This interactive program for PreK-12 is perfect for the kid who loves animals, science, and fun! Children are fascinated by animals and display a deep passion for animal welfare and well-being at an early age. The Vets in Training Program embraces the human animal bond through interaction and education. By providing hands-on experienced-based education to each student in the program, the children are empowered to explore animals and the many facets of veterinary medicine. The Vets in Training staff will empower your child to appreciate that they are part of a greater community of animals. We aim to ignite the desire to have fun, become animal ambassadors, and explore the world of veterinary medicine and all that it has to offer.

MEET OUR TEACHERS WEEK! ✏️🐾

Miss Kim is the proud owner of the Vets in Training Program. She is also the acting director, organizing all classes and programs while teaching many fun and engaging classes to our students. She has run this program since 2022, expanding our summer camp and creating programs in schools throughout New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York. Miss Kim has also added pet therapy to the Vets in Training, working with many local special needs schools, senior care centers, and retirement facilities.

Miss Kim obtained an Associate of Arts degree from Burlington County College in 2006 and continued on to Moore College of Art and Design where she majored in Art Education with a minor in Environmental Art. She graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts and a K-12 teaching certificate in the state of PA. After college Miss Kim worked in many schools before finding her home as a homeschool teacher at Fernbrook Farms Environmental Education Center. There, she started a unique environmental art after school program which developed into a full scale after school program partnered with Chesterfield Elementary School and other local schools in New Jersey. She then became the director of school programs and the assistant director of summer camp before leaving Fernbrook to focus on caring for her four children.

When our students returned to school after COVID, Miss Kim decided it was time to return to education. What she missed most about Fernbrook was the time spent learning and caring for the farm animals. So she found a new home with Vets in Training where she could continue her passion for learning and education as well as focus on live animals and the environment.

In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Anthony and their four children, Gemma, Charlotte, Zoey, and Dylan. She has a dog named, Kubota that enjoys coming to work with her. She loves reading Steven King novels, being outside in nature, and drawing.

She is looking forward to meeting you and your children at Vets in Training!

Ever since Ms. Maddy was in Kindergarten, she knew she wanted to be a teacher but also wanted to work with animals and be a veterinarian so Vets in Training is the best of both worlds!

Teacher Team Building Activity:
Birdwatching in our beautiful woods behind our Education Center! 🦅 🌲

Did you know the best times of day to birdwatch are early in the morning or in the evening around dinner time? It’s best to stand still and very quiet for 30 seconds to hear bird calls, then you look for the bird first before using your binoculars!

Do your children enjoy birdwatching?
Fall Classes Week 1 we will be teaching about the native birds in New Jersey, birdwatching and going for a hike in the woods! 🥾
