A little bit about me: I was born and raised on a beautiful island northeast of Mindanao in the Philippines. I lived an extraordinary life growing up in my homeland.
As my life developed, I have had several interesting endeavours or careers. I have experience working in a bank and the food industry, but my strong passion was working with children, and in my quest to migrate to Canada, I found it—early Childhood and Montessori Education! It is so simple, wonderful, engaging, and rewarding. I love seeing children’s expressions when they discover something new. It is a glorious feeling to show children these first learnings at the preschool and elementary levels.
I graduated with a four-year Bachelor of Science in Office Administration, majoring in Computer Education. I hold an Early Childhood Educator and Montessori Early Childhood Teacher diploma. I also completed my Special Needs Education and Association Montessori International School Administrator course.
I have found my purpose in life, and what I want to do with your child(ren) at my school is phenomenal. I love watching the children learn, play, and discover using a Montessori approach. Working with children, I am constantly learning more, and it is my passion to invent new ways to relate to children and help them form their foundations for learning as they go into life.

I am originally from India and have lived in Canada since 2021. I finished my Early Childhood Educator Assistant at Coastal College of British Columbia. My hobbies are listening to music and exploring nature. I used to work at Walmart as a customer service specialist, but I have always dreamed of working with children. I am following that passion for working here at Sophia Grace Montessori Preschool, and I am thrilled to witness your child(ren) grow.
Our Facility
Here's a sneak peek at our facility!
Our backyard play area is excellent. It is a holistic piece of nature surrounded by flowers and fruit trees (grapes, plums, and apples) in the garden. We have a designated nap room and musical instruments for our music and movement lessons. And I have more in our storage, supplies, and intuitions to share.
