My Part Yet To Be Played

I am a life-long early childhood educator. My journey began at the age of sixteen in a small infant classroom. My passion for the guidance of young children grew through high school and my undergraduate early childhood parent education program. I have been a teacher, a nanny, a director. Currently I am working in the non-profit sector, supporting the concept and practice of inclusion in early childhood education. As travel is a great interest of mine, I have been to South Africa to learn about early childhood education in various parts of that country with a delegation of other education professionals.

I am an introvert, so, by nature, online learning is ideal for me. I can network within the online community and continue recharging. I am a resourceful quick thinker, yet thoughtful in my response to others. I am a visual and hands-on learner, so I believe that learning remotely may pose the greatest challenge for me. The challenge is welcomed, though, as I continue to grow and learn about myself, this field I have chosen, and the part I am to play in it.
