize respecting each child’s learning style and individual achievements.

Our educators are trained in Conscious Discipline, an evidence-based program by Dr. Becky A. Bailey. This approach empowers adults to handle daily conflicts consciously, transforming them into opportunities for teaching essential life skills to children.
