My fiancé Joe and I are super excited to be new parents ourselves with our little girl. I have two dogs who I love taking for walks on the Moor in my spare time.
I enjoy working in the preschool and loved to help make the day fun for the children by planning exciting and stimulating activities for them. Watching the children develop and grow over their time at the preschool is rewarding.
