Well here I am! This is the start of the world of blogging for me!
I have been an active reader of blogs for a while now, and I have always wanted to share my wonderings, discoveries, and enlightenments with the 'blogger-sphere'. I have a million things in my head, and really would like to put it all somewhere. I also have many experiences to share.
I have been in the field of enriching children's lives for more than 10 years, and have so often wanted to share my memories somehow. So I thought here's a place.
Please bear with me as I journey through starting up.
I am running head first into an experience of starting my own centre, estimate date of inauguration is January 2012. The journey is tough, as I have looked long and hard to find an ideal location that suits my philosophy and design, and although I have found 'the space' it is old and needs a lot of work. I wish I had taken photos of the day I moved in, and shown the progress, but I was just far to excited to get going on all my 'ambitions' that the camera got put to the side. So from this point on the photos will be taken so you all can follow my journey. But know this, the place showed lots of potential, but it needed and still needs A LOT of work!!!
My philosophy is a mix of many. I have embraced the Reggio Emilia philosophy, and incorporate it into my program as much as I can. I also recognize the joy of Montessori and Waldorf in the lives of the children in my care. So you may see a wide variety of techniques and curricula in the experience that are offered.
I look forward to sharing my journey with all you readers out there and look forward to hearing from you all!
