OUR TEAM

Here to serve.

In addition to our early childhood education and training, the Lord has given each of us gifts that we faithfully use to serve you and your family.  We have given a brief description of these gifts, the favourite part of our day here and have shared our favourite scripture with you.

INFANT CARE

Christine Alexis

What I truly enjoy about my time with the children is watching their eyes light up when they have learned something new and the big smiles.

Monalyn Rarama

Seeing the children's smiles as they come running to give me a hug when I come to work every morning is one of the favourite parts of my day.  The joy the children have when I see them sing and play throughout the day warms my heart. For me, working with children is a great responsibility and blessing.

I use my gift of teaching to serve here. The favourite part of my day is when children explore with the toys set up during the day, making creations, shapes and movements of all sorts using their imagination.  I love how they learn through experiments and exploration and asking how things work.

My favorite time of day with the kids is in the morning. It really brightens my day seeing them. I feel more grateful as I listen to the children's prayers to God in the morning.

My favourite part of the day is greeting the children in the morning; but also, in the planning of activities and crafts for the children and helping them grown in God's love.

Jessica Sotana

My favourite thing about working with the kids is that I get to build relationships with them and love them as if they were my own.

My favorite part of the day is gathering time! I love gathering the children together to share stories,and engage in conversations that spark their curiosity and imagination. It's a special time to bond with the children, observe their growth, and witness the formation of friendships.
