Originally from Peru, I earned a degree in English before moving to Boston. Little did I know over the years I would become a mother, an educator and a businesswoman. Driven by my love for working with children, I entered the Early Childhood Education Program at Urban College of Boston. I graduated with honors, and on April 3, 2009 received the Emerging Leader Award at the Early Childhood Education Annual Award Luncheon.

After more than 10 years working in Early Childhood Education, I was thrilled when the opportunity to open the Little Children Schoolhouse in Brookline arose. As a mother, as well as an educator, I was driven to create a unique, family-centered school tailored to each child's needs. From my experience raising my own children, I understand how important it is to have childcare that nurtures a child's development and fits each family's lifestyle. This is the reason why LCS does not offer only full-time slots;  we know how important it is for children and parents to be together as much as possible during these formative years.

Being a mother has greatly effected my work as Director of Little Children Schoolhouse.  My daughter Cristina is a sports fanatic, and although she faced a critical illness, her I learned to live life to the fullest from her example. My son Alejandro has a speech delay and has taught me to be patient and understanding.  These lessons and the joy I derive from being a parent and an educator are the cornerstone of LCS.  Little Children Schoolhouse is so much more than a school; it is your extended family.
