Hi Everyone! My name is Nicole Soloduik (or Mrs. S).  I have my Bachelor of Education Degree, my Special Education Certificate, and my Early Childhood Educator Certificate Level 1. I began my teaching career teaching Grades 1-3, but I was granted the opportunity to teach Pre-K and Kindergarten and I realized that Pre-K/Preschool is where I am meant to be! I am married and although I have no children of my own, I am blessed with many nieces and nephews. I also have a pet bird named Luna that I hope you can all meet someday soon! I also have a passion for art. Colouring, drawing, and doing crafts is something I love to share with my students! My goal as your Preschool teacher is to provide an environment that is safe, fun, and loving. I hope to instill confidence in your children as they learn to interact with one another, develop listening skills, learn to follow rules and instructions and most importantly, how to play and explore in the classroom! I want them to be excited about school and to become life-long learners. Each day will include calendar, story-time, group activities, crafts, music, movement, and time outside. My goal is to make our days both fun and educational. I am so excited to get to know you, your children and grow and learn together in the Mother Teresa Preschool Community!
