Meet Our Lead Teacher, Lucinda
At Kids First, our passionate lead teachers are at the heart of every kindergarten program. They create warm, inclusive environments where children feel safe, supported and inspired to explore, learn and grow.
Lucinda brings a joyful, thoughtful approach to early learning. She loves fostering strong connections with each child and encourages exploration through play, imagination and meaningful relationships.
“I am very passionate about the education of young children and facilitating for their future education. I believe in creating learning environments for all children inclusive of their learning skills and abilities. I am always trying to find new and innovative ways to extend on my existing knowledge on children and my teaching practice.”
