At Little Cube Montessori we believe that positive early experiences in education will inspire a life-long love of learning in children.

has a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Manitoba, a Commercial Art Certificate and a three-year certificate in Business Management. She has received her ECE Assistant license through Selkirk College and is currently finishing off her full ECE certificate.
She was a stay-at-home mom for many years prior to starting this preschool 8 years ago. It was being at home with her two daughters, seeing the advantages and value in a Montessori preschool for her children’s self confidence and independence and in her extensive volunteering in their primary school years that made her realize the importance of quality Early Childhood Education and the impact that a teacher has on a child’s love of learning from their very first steps into a school type program.
Ms. Kim’s extensive volunteer work within her community not only awarded her with the Port Coquitlam Volunteer of the Year in 2014 but it also has inspired her to incorporate into her teachings the importance of philanthropy through volunteer work, giving back and supporting one’s community and those within it. This has led to Little Cube’s support of businesses in the community, SHARE and a Children’s Dental Program that offers free dental to low-income school aged children.
Ms. Kim adores animals-spoiling her dog and the preschool’s two guinea pigs (Chester & Patches), loves to garden at home and in the preschool garden, and loves to be artistically creative. She shares and incorporates all of these passions of hers with the children in her center on a daily basis.

Ms. Jasmine received her Early Childhood Educator diploma from Ontario in 2019 and worked there as a Registered Early Childhood Educator before moving to British Columbia. She has worked in a variety of early learning programs over the past 6 years, all with different curriculums and learning philosophies. Her own personal philosophy of early learning is aligned with aspects of the Montessori approach, as it prepares the children not only for kindergarten or school but for life.
She feels her job is very important and fun and loves being around children, learning with them and from them; "it gives me the ability and opportunity to make a positive impact in their lives". Jasmine's favorite part of working with children is bonding with them and getting to know all their different personalities; "I enjoy exploring the environment with the children, seeing things through their eyes, and reading stories while engaging with them".
Outside of work, she is a nature enthusiast, exploring the beautiful nature around us every chance she can get. She also likes to read fiction in her free time.
