Ruth is a native of Mexico City who moved to Arizona in 2003. Her professional background is in Marketing, and she is also the person behind the art gallery and all the events at our school. Ruth's focus is on learning through everyday activities, fun songs, mindfulness, books, and dancing. She is a Certified 200-hr. yoga teacher and Kids Yoga Instructor — her classes are a mix of Spanish, dance, and games. She has practiced yoga for over 25 years and has lived in France, where she became fluent in French.

Ana was born in Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico and moved to Arizona in 2012. She has a degree in Educational Sciences and taught Kindergarten for 7 years. Being the 2s class the first school experience for many children, Ms. Ana makes sure every student feels loved and nurtured. She is very patient and fun, and her goal is to inspire children to learn another language and culture. Ms. Ana loves children and crafting.

Tionna was born in Brooklyn, New York and moved to Arizona to finish high school, where she discovered a passion for learning and teaching others. She finds working with kids to be very fulfilling and hopes to foster an environment where children can grow socially and emotionally. She loves to dance, draw, and even cook with kids — because learning should always be fun!

Ms. LeighAnn is an Arizona native (with a little Seattle spice!) who brings joy, creativity, and lots of curiosity into the classroom. She's a proud mom to a 13-year-old daughter. Her journey to teaching started as a computer programmer, then as a wellness practitioner with a degree in Transformational Psychology — bringing calming tools into her classroom to help little ones navigate big feelings. She's also a creative at heart and has self-published books.

Erin was born in San Diego, California and moved to Arizona in 2010. She has over 15 years of experience with children and is patient, nurturing, organized, and friendly. You'll see her during pick-up time in the AM classes through the end of sessions, helping with payments and guiding families through what we do — always with a smile!
