Julie Rodgers is the Teacher for the Preschool and Toddler class. Julie believes that providing a learning environment that supports children to develop skills necessary to construct their own knowledge will help them prepare for their next school environment.

She uses developmentally appropriate practices to provide a safe, supportive and nurturing environment where children develop physically, socially, emotionally and cognitively. All learning activities are presented through play. These activities engage the children so they can explore, experiment, imitate, ask questions and be questioned to further their thinking and problem solving skills.

Julie has been teaching at the Co-op since 2008 but has been helping famlies and caring for children for many years. She is married and has two grown children.
