"It's not how big the house is, it's how happy the home is" -Unknown

When I chose to enter the Early Childhood Field I knew that my future students would always hold a place in my heart. I have been working with children for about seven years and have been inspired by so many. It is fascinating that I am able to watch students grow in such short period of time and hit so many developmental milestones. The first five years of a child's life are critical for long-term success and that is why it is so important that us educators have the resources and knowledge to help all students. The relationships I have built with families and their children are unique in there own way. Each child and family has a different dynamic and parents also play a key role in their child's success. Teaching our parents about bridging the gap between school and home can really improve a student’s success in the classroom. I look forward to getting back in a classroom and getting to know new children who I am able to help during the time spent in my classroom. Early childhood is my passion and by going for my M.S. gives me the skills, knowledge, and expertise to truly make a difference in my future student's lives.
