Hi, I’m Mrs. T!
Choosing the right early childhood education is one of the most meaningful decisions you can make for your child, and I’m truly honored to be part of that journey. As a teacher at Everett Cooperative Preschool, I’m dedicated to guiding your child through these important, formative years with kindness, compassion, and patience—the same values I strive to live by every day.
I believe that learning is a lifelong adventure, and through close partnership with families, I work to create a safe, nurturing, and joyful environment where children can thrive. Our play-based curriculum encourages curiosity, creativity, and confidence, helping children build the foundation for a lifelong love of learning. As Dr. Seuss said, “Together we can move mountains.”
One of the most unique and rewarding aspects of our school is its cooperative model. This approach allows families to play an active role in shaping our school community, creating a truly collaborative and enriching experience for everyone involved. It's also the reason my own family chose a cooperative preschool for our children.
With over 14 years of experience in cooperative education—seven of those as a lead teacher—I bring both professional expertise and a deep personal commitment to every classroom moment. I’m also a proud mom to two children in middle and high school and have been married to my husband for over 20 years. Outside the classroom, I enjoy volunteering, reading, and cheering on my kids as a dedicated sports mom.
I’m excited to welcome your family to our community and look forward to an inspiring and joyful school year ahead.
Hello, I’m Miss Lindsey!
I love cooperative learning for so many reasons. The number one reason is the fact that the children get to learn from not only our teachers, but also our parents. Our parents have so much to contribute to cooperative learning and I’m grateful that I have been able to experience this as a parent, and will get to experience this as a teacher starting Fall 2025!
2025 will be my first year teaching cooperative preschool, but my own kiddos have been in the preschool for the last five years. Before that, I was a professional nanny for fourteen years working with kids from ages newborn up to age 6! One of the families I worked with allowed me to volunteer in the classroom at the cooperative preschool their children attended in Seattle, WA. It was there that I fell in love with this model and vowed to let my children (and my family) have the same great experience that I had several years ago.
Patience, love, and awe are my best qualities when it comes to working with young children, and I’m so excited to use these qualities to help teach all of your kiddos! I’m also excited to get to know and work with all of you parents to help make Everett Cooperative Preschool the best preschool experience for your family!
Personally, I have been married to my husband for almost 15 years and we have two wonderful children. I love to travel, I’m a francophile (and will most likely speak a little french in the classroom), and a musician (the piano and voice) since the age of six. I love to be with my family, I love to travel, I love a little bit of coffee (okay a lot a bit of coffee), and I recently learned that I love to play BUNCO!!
