Hello from the Director of our Rhythm & Rhyme Family!

 

Dear Families,

I am delighted to introduce myself as the new Director of Rhythm and Rhyme. I wanted to take a moment to share my excitement about joining this wonderful community and working with your precious children.

My journey in education began with a BA in Romance Languages, followed by two Master's Degrees in Education. I started my career teaching French and Spanish at the secondary level, eventually advancing to Assistant Department Chair of the World Language Department. However, after having my own children (now 16 and 10), I discovered my true passion lay in early childhood education. Working with children from infancy through age 5 has been the most rewarding chapter of my educational career, combining my love for learning and nurturing young minds during their most formative years.

Throughout my career, I've been passionate about creating nurturing environments where children can thrive, learn, and grow. I believe that strong partnerships between families and educators are essential to providing the best possible care and development opportunities for our little ones. My experience as both an educator and a parent has given me a deep appreciation for the trust you place in us each day.

I look forward to getting to know each of your families personally in the coming weeks. You'll often find me in the classrooms and at drop-off and pick-up times, so please don't hesitate to stop by and say hello. I'm eager to hear your thoughts and ideas about our center and to work together in maintaining the high-quality care you've come to expect.

Our dedicated teaching staff will continue providing the excellent care and education your children deserve, and I'm committed to supporting them in this important work. My door will always be open to you, and I welcome your questions, concerns, and suggestions.

Please feel free to reach out to me directly at slorentzen@rrchildcare.com  or stop by my office.

Thank you for welcoming me into your day care community. I'm looking forward to our journey together in nurturing and supporting your children's growth and development.

Warmest regards, 

Stephanie Lorentzen
