Temporary Location
Until our new school is ready, Little Red Schoolhouse is in a temporary home:
2735 Brush Creek Rd

A brand-new school is being built at our home on Owl Creek Road! The historic little red schoolhouse is staying, with bright new classrooms tucked in right behind it. Construction is expected to wrap up in summer 2027. Here’s a sneak peek — we can’t wait to welcome you there.

Our Approach
Little Red Schoolhouse (LRSH) will focus on the child as a whole and as an individual. With a focus on social-emotional growth, we will help children to learn and develop in all areas of development. Little Red Schoolhouse will help the children to respect themselves, others and the environment around them. We will use the environment around us to teach the children life skills to help them be successful in everything they do.

Meet
I am the owner, director, preschool teacher, bus driver and accountant for WCK. I have worked in the early childhood field since 1997 and have a degree in human development and family studies. My passion is caring for all children and their families.
I am from Albania. I earned my degree in Elementary Education and began my teaching career there, where I worked as a kindergarten teacher for five years. Teaching has been my passion for more than 22 years, and for the past six years, I have had the privilege of teaching here at Little Red School House. I truly love watching children grow in confidence, develop friendships, discover their interests, and experience the joy of learning through play and exploration. Outside the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, reading, writing, listening to music and going for walks.
This will be my second year at LRSH in the preschool classroom and I am so excited for another wonderful year! Before joining Little Red, I spent five years as a nanny in Ohio, where I discovered my passion for working with young children. I was looking for a place where I could build meaningful connections with children, families, and the community, and I am so grateful to have found that here at Little Red School House. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my dog and boyfriend, riding my bike, hiking, and enjoying the outdoors. I am looking forward to a great school year with all of you!
I’m originally from Nicaragua, where I worked as a general doctor. I moved here three years ago and since then, I’ve been dedicating my passion and care to early childhood education. I’m also a proud mom to an 8-year-old boy and an 11-month-old baby girl!!! When I am not at work, I enjoy fresh air, going for a walk, biking, or going to the gym. Working with toddlers brings me so much joy. I love creating a warm, safe and nurturing environment where little ones feel confident to explore, learn and grow. I’m truly honored to be part of your child’s learning journey, and I look forward to building a strong connection with your family this year.
I am originally from New Hampshire and have been living on and off in Colorado for the past eight years, and am just finishing my first full year here. I have spent the last five years working in Reggio-inspired infant and toddler classrooms and love being part of this work. I find it especially meaningful to watch children grow, explore, and make sense of the world around them, and am excited to continue building relationships with the children and families while being part of such a connected classroom community.
Originally from Japan, I’ve called the Roaring Fork Valley home since 2010. I began working with young children in 2016 and quickly discovered how much joy I find in learning and growing alongside them. I’m passionate about building a strong sense of community and feel grateful to be part of children’s early years, which I believe play such an important role in shaping who they become.
