Amy was raised in a Christian home. Amy became interested in working with young children and worked in child care as well as a nanny over the years. When she moved to Connecticut, she worked at a child care center and earned her CDA from Capital Community College in Hartford. After five years of working in childcare, she began her own family and became a stay at home mom enjoyed all that it had to offer. Both of her children attended Lighthouse. Her daughter is now a college graduate and her son is currently in college.

One of her favorite things about early childhood education is reading to kids. There is so much to learn and so many adventures to be found in books! What She loves most about working with children is watching them discover new things and asking open ended questions to engage their thinking process. She often collects real things for the children to explore and use in play.
