Teachers and Staff
Teachers
Our teachers are fully qualified early childhood educators and native Spanish speakers. They provide opportunities for the children to develop an understanding of self and others. Our teachers interact with our children with warmth, personal respect, individuality, positive support and responsiveness. They pay close attention to developing each child’s social skills and sustaining his/her intellectual growth, while providing the children with a variety of developmentally appropriate activities. Our teachers ensure that activities are inspired by the children and their own interests. We offer full benefits to our teachers and we have an outstanding teacher retention rate.
