A little About Me
Hi, I'm Amy.
I'm a mom of four school-aged children and the modern day Mary Poppins here at Pillow Fort Daycare. Spending my days with little ones fills my cup. Children inspire me to slow down, stay in the present moment and delight in the little things. I hold a degree in Therapeutic Recreation from Concordia University and I'm a certified Hatha Yoga instructor. I am passionate about Lifeways Early Childhood Education and I have taken several courses with Lifeways North America (Waldorf ECE). I'm also First Aid & CPR certified through the Canadian Red Cross. My favorite guiding quote: "Children are not a distraction from more important work, they are the most important work". - C.S Lewis |
