Puddle Jumper Preschool

Meet our Director, Ms. Jen!
Hi! I’m Jen, the owner and director of Puddle Jumper Preschool.
I started my journey as a stay-at-home mom. For those 10 years I loved exploring with my kids and doing co-op preschool at home. When my youngest headed off to elementary school, I decided it was time to make a longtime dream come true — and 13 years ago, Puddle Jumper Preschool was born!
I hold a bachelor’s degree in Child Development and Child Care Administration. My heart and passion have always been with children and families. I’m married to an amazing husband, have four awesome kids, and two very lovable (and very large!) Great Danes who keep life entertaining.
When I’m not at school, you’ll usually find me soaking up the outdoors — sunsets, mountains, beaches, old buildings, and a good book are my happy places.
My favorite part of being a teacher is watching that magical moment when a child grasps a new concept and feels so proud of themselves. Getting to know and love our students and their families over the years has been such a gift.
I truly love Puddle Jumper and the community we’ve built, and I’m so grateful to be part of your child’s early learning journey 💕
