Teachers and Staff

Teachers at The Children’s House are role models. We listen attentively and think before we speak. We consciously teach our children to be kind and courteous to one another and to treat each other and adults with respect. The child receives specifically directed encouragement rather than blanket praise — this feels more genuine to the child and fosters self-motivation and positive self-regard.

Stacey was a business professional before becoming a full-time mother. She returned to the workplace in 2007 as an assistant teacher at The Children's House.
