Janet has been in the ECE field for over 20 years and loves to share her knowledge, ideas and zest for creativity with others.
Chantel believes that early childhood spaces should be filled with beauty and wonder and that we should replace the “plastics” usually found there with open ended natural materials that encourage children’s creativity and challenges their imaginations. Chantel loves a good book (either adult or children’s), a fast horse, shopping, doing consecutive cartwheels on the grass, colored flats and all things shiny! She is owned and loved by her Jack Russell, Molly and Paint Horse, Forrest. Chantel is the Executive Director of Cartwright and District Early Learning Centre.
