Meet the Teacher

Hi, my name is Gina Gamboa. I am from Snowflake Arizona. My family and I moved here beginning of August. I have a 6 year old little girl and a passion for working with kids. I have been working with children since 2015. My goals are to build roots with my family here in Texas and continue my journey in childcare. I believe it is so important for children to have play based learning where they can interact with toys and art each day and build on their skills.

I grew up in Shreveport, Louisiana and graduated from highschool in 2019. I've been working in childcare for the last two years and really enjoy it! My goal is to work a career that I love and to provide care to others that need it. I want to further my experience and knowledge in this field. My philosophy is that bond building is the most important part of childhood education. Having a good relationship with both the children and their families are the basic building blocks for creating a strong learning environment. I look forward to meeting everyone and developing that bond!

I was born and raised in Austin, Texas. I have been a preschool teacher for 25 years. My husband Jim is a golf pro (no, I do not play golf). We have a daughter, Julia, at Angelo State University where she will continue her volleyball career. 

My goals at Mrs. Amy's Adventures is to provide a safe, loving, and fun classroom where toddlers can get messy while they explore and learn. I want every child and parent to feel supported.

I believe every child is special and unique in their own way. I want to make sure they are surrounded by fun, positive energy.

My name is Breida, and I am in the toddler room! I graduated from Liberty Hill High in 2016 and am currently enrolled in Austin Community College majoring in Education. I’ve always enjoyed working with children and knew it would be something I wanted to make a career out of. 

My goal working here is to gain as much experience and learn as much as I can, turning every situation into a learning event for both myself and my students. I plan on incorporating Spanish to our toddler program to help expand the children’s communication skills. I believe in a play-based program because I have witnessed much success in children building their confidence, creativity, and social emotional skills while attending our school. I am so excited to be working with your child!

Hello, my name is Ashley, I am originally from California and moved to Liberty Hill, TX about two years ago. I have 3-4 years of experience in childcare. I believe that making the family feel safe with their child in the classroom is very important. I am excited to get to know all the families and their little ones. I hope to bring my enthusiam into the classrooms and look forward to helping all of them learn each and every day.

My ultimate goal is to one day become a mother and to learn more about the early stages of childcare. I also want to be able to make lasting impressions on a child as they learn and grow. 

I believe that early childhood education is very important. When children are able to interact with other children and are able to make connections while learning is so great to witness. 

Hello! I’m a born and raised Texan who loves working with children. I’m an artist and a huge dog lover. I played sports my whole life and I can honestly say this is the best team I have ever been a part of. I want to teach children to enjoy learning and know how fun it can be! It is never too early or too late to learn anything. My goal is to expand the little minds of children and help them reach their fullest potential. Children will always remember how someone made them feel, I want my students to feel like they are capable of great things, because they really are!

Ms. Kristen

Preschool Teacher

I am coming to Texas from South Dakota where my love of childcare began. I graduated high school in 2009 in Minnesota and went on to the Minnesota Army National Guard where I served for 10 years working with computer systems. My husband and I recently moved to Texas with our 8 year old and 5 year old sons. For the last 9 years I have worked in childcare where watching children grow and learn has brought me the most joy. 

My goal is to create an environment that is both safe and enriching for our children. I am passionate about children's social emotional development and so I strive to make learning fun and enjoyable for every child in my care.

I believe that children learn best through meaningful play. Each child is an individual with different needs and as an educator I will foster an environment that recognizes each child's strengths, abilities, needs and learning style.
