Charlotte

Hello, I am Charlotte. I was born and raised in England. I moved to Canada in 2017. I obtained my Masters Degree in Education from the UK, as well as a Bachelors in Drama. I am passionate about teaching young children and helping them to develop into amazing little humans. I managed a daycare in the UK for 5 years. Then came here to continue my teaching career.

I love to spend time exploring outside and especially love to play in the rain. (Vancouver is perfect for this!)

I enjoy baking and creating masterpieces out of cake. I recently took up knitting and crochet to help me relax after a long day at work. I can be a very hands on person when learning new crafts.

I love all things Dog related, and spend lots of time out with my dogs Esther and Penny. Both of the dogs and I do agility training on the weekends to keep us focussed and active.

Lissa

Hi, I’m Lissa. My family and I have moved to this beautiful province from Montreal.

I’ve been raising kids, and in the education field for half my life now. Once completing my studies as a certified Daycare Educator in Québec. I worked in the school district. My work with the school district has given me the opportunity to attend several ASD workshops and I have gained a lot of experience with special needs, and inclusivity. I have my ECE Licence to practice here in BC.

When I’m not with your children, I’m usually with my own. I’m a proud mum of 3 boys. We love walking on the trails, biking, hiking, and finding secret beaches and parks to picnic. I enjoy everything outdoors, rain or shine! I find BC incredibly inspiring, and its environment humbling.

Children are my life, and I feel extremely grateful to be part of the Creative Kids family.

Hi! My name is Edith. I was born and raised in Hong Kong.

A few years ago, my family and I made the big move to Canada. It’s been a wonderful journey, and we’ve really come to love life here.

I started working as a support worker in a daycare after finishing my ECE Assistant certificate in December 2024. I’m still pretty new to the field, but I really enjoy being around kids, playing with them, helping them learn, and seeing how they grow every day. It’s something that makes me feel happy and fulfilled.

I’m really looking forward to being part of the Creative Kids team and getting to know everyone!
