Ocean Explorers Classroom Teacher

Miss Michelle discovered her love for childcare early on when she was 12 years old, by babysitting and volunteering at her Church nursery. She has continued her passion to create a positive and nurturing environment with the hope that she can instill a desire and eagerness to learn. Part of this motivation comes from her wonderful memories of her Kindergarten classroom as a child. She aspires to create the same magic she had in the classroom. Michelle has over 15 years of experience working with children of all ages. Her experience was through different types of childcare facilities such as Preschools, after school programs and she even taught English in France when she lived abroad there for 3 years. Miss Michelle knows how to get children ready for kindergarten especially through her experience as The English Kindergarten Teacher at San Diego French American School. Miss Michelle worked at St. Andrews in 2017 to 2019 she is so happy to be back at St. Andrews as this was a treasured experience for her. She is so excited to join the St. Andrews team and give excellent love and care to each student once again.
