Faculty & Staff

Our compassionate, Montessori trained staff take seriously our responsibility as guides, caretakers, educators, and companions — it is an honor and a joy to spend our days with the children.
We appreciate the unique capabilities and creativity of each child, and strive to provide a loving, encouraging, and safe environment in which they can play, learn, and thrive.
