Staff
We require our teachers to hold a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Development or Elementary Education and also to be certified in CPR and first aid. In addition, the teachers pursue continued educational growth through attendance at relevant workshops and conferences. The result: highly qualified, professional teachers that are dedicated and caring.
