Karen Guerin
is the director of Mt. Taylor Children's Center. She has been working with children in Sonoma County since 1979. She has worked with children ages 2-10 years but found her passion to be with preschool children. Karen started working at Mt. Taylor in 1999 as a Three's teacher. She later became a Pre K teacher then Director. What she appreciates most about working at Mt. Taylor is that all children are treated as an individual. Her goal is to help every child feel accepted, safe and comfortable at school. it is important to her that children move on from our program with a strong sense of self and confidence that they can take with them wherever they go.
Our Purpose
Our purpose is to provide a safe and caring environment in which each child may develop socially, emotionally, cognitively and physically at his or her own rate. We will assist each child in that growth by providing consistent loving direction, appropriate activates and encouragement. We also serve as a resource for parents. Our average ratio is one Early Childhood Educator for every eight children.
Our Goal
Our goal is to provide the highest quality care, guidance and education of young children in an atmosphere of love, respect and cooperation. We believe that through being responsive to children's emotional, intellectual, physical and developmental needs, they will develop a positive self-esteem, confidence and a caring attitude toward others.
