Our Team
Shirley Calabrese
Hello, I'm Shirley! I have studied Early Childhood Education since High School and worked with children in many different settings!I have worked as a Nanny, substitute teacher (both in childcare centers and public schools), After School Program and an assistant preschool teacher.
I enjoy working with families the most because the education provided and relationships created are more personal. I'm also a certified substitute teacher and I enjoy being able to work with school age children. Additionally, I'm First Aid and CPR certified for infants, children and adults.
Kathleen Thompson
Hello, I'm Kathleen Thompson. Throughout my twenty plus years of work experience, I have worked with in variety of settings doing administrative work.
I believe that all children want to learn, and can learn through early education. I also believe, that the journey for the love of learning starts with early education and hands on experience. Together, we can provide these tools in which the children can take with them throughout their journey of learning.

Hi, I'm Steven. I love computers and teaching others about computers. My favorite thing about the computer, is that it's a tool that will forever be in our lives!
I love teaching others about computers, because everyone deserves to know more about the technology that is currently the ground work for the future!
Lelia Shellow
Hello, my name is Lelia Shellow. I have a B.A. in Psychology, and have taken many classes that had a focus on early childhood and adolescence.
I believe early childhood education can help define the relationship in which children learn, and how they view learning. It is important to create positive learning experiences, that will in turn, impact a child's educational future.
