Meet Kristen

Kristen is a dedicated early childhood educator with a deep-rooted passion for nurturing young learners. A proud graduate of Stonehill College in North Easton, MA, she earned her Bachelor of Arts in Elementary Education before going on to complete her Master’s degree in the same field at Cambridge College in Cambridge, MA.

Kristen began her teaching career in third grade classrooms across both parochial and public school settings. After stepping away to raise her children, she felt a renewed calling to return to education—this time at the preschool level. For more than a decade, Kristen has specialized in early childhood education, where her commitment to developmentally appropriate, play-based learning has flourished.

She currently teaches Life Skills and a class of young 3-year-olds at Oak Hills Preschool in San Antonio, Texas. Kristen also maintains a classroom blog that offers parents meaningful insights into the purpose and process behind her daily activities, bridging the gap between classroom experiences and home life.
