Staff

Hello, I am Ann Woodyard. I have been teaching at Sutherland Preschool for the last 20 years as a classroom supervisor, and more recently, also as manager. It is a privilege to work with dedicated and talented staff as we seek to design a program that will engage the children in our care in a rewarding preschool experience. My desire is to help each child grow to their greatest potential in an atmosphere of love and support. I feel blessed to work with these delightful little people.

Hi, I am Shirley Crichton. Originally from South Africa, I gained experience there running my own family daycare and teaching preschool. After re-locating to Canada I earned my ECCE certificate at Capilano College.I have taught at Sutherland Preschool since Sept 2004. This has included providing aide to children who have required extra support.. I especially enjoy incorporating dance and creative movement into the classroom. I consider it a great privilege to teach, and be taught, by the young citizens of the world.

Hello my name is Kristen Braun (nee: Timmer) and I am a licensed Early Childhood Educator. I have taught at Sutherland Preschool for the past nine years. During my time at Sutherland I have worked as an assistant, a supervisor and an aide for children who require extra support. I believe that each child is an individual with the potential to impact the world around them; both now and in the years to come! I am in the process of working towards my degree in Early Childhood Care and Education at Capilano University.
