Hello families, I am Ms.Aire and I am so grateful to be part of this team ! I started my childcare journey in 2020 right out of high school and have had a passion for this field ever since! I believe it is so important when a child comes to school that they feel they are in a safe space and a similar, comfortable environment that they would at home ! With that said children will always feel love and support when I’m in the classroom ! It’s my belief that with the necessary support your child will exceed expectations and blossom into a bright student for all their future teachers and peers !
I’m an active individual that loves to spend a lot of my time outside on runs or roller blading around the city.
I’ve been involved in childcare for a couple years now and try to incorporate physical health into the school day and also a lot of imaginary play.
I love to connect with the children and knowing their personal interests/ passions and try to incorporate that into our school day!
I look forward to meeting and forming great relationships with our families!
