Annie was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario. She completed her Bachelors in Environmental Studies at the University of Waterloo prior to moving to Calgary in 2015. She will also be completing a Master of Science from the University of Calgary in December 2018.
Annie has always been interested in childcare and education. She has previously worked at the Kumon Learning Centre, Toronto District School Board, and shortly volunteered at Happy Valley Daycare. Professionally, Annie has also worked as Microbiology Research Technician at Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. Annie has diverse work experiences in childcare and outside of childcare, however, she always found herself drawn to this industry. On her spare time, she volunteers as a Sunday school teacher (ages 2-10) at her church and she has also volunteered as a camp leader for 9 consecutive summers on the Six Nations reserve in Ontario. Outside of the daycare, you can find Annie either playing volleyball, in the mountains, or napping on her couch.

She always think Love is the most important when I care for people, especially kids.She believes that love can fill their heart and develop their mind and that is why she wants to pour her love into kids so that they can grow up as people who believe in themselves and share this love with others.

I graduated from University of Calgary with a degree in Criminal Justice in 2021. I had always wanted to be a police officer, but for some reason, I became interested in children. I've always loved children, but I never imagined I'd work in childcare because the only experience I have with children is I volunteer at church. I've been volunteering as a preschool teacher for about ten years. While seeking for positions in the criminal justice profession, I discovered that I wanted to learn more about children and teach, so I applied at a daycare. I truly loved and enjoyed it. Now that I've been working in this field for almost a year and a half, I've decided to further my study by returning to school and doing my level 2. My goal and purpose is to make a difference in the lives of every child I encounter and guide them in the right path because early childhood is the most essential stage of learning and growth.

I have a Bachelor's in Psychology with a focus in child development, and I am currently taking my Masters in Counselling Psychology.
I look forward to working with your children at Little Roots! I have over 10 years of experience working and volunteering with children, from volunteering with children in children ministry, to working in a school setting for 3 years with autistic children at Janus Academy. In my different roles I have had the opportunity to support and help my students build confidence and autonomy in themselves and their exposure to new experiences. My goal at Little Roots is to be able to use my experiences to help foster an environment that allows the children to be comfortable exploring their likes and dislikes and to see them discover themselves!
I have always had a heart for children for as long as I can remember. I have always found joy in babysitting and watching kids grow from little babies into smart, independent, children.
My love for that really flourished when my niece was born and I had the pleasure of watching her develop into such a kind, gentle young girl. In my spare time, I am at my church volunteering in the nursery and as a youth leader, out hiking in the mountains with my dog, or catching the occasional movie or two at the theatre!
I am so excited to start at little roots and meet all of you and your children. My goal is to provide a safe space for your children to learn and develop while being there to guide them.
After completing my bachelor's and master's degrees in art in Korea, I gained valuable experience as a kindergarten teacher.
Upon moving to Canada, I started my journey in childcare by volunteering at a daycare in Edmonton. Over the past decade, I've witnessed the remarkable capabilities of children, reinforcing my strong belief in their potential as mighty learners. I look forward to the surprises and growth that each child at Little Roots will bring, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to contribute to their educational journey.
