About Me
My name is Theresa Senst. I am married and have two children 18 and 19. I have been an in-home childcare provider for 20 years. I am in the process of transitioning over from an in home childcare to an in home preschool program running two preschool classes a day. I have my CDA, two diplomas for Montessori training, and am a Certified National Geographic Educator.
I discovered the Montessori Philosophy a few years ago and fell in love. I studied the philosophy and got an international Montessori teaching diploma for infant/toddler and went on to study early childhood and got another international Montessori teaching diploma for children three to six years of age.
I believe children thrive when they can be independent in a prepared environment. I am dedicated to helping children better understand the world around them and enrich children’s lives through nature, hands on activities, and life skills.
