Who We Are

Experience with Children: 30+ yrs
I am Susan Burbank, I grew up in Waitsfield and I raised both of my daughters here in Waitsfield. I have been in Early Education for over 30 years. There are not many occupations that allow you to look for bugs on a nice summer day, catch snowflakes on your tongue, read the same book over and over and over, LOL. Give a warm and comforting hug, sing songs all day and belly laugh with a group of children. All while teaching, guiding and encouraging life skills, kindness and love for our Earth, for Animals and for each other. I am happy to be joining NOW and look forward to spending the day with your children. Susan ❤️

Montessori Diploma in Early Childhood Education. I adore Children and animals and love everything about nature. I have been a teacher for 35 plus years! I gee up in Rhode Island and later move to San Diego California where I raised my 2 grown children. My husband and I moved to Vermont in May of 2024. To be with family.We have 5 Grandchildren! Children are rays of sunshine beaming to learn and soak up knowledge like a sponge. I am here to provide them with a loving and safe environment and many wonderful learning experiences both indoors and out! I love children with my whole heart and guide them with positive and a fun environment to learn filled with play and structure. I am here for them to learn to problem solve , have compassion , kindness and respect for all. Children are great imitators so we as teachers must give them something great to imitate. I look forward to having many memorable moments with your children!
