Hi I am Jess!
Kids call me Ms. Jess.
I am so excited to be joining the Fireside community this year! I have been teaching Preschool for over 15 years now and this will be my third year teaching Enrichment for the district. I feel very fortunate to be able to be part of a child's growth and learning. It is so special to see the world through their eyes. That is a big part of why I love what I do. I look forward to getting to know all the children and families. When I am not working you can find me around town with my three children Lylah age 14 a freshman at Monarch , Jack age 11 a sixth grader at LMS, and Grace who is 15 months!
I’m so excited to begin my third year at Fireside as part of the preschool enrichment team!
Children are the future, and I feel honored to support their growth and curiosity each day.
I bring experience teaching children ages 3–12 in Japan, and I am also a proud parent of four wonderful children (ages 12, 10, 9, and 7). My experiences as both a teacher and a parent have shown me that strong connections between home and school are essential. I strive to build a community based on honesty, respect, and shared commitment to each child’s success. I want each child to feel secure, respected, and encouraged to try new things.
I also look forward to introducing Japanese culture to our preschoolers—through crafts, cooking, and Japanese calligraphy—so they can explore and celebrate diversity in fun and meaningful ways.
I can’t wait to get to know each child and family and to work together to make this a joyful and memorable year!
