Our teachers
We are a parent-run playschool and that means there really is an entire team that works together to make this school happen. Our team includes our teachers, the volunteer parents who step up to work as part of our Board, and the families who attend our school. The Chestermere Community Playschool has excellent teachers guiding our little ones along. Mrs. Emily and Ms. Jenn have been working hard all summer to make this year an extra special one. We can't wait for you to meet them!
Emily Fitzgerald
Hi! I’m Emily Fitzgerald - Ms. Emily to the students and Mommy to my own two boys! I graduated from Mount Royal University with my Bachelor of Applied Child Studies Degree as well as my Child Development Supervisor Certification (Level 3). I started teaching at the Playschool in September of 2013.
There are a number of things I love about my job, but one of my favourite things about teaching at the Playschool is the gym and outdoor time! I am an active person, so I love that we have the opportunity everyday to work on our gross motor skills while also burning off a little energy at the same time! :) I truly love my job and feel so lucky to make special connections with the students and their families!
Jennifer Cross
Hi everyone, I'm Ms. Jenn! I have been teaching at the Preschool since 2019. Prior to that I worked as a Child Development Facilitator. I have 5 years experience in that position where I specialized in behavior, speech/language development, as well as fine and gross motor development.
​
Alberta born and raised, I have lived in the Calgary area since I was 10 years old, currently living in Langdon with my husband, two children (13 & 16) and our two dogs. As a family we love camping, fishing, and playing board games. I have many years experience volunteering in my community as a Girl Guide leader and at my children's schools.

Ms. Emily and I are such a gerat team! We love working together to create a safe and fun space for your kids to learn.
