Taylor Denny

Hey, my name is Taylor. I’m 20 years old. I was born and raised in Johnville, NB and just recently moved to Woodstock to be closer to work! Being the eldest child by four years really kind of started my love for teaching. With living in such a rural area, my sister and I grew up extremely close and still are!

When I started school, my parents enrolled me into sports. (Basketball and soccer). I played both of them until I graduated. In high school, I coached younger children for both soccer and basketball. I loved coaching and watching the children improve and learn knew things, this was a huge influence on what I decided to take after high school.

After graduating from Carleton North, I attended NBCC for Early Childhood Education. I graduated from my class with honours, and began to work in my final practicum placement, which was WCA Childcare!

Since then, I added Lila, my German Shepherd, to my family! She’ll be two in June!

 My favourite season is summer

 “Most of what children need to learn durning their early childhood years cannot be taught: it’s discovered through play.”                                                                              -Ruth Wilson

 My favourite thing to do is go on adventures and for drives

 “Children are not things to be moulded, but people to be unfolded.”                                                                                - Jess Lair

 I knew I wanted to be a teacher since I was 5
