My name is Michelle Tucker and I am the Owner/Principal of Little Munchkins Preschool.

With me always wanting to own my own school one day, I made it a reality in 2014 and have loved every minute of it.

My passion for teaching started at a very young age. When I was 16 years old, I started working as an assistant teacher in the afternoons at a Nursery school here in the South. I made up my mind that it’s definitely what I would like to do as a career one day. After matriculating I went on to study at Wits University and I completed my Bachelors Degree in Primary and Pre-Primary Education (BPrimEd). After qualifying I went on to complete my level 2 in First Aid training.

In 2006 I went on to teach at a very good Government school where I taught Grade 3 and Grade 1. I taught there for 9 years in total.

From there I opened up my own preschool and it has truly been a dream come true for me, as I can use all that I have learnt in the years to help shape and motivate little ones to be all that they are capable of being.

I look forward to many more fun-filled, exciting and joyous years ahead with you and your children.
