Sunshine Room
The Sunshine Room at St. John’s Preschool is home to children are between the ages of 2-1/2 and 3 years old. Children are encouraged to explore their environment through experiential learning; they will learn to recognize and articulate their feelings as they play with friends and they will build on their prior knowledge of language and math skills as they write their name, count and sort objects and retell stories. Children attend weekly chapel and begin to learn scripture verses during daily Bible Time. Classroom lesson plans are based on our comprehensive and developmentally appropriate curriculum model which is designed to prepare them to successfully move into the next phase of their preschool journey.

I have been professionally working with children since I graduated from high school, but have been voluntarily working with them for much longer. I have known that children are my calling my whole life. From 3rd grade, I spent my recess helping the children with special needs be able to come out and interact with their typically developing peers. In high school I worked in Hemet High's preschool class as well as working in vacation bible school. After high school I was a long term nanny for two families, and I am now working in my second preschool setting. I love being able to work with children and share my love for Jesus with them. I have received an Associate's of Arts in Social/Behavioral Sciences from Mt. San Jacinto College and my Bachelor's of Arts in Early Childhood Education with an Emphasis in Special Education (Summa Cum Laude) from Vanguard University.
