Miss Thea
I am a proud mother of three amazing boys and a dedicated early childhood educator. I established Miss Thea's Montessori Schoolhouse with the hope of providing a nurturing environment where children can truly feel at home as they begin their educational journey. Over the course of about 14 years teaching in preschool, I have come to understand that children have an innate ability to learn, and my role is to make their learning experiences meaningful and impactful.
