ππ Happy Birthday to the one and only Ms. Shayla! ππ
If youβve ever wondered what a real-life superhero looks like, itβs Ms. Shayla! πͺπ
As our Caterpillars teacher, float, runner, admin, trainer, problem-solver, and all-around βIβll help wherever Iβm neededβ person, she wears more hats than we can count! And somehow, she manages to do it all while raising three amazing kids of her own. π
Ms. Shayla is always willing to jump in, lend a hand, share her knowledge, and keep things running smoothly. Her dedication, kindness, and hard work make such a difference in the lives of our children, families, and staff every single day.
We truly would be lost without her, and we are so thankful sheβs part of the Ms. Mandiβs family! β€οΈ
Please join us in wishing Ms. Shayla the happiest of birthdays! πππ

Today was extra exciting at Ms. Mandiβs Preschool & ELC when one of our students, Max, got dropped off in a FIRE TRUCK! ππ₯
The smiles, excitement, and wide eyes from all of our kiddos made our morning so special. Max was beyond excited to share this awesome experience with his friends, and it definitely made for a memorable start to the day!
A huge THANK YOU to the amazing firefighters at the SSFD for making this happen and for all that you do for our community every single day. We appreciate you so much! β€οΈπ¨βπ

Some of our staff recently attended a training focused on trauma-sensitive care for infants and toddlers. While it was an extremely emotional and difficult topic, it is also one of the most important conversations in early childhood education.
We are so thankful for teachers who are willing to step outside of their comfort zones, continue learning, and truly understand the impact they can have on the lives of children every single day.
Caring for children means caring for their hearts, emotions, and experiences too β and we are proud to have a team that is dedicated to doing just that. β€οΈ

π¬β¨ The Ones Where We Celebrated Our AMAZING Teachers! β¨π¬
What a week it has been at our little version of Central Perk! βπ
Wednesday was The One With All The Thank You Notes and WOWβ¦ our families absolutely showed up for our teachers! π₯Ή We received EIGHTEEN pages FRONT and BACK filled with the sweetest messages, kind words, funny memories, and so much love. There may have been a few tears shed. Our teachers felt so loved and appreciated!
Thursday was The One With The Self Care π
π―οΈβ¨ because even Monica would agree that teachers deserve a little time to relax and recharge! We spoiled our staff with goodies and reminders to take care of themselves the way they take care of everyone else every single day.
And today? The One With The Sandwich Feast! π₯ͺπ° Joey would definitely approve! We wrapped up the week with tons of delicious sandwiches and THE BEST cheesecake ever. Honestlyβ¦ it was worth breaking out the Thanksgiving pants for! π
We appreciate our teachers every single day, but this week was extra special. Watching our staff feel celebrated, loved, and appreciated reminded us just how lucky we are to have such an incredible team. They are the heart of our center and the reason our little friends feel safe, loved, and ready to learn every day.
Could we BE any more thankful for our teachers and families?! π₯Ήπ
