Congratulations Jaymi!

What did parents have to say about Jaymi?  

  • My child is no longer bored – he is full of happiness – talking more and playing with others…this is a radical change from his past care

  • Jaymi brings “real world” experiences to the children – bringing different guests to talk about what they do for a living and taking community trips

  • Jaymi creates a warm, nurturing classroom environment where every child feels valued and supported – her ability to adapt lessons to meet the needs of diverse learners has helped every child thrive academically and personally

  • ​Jaymi creates a monthly calendar that includes weekly themes, engaging activities, and coordinated lessons...her outstanding organization and communication skills make it easy for parents to stay connected and excited about what’s happening in the classroom
