About Ms. Holly

A small, thoughtful classroom, where children learn through play.

I started teaching Pre-School fifteen years ago, when my own kids were little. It began as a way to earn money while staying home with them. I finished my Associates coursework in Early Childhood Education while running my first program, but when we moved to South Carolina during the pandemic I needed a break and took a couple years off to recharge.

Then a local Montessori school needed some teachers. I took the job, and remembered how much I missed the work.

Ms. Holly's Pre-School brings together everything I've learned over the years. A small classroom, a curriculum I've grown, and the time to notice how each child learns best.
