Our Early Preschool Classroom
Many 2-year-olds want to do everything by themselves. And why not? It’s their way of experimenting and learning to understand the world. Early Preschool teachers provide a safe, nurturing environment where your child can explore and stretch their talents to the fullest all while building self-confidence. Your child will have fun every day as they play and learn important academic skills, social skills and more.
Nurturing Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts®

Ms. Cardoso
Hello, my name is Ms. Julia Cardoso, and I am excited to be part of the school community this year!
I completed my high school education in Brazil and have always had a passion for learning and helping others. In addition to working in education, I am also a nursing assistant. My inspiration to become an educator came from my mother, who is a teacher and has always encouraged my love of learning.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, exploring new places, cooking, reading, and taking walks with my dog, Charlie.
I look forward to getting to know your children and supporting them throughout the school year. I am excited to be a part of the school team!
