Guiding Little Minds: How Your Journey Preschool Teachers Make a Difference

In Howard County, Maryland

As parents, we often hear that the early years are crucial for a child's development. But what truly makes these years impactful? The answer lies in the educators who guide, nurture, and inspire our little ones. At Your Journey School in Glenwood, Maryland, our dedicated teachers are more than just instructors—they are mentors, caregivers, and partners in your child's growth.

The Role of Preschool Teachers

Preschool teachers lay the foundation for a child's lifelong learning journey. They do more than teach ABCs and 123s; they:

  • Foster Emotional Development: By creating a safe and supportive environment, teachers help children understand and express their emotions.

  • Encourage Social Skills: Through group activities and play, children learn to share, cooperate, and resolve conflicts.

  • Promote Cognitive Growth: Teachers introduce concepts in math, science, and literacy in a fun and engaging way, sparking curiosity and critical thinking.

  • Instill Confidence: Positive reinforcement and individualized attention help children build self-esteem and a love for learning.

At Your Journey preschool, our educators embody these roles daily, ensuring that each child feels valued and supported.

“Our toddler went to YJNP and truly enjoyed his time there. The caregivers are friendly and truly care about the children and build relationships with them. They cater to each child's personalities. Miss Lexie, the owner, is incredibly kind and bubbly and adores the kids in her preschool. Our toddler learned a great deal while there and we loved how busy they kept him throughout the day. We recommend this preschool for a safe, social, and educational environment for babies and preschoolers.”
