The Little Sprouts Room

We believe each child is a unique individual, discovering the world in his or her own way.  Like snowflakes, no two children are the same.  As teachers, it is our job to help guide the children in their classroom and facilitate their educational journey; helping to set them on the path to becoming well-rounded citizens of the world.  As teachers, it is incredibly rewarding to be a part of this discovery, not only for the children, but for the parents too.  We welcome all families to be active participants in their child’s education!

Freida, Little Sprouts Teacher

Hello! My name is Freida and I have been at The Learning Gardens since October of 2023. I love working with kids because I enjoy how each day is different. I believe children learn best through gentle and engaging learning. I am passionate about building a relationship with each child. I have worked in Early Childhood Education field since 2021 and I have worked with children aged 5 through 7.

I grew up in Los Angeles, California and moved to Madison in 2020.  I have a Husky named Mamba and in my spare time, I like to relax and workout. I speak both English and Spanish.

Kiana, Little Sprouts Teacher

Greetings! My name is Kiana, and I am a teacher in the Little Sprouts classroom. I have been working at The Learning Gardens since July 2023 and have enjoyed every minute of it. I believe children learn best from the example we give them, love, and play. I am passionate about my family and cooking, and am always looking for new foods to prepare. I love working with children because they teach me new things every day.

I have worked in early childhood education for two years, am a Level 3 on the Wisconsin Registry, and have worked with children ranging in age from infants to five years old. In my spare time, I love to cook, exercise, go rock climbing, and rapid water kayaking.

My favorite quote is, “Focus on the step in front of you, not the whole staircase.” – Unknown
