Katlyn Swiston - Supervisor, Registered Early Childhood Educator (RECE)
Working with children for the past two (2) years has been an incredible learning experience for me. I am always excited to get into the classroom and see what the children will want to explore next. The creative process and logic of a child's mind is of constant fascination to me and I often take time to watch and learn in those moments. As a mother, I understand the value of family and so I work hard to instill these values in a child's development when they are in my care.

Rebecca Brooks - Early Childhood Assistant
After graduating from Mohawk College, I worked for the Grand Erie District School Board as an Educational Assistant. Later on I went back to Mohawk and completed my second program to become a Social Service Worker. Both of the diplomas that I hold have given me great opportunities and experiences for working with children. I believe in utilizing the child-centered approach; where children are engaging, reflecting, and collaborating in their learning. I also believe that children should be active participants and create their own ideas towards learning, because every child’s educational experience is unique.

Danuta Jacula - Early Childhood Assistant & Cook
I have been working with children for over fifteen years and I always enjoy working with the educators and watching the young minds "soak" up information so eagerly. I am also the person who manages the kitchen to provide meals. My approach is "old school" and so our menu is all cooked from "scratch" and all efforts are made to ensure that meals are nutritious and flavorful. I enjoy watching children as they taste different foods for the first time and their reactions are sometimes priceless. It is very rewarding to see our babies openly demonstrate how much they enjoy their meals.
