Lead Teacher 

since 2017

Hi, my name is Miss Nikki! 

​

While I have many roles in the classroom, my favorite one is running the art program at LMP.

​

I completed my education at Sacramento State with an Early Childhood Development Associate Teacher Permit and a B.A in Sociology.  My education also includes an A.A degree in interdisciplinary studies: Teacher Education Preparation.  I have worked as a para educator for young children and have many years of experience in preschool classrooms.  I enjoy guiding children and assisting them in building a strong foundation for their academics and education.  A fun fact about me is that I was the very first employee hired at Little Magpies Preschool! 

Lead Teacher

since 2018

Hello, I'm Miss Jennifer! 

​

I'm the writing and numbers teacher at Little Magpies Preschool and also help create the sensory and dramatic play activities.  I love coming up with new and engaging activities for your child every day. 

​

I have completed my early childhood education and am continuing at Sacramento State to obtain my teaching credentials.  I have worked in various settings with children in both preschools and elementary schools.  I think children should be cherished as they are the future of our world! Some of the things I love include reading a good book, quality time with family, meditation and the ocean.

Hi, my name is Miss Sarah! 

​

I am the science teacher at LMP and am so exited to watch your children explore and grow! I have a passion for science and love planning daily activities that are engaging and enriching.  I am passionate about instilling a love of learning in children.

​

I began teaching preschool over 8 years ago and absolutely love it.  I have a Bachelor's degree in Child Development with a concentration in Early Developmental Care and Education.  When I'm not teaching you can find me curling up with my two cats, reading and crocheting in one of the local coffee shops or out exploring Sacramento! 

Part Time Lead Teacher 

since 2023

Hi, I’m Miss Karla! 

​

I recently received my Bachelor’s degree in child development at California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. I am looking forward to further my education and obtain my teaching credentials in the near future! I have an extensive history working with preschool children, and my favorite part is getting to know what makes every child unique!

 

In my free time, you can find me going on walks with my dog, spending quality time with friends and family, and exploring new coffee shops to see where I can find the best matcha

Substitute Teacher

since 2020

Hi, I'm Miss Emma! 

​

I have been a part time teacher for little magpies since 2020.  My current role with LMP is a substitute teacher while I work on finishing my degree.

​

I was born and raised in Sacramento and am currently in school full time to obtain my degree in Early Childhood Education.  I have many years of experience in preschool classrooms and have a special love for working with preschool age children.  Some of my favorite things to do outside of work are traveling and spending time with family and friends.
