Our tiny team would love to meet you!
All our teachers are CPR certified and first aid trained. Teachers at Teeny Tiny are required to take at least 30 hours of professional development training each year. Each of our teachers are devoted to early childhood education, development, and love working with children!
Ms. Katherine
Ms Kat holds a Bachelor of Science in Education from the University of Arkansas. She has over 20 years of experience in early childcare. She has a passion for art and projects in the classroom! She believes self-expression through art, music, building, playing, and making are some of the many languages in which children learn to communicate! "I love the child-led, play-focused, social and emotional-oriented/ Reggio-Emilia style philosophy and mission at Teeny Tiny! I am also a proud mom of two fellow students here!"
Ms. Erika
Ms Erika started at Teeny Tiny in 2021, left to have a baby, and returned in 2024. Her genuine love for this school, brought her back! She appreciates the philosophy that we follow and the warm, nurturing environment. "We are breaking cycles and stigmas that I've never seen broken before in your typical daycare," she says. Erika currently thrives as a lead teacher of the toddler room where she helps children use the potty, gain vocabulary, and learn who they are as a little person. She has always had a passion for working with children and says, "Teaching is a selfless and powerful career path that I am so lucky to be a part of. It is hard, messy and some days can be pure chaos. But there is a beautiful magic in the chaos and mess."
Ms. Destiny
Ms Destiny has worked at Teeny Tiny since 2021! She has worked in every room and so she has experience caring for the smallest babies, potty time with toddlers, and preschool readiness with children preparing for Kindergarten. She loves working with children of all ages! She says, "I love teaching new skills to them and seeing the children grow and watching their progress. I love Teeny Tiny because we are such small community and everyone is so kind and we love all of our families."
Mr. Tyler
Mr Tyler has enjoyed helping children and teachers at Teeny Tiny since early 2024. He has functioned as a float, aftercare helper, and assistant in every room. His patience and kindness is appreciated by all the children!
Ms. Roslyn
Ms. Roslyn has a Bachelor's Degree from Goddard College where she independently studied Emilia Reggio, Montenssori, and Waldorf philosophies. Though she is the director and administrator at Teeny Tiny, she loves the opportunity to work with children when needed to cover a shift. She has a deep passion for making the world a better place through education, community connection, and compassion.
