Having volunteered and worked in various settings that were centered around the education of children, I can honestly say there is nothing I enjoy more than interacting with children. I find that working with children is such a breath of fresh air and to this day, it amazes and fascinates me what children come up with when I have conversations with them. Working in this field, my goal is to provide children with a loving environment that allows them to grow and unlock each of their individual potential to be the best them that they can be.

I believe that children are extremely capable and able to thrive when surrounded by a nurturing and supportive environment. I am an early childhood educator because the first few years of a child’s life is full of amazing milestones,
accomplishments, and new experiences. It is a privilege to be able to share these with the children I work with! I strive to be a positive presence in the lives of the children I work with - as much as they are a positive influence in mine. The children I work with inspire and remind me to laugh, play and wonder!

With my previous experience teaching in Vietnam, working as an Early Childhood Educator came very naturally to me. At Head Start Pre-Kinder, I found a place where I love the focus on education and how children are taught with love, discipline and respect. As a Mother, I am also very happy for my son to be a part of the
Head Start classroom.
Each day I am excited for what he will
learn and enjoy.

I am an educator because I not only adore children, but I truly believe in the importance of early learning. I believe that children learn the most of what they’re ever going to learn in the first five years of their lives, and I want to be a part of that. The astonishing thing is that every day that I spend with children is a day that I learn too, and there is nothing more beautiful than this mutual exchange of learning between both parties – children are unique and amazing; Seeing children reach their own milestones and age-appropriate skills, that will later become beneficial to them throughout their life, has always been the
most rewarding part of this career.

I believe that the early years are the most crucial in a child's development. During this period, children are incredibly curious, eager to learn, and full of potential. I want to be a part of that foundational stage, helping to nurture their growth and development. I find great joy in seeing children discover new things, achieve milestones, and grow in confidence and ability. During my practicums at Head Start, I experienced firsthand the warm and supportive environment created by the staff here. The teachers work together like a family, and their collaborative approach to education is inspiring. This positive and encouraging atmosphere not only benefits the children, but also creates a wonderful workplace for educators. The dedication to high-quality care and education aligns with my own values and aspirations. I am excited to be a part of this exceptional team, and making a positive impact on the lives of the children and families we serve.
