I’m an engineer by training and a natural tinkerer at heart. I love asking questions, experimenting, and thinking outside the box—and that curiosity is what inspired me to create TOBschool, a place where children learn by doing, exploring, and discovering the world around them. My passion for hands-on learning extends beyond the classroom. I write children’s books focused on project-based learning and simple science concepts, helping young learners understand how things work through stories and real-world exploration. I believe children learn best when they are encouraged to explore, make mistakes, and try again. Every project and learning experience at TOBschool is thoughtfully designed to build confidence, curiosity, and problem-solving skills. I see families as true partners in a child’s learning journey. Open communication, collaboration, and trust are central to our community, and I enjoy working closely with families to support each child’s unique growth and development.

As a positive and uplifting educator dedicated to nurturing the next generation, I am deeply committed to a philosophy centered on 100% growth and nourishment. I believe this is best achieved through a strong partnership with families, working hand in hand to ensure every child receives the holistic care, encouragement, and curiosity-driven learning needed to thrive. In my classroom, I empower children to turn everyday experiences into meaningful discoveries through an inquiry-based curriculum and an “always-help” mindset. Guided by curiosity and exploration, children are encouraged to ask questions, think critically, and engage joyfully in learning. With a Master’s degree in Biotechnology and over four years of experience, I bridge scientific curiosity with early childhood development, inspiring children to explore the “why” and “how” of the world around them while building a strong foundation for lifelong learning. .

Hi, I’m Lindsay! I'm the TOBschool Office Manager and critical thinker who loves thinking outside the box and keeping things running smoothly. I enjoy learning something new every day and supporting our amazing children, families, and staff.  Early childhood education is close to my heart, and I love working alongside parents to support each child’s growth. Helping children build confidence, discover new skills, and shine in their own unique ways is one of my favorite parts of each day. Originally from Maryland, I’ve happily called Tennessee home for over 20 years. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Sociology, with a background in leadership, business management, and preschool education. I look forward to being a friendly, organized, and smiling face that welcomes everyone into our preschool each day. Fun fact: Math is my favorite subject—because it’s everywhere! From counting little fingers to keeping our school running efficiently, I love using math every day.
