Lead Preschool Teacher - River District
Hello - I was born and raised in Austria, where I graduated from the Federal Educational Institute for Kindergarten Pedagogy, specializing in Early Childhood Education, Child Psychology and Didactics, with an emphasis on 3-7 year olds. I have over 20 years of experience in working with children of all different ages and cultures and have been with LLCA since 2020. Before joining the amazing team at Liberty Lake Children's Academy, I taught at a local Montessori pre-school for seven years.
I have a wonderful son named Sam, who enjoys helping me decorate my classroom. He is very creative and likes to build pieces for our dramatic life area. He recently graduated from high school and will be going to Aviation School in the fall, but he started out here at LLCA. He loves this preschool as much as I do. In our free time we enjoy the outdoors; we like to hike, pick huckleberries, bike, kayak, camp and ski. Once a year we fly home to visit our family in Europe.
I am excited to work with your children, get to know them better, and help them reach their full potential. It never ceases to amaze me how much information our little ones can soak up, and how quickly and playfully they learn in a positive and stimulating environment!

Miss Kathy
Lead PreK Teacher - River District
Hi, my name is Kathy – or Miss Kathy as the children call me. I grew up in the midwest and received a Bachelor’s of Science from Eastern Michigan University in Elementary Special Education. After college, I moved to Las Vegas to pursue my teaching career, and I've taught in the classroom for over 14 years. I continued my education at UNLV where I received a Master’s degree in Special Education.
My husband and I moved to the Liberty Lake in 2003. At that time, I chose to stay at home with my children. My husband Eric is a physical therapist. We have two children, Ethan and Hannah. My family loves to ski in the winters and camp in the summers. We feel very blessed to live in such a welcoming community. I have loved getting back into the education field and working with children at Liberty Lake Children’s Academy, and am now entering my 13th year as Lead Teacher. I can’t wait to meet your children and look forward to providing you and your child with a positive and fun learning experience.

Lead PreK Teacher - Liberty Lake
Hi, I'm Miss Kelsey! I’m a Pre-K teacher at Liberty Lake Children’s Academy, and I’ve been lucky enough to be part of the LLCA family for ten years. This is my second year as a lead teacher, and I truly love what I do. Working with young children and helping them grow, learn, and get ready for kindergarten is such a joy.
I believe kids need to feel safe and loved in order to take risks and really engage in learning. I work hard to create a classroom where they feel supported, encouraged, and excited to try new things. Learning should be fun—and that’s exactly what I aim for every day!
I grew up in the Seattle area and moved to Liberty Lake in 2012. These days, I live in Spokane Valley with my husband and our cat. When I’m not in the classroom, I love spending time outdoors, relaxing with a good book, or enjoying time with family and friends. LLCA has become such a special part of my life, and I’m so grateful to be doing what I love every day.

| Miss Molly
Lead PreK Teacher - Liberty Lake
Hello! My name is Miss Molly and I am so excited to be teaching at LLCA. I grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. My Family relocated here in the summer of 2018 and it was the best decision we made. My husband and I have three boys (one of which is a LLCA graduate!) and have loved living in the Liberty Lake Community. I went to school at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Socioeconomics and Politics. Throughout my studies, I was able to develop strong skills in critical thinking, global awareness, and interpersonal communication with the study of Human Development—qualities that are highly valuable in nurturing young children’s curiosity, emotional intelligence, and social development. My degree equips me with a unique lens to create inclusive, equitable classroom environments that celebrate diversity and promote cooperation from an early age.
I also bring enthusiasm, patience, and a genuine passion for early childhood development. My ability to engage with children at their developmental level, while also introducing foundational concepts of sharing, fairness, and empathy, makes me well-suited and very eager to guide and support pre-K learners in their formative years. I have been an assistant teacher at LLAC for the last 4 years and am very excited this year to use all that I have learned into creating the best learning environment for your little ones. I can’t wait to meet you and your family in the coming year!
