I am delighted to have your child in Poco Village Early Learning Centre and honoured to be a director. I was born in Korea and lived there. I graduated from a university and achieved a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. Over 25 years, I have had several experiences within different grade levels, classrooms as  a teacher and director. I had run my own daycare centre and academy for more than 18 years as a working mom.  One day my son asked me to study abroad. After thinking for a long time, I quit my business and came  to Canada. However, it was not long before I would like to work as a teacher again. So I started to look around Vancouver for a daycare centre. I came across a beautiful center right here in Port Coquitlam! So, I decided to have a new journey as a Poco Village Early Learning Centre Director.
