I’m Stacey! I’m a preschool educator with a big heart for early learning and creating playful, welcoming spaces for children to grow. I’ve worked with both AM and PM preschool programs, and I love watching little ones discover new things, build friendships, and gain confidence through creativity and play. Outside of work, you’ll usually find me spending time with my two cats, Bean and Charlotte, or working on something cute and creative — I love designs, cozy spaces, and anything that brings a bit of joy and color to everyday life. I’m passionate about connection, kindness, and helping every child (and person!) feel seen and supported. I’ve been working with young children for a few years now, mostly in preschool settings with both AM and PM programs. I’ve spent a lot of time helping kids learn through play, explore their creativity, and build confidence in themselves. I love creating a classroom where every child feels safe, cared for, and excited to come in each day. I’m really big on connection — getting to know each child’s personality, what makes them laugh, and what helps them learn best. I enjoy planning fun activities, art projects, and sensory play that keep them curious and engaged. Working with little ones has taught me so much about patience, teamwork, and just how special it is to see those “I did it!” moments.

My name is Nicole. I am a transplant from the United States. While I was at a monastery in West Virginia in 2021, I met my husband who is from Quebec, he had the same passion for meditation that I have and we recently got married and chose Canada as our country of residence :) I am interested in meditation, karate, reading fiction and mindfulness books, drawing, watching movies, decorating and design, and landscaping. I have had the fortune of traveling and moving a lot in my life, and am now looking to settle down with my husband in Stratford and build a life and eventually, a family here. My experiences as a library assistant, nanny, tutor, ESL teacher, and babysitter have allowed me to connect with so many wonderful children who have touched my life in a way that I can never forget. I am passionate about child development and paying attention to kids in a way that I can discover what lights up their heart. I believe a passionate child is a happy child. My way of finding that out is to ask questions and encourage them to try new things; especially creative things that allow for self-expression. I am also a huge proponent of emotional expression, I feel, with all my heart, that if a child can learn to express and regulate their emotions at a young age, there is nothing that can be too much for them to handle in their adult life. That is my intention and my dream <3 I can viably say I have over two decades in different kinds of childcare experience, as I started as a mother's helper when I was 12 (over 20 years ago :) I became a babysitter in my late teens and started nannying and tutoring in college. After college, I became an au pair in France for travel experiences and lived with a family of two girls as a resident nanny and English teacher in 2019. In 2022 I became an ESL teacher in Vietnam for a 9 month contract. It was a marvelous experience and I worked with kids from 4 to 14 in various classes. I also have had some remarkable experiences nannying in tandem with my bakery job in 2016 with some lovely families. My specialty is with toddlers up to middle school. I have also had the chance to care for my own precious nephew in his toddler age while my step-sister was working. My favorite part of childcare is bonding through learning what children love the most about life. If I could impart any gift to a child, it would be the gift of knowing what makes them happy at the youngest age possible. TEFL Teaching Certificiate, Mindfulness Educator (Short Training)

Bachelor's Degree, College, High School, Associates Degree

I am 27 years old and will soon be 28 in November. As soon as I graduated from high school, I knew I wanted to work with children and youth. I completed my co-op placement in public schools in Stratford, specifically Romeo Public School and Avon Public School. After graduating, I took Child Psychology, and then decided to pursue Child & Youth Worker. I worked in a group home for children with special needs for 3 years. I also worked at Stratford Cygnets, which is a preschool. In addition, I have worked at many daycares as well. The reason why I stopped working with children for a while was because I had two knee surgeries, and that really held me back from working with children and being able to be active with them. I am now fully healed and recovered. I would love to be able to start working with children again. I have my First Aid, as well as infant and child First Aid and AED training. I can also get a police check if needed. I have my degree in child psychology and child and youth I worked at pre schools, daycares and public schools in Stratford. I also did 3 years of working at Stratford Children Services working with children who are on the spectrum and Children who aren't on it.

I occasionally picked two children (six and nine) up after school and brought them to my house for a snack and playtime until their parents picked them up. I also babysat them for the occasional evening. I babysat two other kids (five and seven) after school. I would pick them up, walk them home, get a snack, and play for an hour or two before their parents came home. I have also occasionally babysat one four year old for the occasional afternoon, and I have babysat him and his 18 month old sister at night when they have been put to bed.
