Humeyra (AKA Miss Myra)
I received my degree in Early
Childhood Education from Bergen Community College in May 2007.
This is my very first professional
experience in the field. I have done my field work in another Early Childhood learning facility.
I have volunteered, in after
schools programs at Pioneer Academy of Science and thought teenagers at Saturday school for two years.
My hobbies are, reading,
skiing; ice skating, horse back riding, water (lake, beach, and rivers) and spending time with friends and family.

I think teaching
young ones is a big responsibility, but knowing you are a part of raising the future makes me very happy!

Nurturing a Love
of Learning
We
respect each child. We value their ideas. We strive to provide an environment that is rich in opportunities for children to
develop self esteem, language skills, independence, physical development, creativity, cultural understanding and a sense of
place and community.
For more about
our goals for your child see our Philosophy page.
Guiding Poem:
If …
If I can
ask my own questions, try out my ideas, experience
what’s around me, share what I find;
If I have
plenty of time for my special pace, a nourishing
space, things to transform;
If you’ll be
my patient friend, trusted guide, fellow investigator, partner
in learning
Then I will
explore the world, discover
my voice, and tell you what I know in
a hundred languages
