A little bit about me

I have been the director/teacher for Little Lamb Preschool/Kindergarten in Washougal, Wa. for the past 12 years. I have recently moved to Eagle River. I enjoy being outdoors, going on “adventures” with the children in my care. I have done many years of summer camps with children. I also teach piano lessons which can be a part of our daily activities. I have worked as a paraeducator in several schools, have worked in the foster care system and have training for working with children with Autism. I love working with children of all ages.
