My Passion for Early Learning

Growing up in the Philippines, I wasn't destined for the traditional path. While many in my family pursued careers in medicine, I discovered a LOVE for nurturing young minds through babysitting. This passion led me to earn a degree in early childhood education.

For many years, I thrived in the energetic preschool environment as a teacher, building strong connections with families and children of all ages. In fact, I’m known as the “baby whisperer” because they all adored me and there was never a baby I couldn’t get to laugh, smile, play, eat and sleep. After years of success as a preschool teacher and later as a director, I craved a new challenge and decided to work in another industry. Though I appreciated the opportunity to learn and grow professionally, a part of me felt something was missing. Trading the predictability of a 9-to-5 for the joyful chaos of preschool life left me yearning for the fulfillment and unpredictable excitement of each day with the children, the constant stream of questions, and the pure joy of their discoveries.

That's why I created Little Turtles Preschool! My online program allows me to combine my passion for early learning with the flexibility I desired. With my experience and expertise, I've created a nurturing online environment where children can explore, learn, and grow, just like in a traditional preschool setting.
