Before coming to Keswick School Janey worked 9 years at KinderCare Learning Center. She held many roles during this time. She worked with children of diverse ages (newborn to 12 year olds). Her positions included Preschool Teacher, Hooked on Phonics tutor, Summer Program Developer, and Activities Developer. These positions provided Janey an opportunity to grow as a teacher, and learn different styles of instruction. She was able to learn behavior management and how to construct a classroom to allow students to be successful. She also learned how to best meet the needs of each individual student. These skills helped prepare her role at Keswick School.
“ I chose to work at Keswick School because I want to make a difference in the lives of the students I work with each day. To be a part of something that brings new beginnings and hope.”
In Janey’s free time she loves to go hiking. To explore the outdoors, and take lots of pictures of the beauty that surrounds her. She loves spending time with her kids and family at the beach, amusement park, or the comfort of her home. She also enjoys looking for opportunities to be a blessing to someone in need. That could look like an encouraging note, a side hug, a shared laugh, a homemade gift, or even a special treat. She believes that kindness and a smile is one of the best gifts you can give a person and encourages others to do the same.
