Meet Amy

  • Speaks English
  • Comfortable with pets

Hi Everyone! My name is Amy. Most days I am called Miss Amy as I have been teaching preschool for the past 16 years. I also have two daughters of my own; J is 20 & R is 18 and getting ready to graduate high school. I am still employed as a preschool teacher, however we are closed indefinitely due to recent covid-19 outbreak. Therefore I have a lot of availability to help families with childcare needs. I absolutely love teaching preschool! My students range in age from 3 to 5 years old. I have 14 students in my largest class, so I am pretty good at organizing and keeping a group on track! ( with help from my assistant of course) I love artwork! I am a creative person and enjoy sharing that experience with children. I enjoy creating activities that engage young minds! I am pretty great at Read more thinking outside the box to accommodate the different types of needs that a child may have. Please know that any position I accept would be with the understanding that I would be returning to my teaching position once we are allowed to resume classes. Sincerely, Miss Amy
