Hi, I’m Andrea Reynolds. I’ve spent over 25 wonderful years working with kids in various roles, from Daycare Supervisor to Preschool Teacher and Special Education Assistant. I have certifications in Early Childhood Education and Special Education, and I also hold a Baking and Pastry Arts Certificate, which I love sharing with the little ones. I’ve grown up in Vancouver, so I have a special love for nature and enjoy visiting farmers’ markets, exploring Stanley Park, and soaking up local art and culture.
