Ms. Lauren

Welcome Little Learner’s 4’s class!  My name is Miss Lauren, and I am over the moon to be teaching your child this year! I’m so blessed to have met some of your kiddos through last year’s Lunch Buddy Extended Day Program, some of you at Camp Discovery, some of you in the hallways, and some of you even at Swim Lessons at Lions Pool! This will be my second year teaching the 4’s and I’m so excited to embark on this wonderful journey with your child. Our classroom will be a place where curiosity is encouraged, creativity flourishes, and friendships are built. We’ll explore new concepts, engage in hands-on activities, and celebrate every milestone together.  Additionally, I believe in open communication and a strong partnership between home and school. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime with questions, concerns, or just to share a success story. Your involvement is crucial, and together, we can make this year an unforgettable experience for your child.  Let’s make this year a fantastic one filled with learning, laughter, and growth. Welcome to Little Learner’s Preschool 4’s, where every day is an adventure!

Hi! My name is Miss Kasia. Many of my friends have little ones your child’s age that I am a beloved Auntie to. I adore reading to them as much as they love listening!

I have a background in public services as well as family services. My goal is to pursue a master’s degree in public policy & administration.

I’ve lived in Clarendon Hills going on 7 years and love this community so much that I want to give back by teaching your little ones! I’m looking forward to a wonderful school year!

Ms. Bridget

Hi! My name is Ms. Bridget, and I’m thrilled to be part of the Clarendon Hills Park District preschool team. I’ve been teaching for the past 25 years and can truly say it is a passion of mine. I have a BA in Elementary Education and a Masters in Science Education. I taught all subjects for the first 10 years and then transitioned into general science for K-5 students for the last 15 years. I love exploring science topics with students, hearing all their thoughtful ideas and questions, and helping them make the connections necessary to make sense of themselves and the world around them. I can’t wait to meet and get to know each child in the 2’s and start exploring with them!

Greetings! My name is Ms. Aydee, and I’m delighted to be teaching in the Little Learners 3s classroom. While I’ve been enjoying my retirement, I’m excited to step back into the classroom! My experience includes teaching preschool and kindergarten, as well as early childhood courses at a community college. I received my bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Concordia University.

As a teacher, I enjoy creating engaging activities that meet the individual and group needs of my students. I can’t wait to meet and get to know our wonderful classroom community!

Outside the classroom, my husband and I are proud parents to two adult children and loving grandparents to three young grandchildren, ages 1, 5, and 7. We’re also “fur parents” to our beloved cats.
