Ji Hyun Shin

Ji Hyun Shin or “Tee” as we like to call her, is an experienced early childhood educator with several years of experience dedicated to fostering young children's growth and development. Tee is passionate about play based learning and helping young children grow while encouraging their natural curiosity and creativity in a supportive environment. She finds it incredibly rewarding to see how young children develop skills and confidence over time. Tee also enjoys building strong relationships with her co-workers, the children and their families.

Tee can be found creating engaging environments and facilitating unique activities and experiences for the little ones in her care that promote exploration and curiosity. Her favorite activity with the children is hands-on arts and crafts, where she can watch them express their creativity while developing skills. The bigger the mess the better! Tee has a huge warm smile, and the children absolutely adore her.

Tee has a wonderful husband and two energetic sons who keep her on her toes! In her spare time, she enjoys being with her family, going on adventures, playing games, or just enjoying a relaxed movie night at home. Fun fact about Tee is that she is CRAZY about tofu. Anything to do with tofu makes Tee smile! Tee loves animals, spending time with nature, going on walks and hikes, and finds being outside refreshing.

Tee looks forward to sharing her passions and talents with the children of Leap Forward Childcare for many years to come!
