Hello! We are currently enrolling for our 2025-2026 academic school year. I look forward to meeting our new families! I am very passionate about early childhood education and hope to instill a love of learning in all our students both academically and spiritually. Here is a little about me: I was born and raised in Lafayette, LA. I attended UL Lafayette and graduated in May 2007, with a B.A. of Science, in Hospitality Management. After marrying, my husband Matthew in 2013, I decided to convert my degree into a teaching certification through UL Lafayette's alternative certification program, in Early Childhood Education. After becoming certified in 2016, I began working in Ascension Parish Schools teaching Pre-K 4. In 2019, I wanted more time with my two young children. My goal was to find a place where they could attend and I could teach, and that is when I found St. Patrick Preschool. During my first year, I had a delightful time teaching alongside an amazing staff and working with a wonderful group of students. As a bonus, being across the hallway from my own children has been a great blessing. At St. Patrick, we have a "hidden gem" right behind our church. That gem is our half day pre-school. We provide quality education in a faith-filled environment in order to achieve early success and school readiness for all children. We learn a lot and have a blast. Please e-mail me with any questions or to set up a tour.
Our Facility
All of our classrooms are the same size and have the same layout. Each room has its own access to a bathroom. Two classrooms share one bathroom. Our children love our playground! It has a variety of equipment to play on. On rainy days, the children are able to run around in the gym and get those wiggles out in place of our outdoor playground time! We have play items we bring in the gym, like balls, hoola hoops, and balancing blocks. We also utilize our gym for various events during the school year.
