Brittany Doherty

Teacher

Brittany has been at Puddle Duck since 2008. She was an assistant during college, then became teacher certified, and is now the preschool teacher. Thanks to Brittany’s three years as a floating assistant at the school, she understands the running of each classroom and how important it is for each teacher to plan a curriculum that helps develop the whole child in preparation for the next stage of learning.  Learning to share, self-help skills and potty training are the three most important milestones for Brittany in the preschool.  She plans a curriculum that is cognitively age appropriate and tackles these three milestones. Each child gains confidence in all other areas of development when he/she masters these skills.
