I have a huge passion for all things PRESCHOOL and mindfulness is my cherry on top! With teaching as my superpower and part of my DNA since I was a little girl, I am here today to be…

Through college, I taught and directed a preschool and upon graduating with a BA in Child Development I started my own little family, along with Lil’ Scholars University, established in 2005. LSU is a large in-home preschool located in El Dorado Hills, CA, where we engage in loads of hands-on preschool activities with a focus of mindfulness, literacy, math, art, crafts, sensory, and science. Above all, our learning wonderland is where all of our creativity takes place and this site is where I get to share it all with you! When I am not in the classroom, you will find me creating and playing with my 2 girls, my hubby, and my 2 fur babies.

OUR MISSION is to enrich children’s lives through mindfulness and our unique, quality, and educational kinder-prep-preschool program. Therefore, we encourage critical thinking and exploration for a smooth transition into a Common Core Kindergarten. Most important, our primary goal is that each of our Lil’ Scholars grow with a true love for learning and the confidence needed for personal and academic success. Teaching is our passion and we not only teach our local community but also network with other teachers and educators around the world, helping to create a world of inspiration!

Our students are engaged and LEARNING through a wide variety of skills and topics in unique and interesting ways. As we combine thematic units and academic subjects, our classroom evolves into an exciting learning wonderland. Smiles and giggles often fill our room as HAPPY KIDS run through our doors excited to see what new materials are out for them to enjoy and engage with during our daily child exploration time. At circle time, kids are engaged as we explore through calendar, letters, numbers, colors, music and so much more. Sometimes, it’s hard to leave after a day of so much fun. Our hearts thrive on happy families and when kids are happy, PARENTS are even more.
