Your Preschool in Redwood City

Teacher Lisandra

Infant Teacher

Hello, I'm Miss Lisandra Galeana, I have been a preschool teacher for 6 months. I've recently graduated from college where I obtained my ECE Certificate as well as CPR and First Aid and general training certificates. You can never stop learning so I am still taking classes at College so I can continue to grow as a teacher.

Working with children is my passion and is something that makes me happy! In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, especially with my son who is my inspiration and my motivation to keep growing as a teacher and mom.

I have a quote that I apply in my life which is ‘ ONE CHILD, ONE TEACHER, ONE BOOK, ONE PEN CAN CHANGE THE WORLD”. Which I believe is a good inspiration for all the teachers.

It is very rewarding to be able to care for these young lives and being able to support them to have a healthy and happy childhood experience. I have a passion for teaching these young minds and helping their personalities, curiosities and ideas thrive.

Growing up I was surrounded by many young family members and being able to nurture and show them tender care inspired my interest in working with infants and children. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my own son who is 10 years old and my husband. I also enjoy going to the movie theater, playing soccer and cooking.
