Our three-year-old program at The Learning Center is designed to nurture curiosity, confidence, and a love for learning through engaging, hands-on experiences. Each day begins with learning through play—encouraging imagination, cooperation, and discovery in a safe and joyful environment.
As our 3s continue to grow, we focus on number recognition (1–20), Bible memorization, and the introduction of phonics-based reading. Each alphabet letter is taught phonetically and reinforced through songs, stories, and creative activities. Weekly learning themes such as Arctic Animals, Community Helpers, and Career Week provide opportunities to connect academic goals with real-world wonder.
Children also enjoy time outdoors, art exploration, and age-appropriate group learning that supports both academic and spiritual growth. Our goal is to provide a balanced foundation where each child feels loved, capable, and eager to learn more every day.

I am a sixth-year teacher at The Learning Center and am currently pursuing my degree in Early Childhood Education because I am passionate about continuing to grow as an educator. My husband and I live in Burlington with our two boys, ages 8 and 5. When I'm not at school, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my family, hosting game nights, and gardening.
I love helping little ones learn, grow, and discover new things each day while sharing the love of Jesus with them. One of my favorite parts of teaching is watching the incredible growth that takes place throughout the year-- academically, socially, and emotionally.
I believe preschool should be a place where children feel loved, encouraged, and excited to learn. I can't wait to partner with your family to make this a fun, memorable, and faith-filled year for your child.

Hello! I attended and graduated from Word of Life Bible Institute and am currently pursuing a degree in Social Work from Liberty University.
I have a passion for working with young children and love watching them learn, grow, and discover new things each day. My goal is to create a classroom where every child feels safe, loved, encouraged, and excited to learn. There is nothing more rewarding than helping little ones build confidence, develop new skills, and enjoy coming to school each day.
A fun little fact about me-- I was once a student here at The Learning Center! I attended TLC as a preschooler, so it is such a special blessing to be back as a teacher now. It truly feels like coming full circle, and I'm excited to be part of your child's journey.

Hi! I am a current second-year student at Guilford Technical Community College pursuing a career in Elementary Education. I plan to transfer to the University of North Carolina at Greensboro for the final two years of my educational journey.
This is my first year at The Learning Center, and I am so grateful the Lord has blessed me with this opportunity! I love spending time with children and observing their curiosity and interests as they learn and grow. It is a joy to help young learners build confidence, develop new skills, and discover the world around them. I look forward to all the growth, laughter, and special memories this school year will bring.
