Maria

Early Childhood Educator

I enjoy working at Jitterbugs because it's a very comfortable environment to work. The staff are very warm and tight-knit. It genuinely feels like a second family.

I am passionate about teaching music to the children at Jitterbugs. It gives me joy to be able to provide the same happiness that music gives me.

Early Childhood Educator

Manager

Jitterbugs makes my soul come alive through daily interactions with children and families. I am proud that Jitterbugs is a happy, fun, safe learning environment for healthy growth to flourish.

I am privileged to work alongside talented educators that love and care for children as I do.

I am passionate about offering children opportunities for extraordinary learning through what appears to be simple fun, although underneath lies layers of education. The true magic of childhood is evident as we have fun, play, and celebrate each developmental milestone they accomplish.

Lianne

Infant Toddler Educator

I enjoy working at Jitterbugs because I love the small community that we create with each individual family. I love watching the children succeed as they explore each and every day.

We build quality relationships with the children and their families. I love to create a safe and loving bond with all the children as relationships are important to me.

I am very passionate about the play based environment, exploring through senses and play is so important and educational. I love to prepare developmentally appropriate activities for each child, and allowing them access to the materials that they want day to day like play dough, paints and drawing materials!

Jaclyn

Infant Toddler Educator

I enjoy working at Jitterbugs because of the warm and inclusive environment, and the ability to support the families within our community.

Setting up and adding to the classroom to best serve the growing needs of the children while fostering their curiosity and facilitating their development is one of my greatest joys; children are natural born scientists and getting the chance to view the world around us through their eyes is a gift.
