“Sometimes the smallest things take up the most room in your heart” -Winnie the Pooh

Valerie holds an A.A. in Social Sciences from Long Beach City College, along with a B.A. in Child Development and Family Studies and a Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education from California State University, Long Beach.

Her passion for early childhood education began at the age of 15 and has grown into a lifelong commitment to nurturing young minds. Valerie is dedicated to creating a warm, welcoming environment where children feel valued, supported, and encouraged to explore, learn, and let their imaginations bloom. She believes in the power of play and meaningful experiences to help children build confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning.

When she’s not in the classroom, Valerie enjoys cuddling with her fur babies, wandering through bookstores, baking sweet treats, sipping a good cup of coffee, traveling to new places, and making precious memories with her family.
