Hi, I’m Heli. I am a passionate and enthusiastic educator with over 10 years of experience. Working with children has always been a joy for me as I can be a part of their learning journey by encouraging them to shine through their own unique characteristics.

As a committed early childhood educator with a diploma, I've worked with kids of all ages since 2012. I strongly believe in every child's entitlement to excellent education and care from infancy.

Hello, I'm Naz, a childcare educator with 7 years of experience and a Spanish language bachelor's degree. Completing my childcare education diploma in 2019, I value each child's individuality, committed to nurturing their strengths and interests. I believe in playful learning experiences, offering ample opportunities for exploration and imagination. Cultural diversity is integral to my teaching philosophy, guiding children to celebrate differences. Prioritizing security and trust, especially with younger children, I aim to create consistently safe, engaging, and positive learning environments. My goal is to facilitate ongoing growth and development through these environments.

Hi, I'm Joy, and I've been working with children for 7 years now. I love helping kids express their emotions and feel connected wherever they are - whether it's at school, home, or in the community. My goal is to support them in becoming their best selves. One project I organized that I'm really proud of is a self-regulation activity for toddlers and preschoolers. We created a special space where they could understand and manage their feelings. I'm excited to get to know each of you and make wonderful memories with the children!
