I've lived in Kelowna for most of my life, attending elementary, middle, and high school here. I’ve raised my children in the same community, even sending them to the same schools I attended. I was very fortunate to be able to stay home and raise our three children, and when it was time for me to pursue a career, I chose early childhood education. I knew it was something I was skilled at and enjoyed, and I wanted to become the kind of childcare provider I would have wanted for my own children.

Over the past three years in this sector, I’ve had the privilege of watching children grow by providing them with a safe, educational, and playful environment where they learn something new each day. I strongly believe that children and their families deserve support, regardless of race, nationality, religion, age, or physical appearance. As a childcare provider, I’m committed to creating a space where children always feel safe, loved, and free to have fun.
