Jenny’s Class Biographies and Work Schedules Jenny is married and the step-mom of a nine year old daughter
and fourteen year old son. Jenny has been working at Montessori Children’s House since 1993. Prior to Montessori Jenny
worked for two years at Prince and Princesses Preschool. Jenny received her AMI Montessori Diploma in 2003 from the St. Louis
Montessori Institute. She also has an AA degree in Early Childhood studies from Shasta College. Jenny also knows sign language
and frequently has opportunities to incorporate it into her class. One of her hobbies is riding quads. She also enjoys spending
time with family and attends a lot of family gatherings. Why Montessori? “When I first started here I found it
to be very helpful to me. I wish I had the opportunity all the children are getting; I don’t think it would have been
such a struggle for me. Now this is where my heart and soul are. I have been able to grow and blossom over the years as I
hope the children do.” Dani
grew up in the Bay Area with a large extended family. She moved to Redding in 2011 with her fiancé and plans to be
married in February 2012. She attended Cuesta College and Cal State Fresno where she earned a BA Degree in liberal studies
with an emphasis in early childhood education. Dani’s hobbies include golf, swimming, hiking and playing softball. Family
dinners, watching movies, and playing with her two black lab puppies are also favorite pastimes.
Why Montessori? “I was a student at a Montessori school from 3 to 5 years old. Those were some of the most memorable
years I have had in all my years of schooling. My parents were firm believers in the Montessori method, because they knew
how much it would prepare me for not only Kindergarten through college, but also in every aspect of daily life. When graduating
college and choosing a career path in the teaching field, my decision was easy. I chose Montessori because I love to share
the same wonderful, fun, and beneficial experience that I was so fortunate to have. I enjoy helping children develop a positive
attitude toward school and self-confidence in their learning.” |
