She resides in the village with her husband, Tim and has four adult sons. She loves animals and has chickens, two dogs, a cat, a tortoise and a pond full of fish. After sending all four of her boys through the program she knew Hamburg Nursery School was a special place and didn't want to leave. She feels blessed to work in such a happy environment surrounded by curious young minds and involved and supportive families. Her goal is to provide a warm, loving atmosphere for each child’s first school experience. She loves watching the children progress from wary toddlers to confident and prepared children ready for the challenges of kindergarten. In her spare time she loves to travel, read and garden.

where she met her husband Doug. They have three children and two grandchildren: Natalie (husband Collin, Josephine and Teddy), Philip and Aydan.
