About

 

Welcome!

Hello! I’m Sheryl Cooper, founder and writer at Teaching 2 and 3 Year Olds.

I’m a wife, mother, teacher and author.

I love to be outdoors with our 2 dogs, walking our favorite trails, taking photos along the way, or I’m at the gym swimming 🏊 or I’m riding my bike. You can also find me relaxing while listening to jazz music, drinking an Americano ☕️, and sitting on my front porch reading a good book.

I’ve been teaching toddlers and preschoolers for over 25 years in a small private program. I’ve wanted to be a teacher ever since I can remember, but didn’t actually start my journey until after my own children were born. I was hired as an “interim” teacher for someone going on maternity leave but she decided to stay home with her new baby. Here I still am and love my preschool and my colleagues.

I love my job and learn more each year. I’ve read many Reggio Emilia books, have visited other schools that are Reggio-influenced, and love to incorporate it into our program. I also love Maria Montessori’s practical life skills and Bev Bos’ love for play. I am passionate about what I do and love to share this with others!

Our activities are all done in my toddler and preschool classroom. Come take a peek at my classroom!
