OUR STAFF

OUR STAFF

Our teachers, the cornerstone of our program, are warm, creative, enthusiastic and committed to the growth and development of every child in their care. Their qualifications exceed the standards set by National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). 
 
We’re dedicated to continuing the professional development of each of our teachers, who must complete a minimum of 20 hours of continuing education a year on topics including brain research, health and safety, special needs, and developmentally appropriate practices.

She has a strong passion for play-based education, extensive early childhood knowledge and a balance of business, classroom and administrative experience. Tammi’s own children attended GJK and she previously worked at GJK in the roles of teacher, curriculum coordinator and assistant director.
