MARY
Office Manager & Play Coach
I enjoy working with children and creating a fun environment that is tailored to the children’s needs and personalities. I truly love connecting with and learning so much from the amazing families I have met throughout the years, and I look forward to meeting many more at Play My Way. In my free time I enjoy long walks, baking, going to concerts, and having a fun night out with friends at Karaoke! I am fluent in English and Spanish and I am always looking to learn more languages!

With a background as a behavior consultant working with kids on the spectrum, Tammie is flexible and always ready to do whatever she can to ensure everyone leaves happy!
ALEJANDRA
Art Director
I am an architect like my father, so I grew up highly motivated by Art, Design and Creativity. After exploring and working with glass, paint, ceramics and other materials, I established myself as a Mixed Media Artist. Then I got the beautiful opportunity to be a Special Needs Mixed Media Educator which changed my career and life. The special needs population teaches me how to be a better person and how to put all my heart in their hands. In my free time I love to cook and outdoor sports like running, mountain bike riding and spending time with my family. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish.

I am so excited to be a play coach at Play My Way! I look forward to making fun and memorable moments with everyone who comes through the door! I love working with kids and creating a space where they can have fun, feel safe and be themselves.

ALEJANDRA "ALEX"
Play Coach
Hi I'm Alex! Before coming to Play My Way, I was a preschool teacher. My passion for teaching guided me to study the Montessori Method, to help our kids reach their autonomy and explore their capabilities.
I love doing puzzles, playing Jenga and I'm really good at hide and seek.
I look forward to showcasing what I do best at Play My Way.

Hi! I'm Diana, and I love working with children and helping them feel confident, supported, and excited to play. My favorite spots at Play My Way are the art room and the trampoline!! The art room is a great space to explore creativity and try new crafts out! I love jumping and dancing on the trampoline! In my free time I enjoy reading books, taking care of my plants, listening to music, and going to the zoo. I am also fluent in Spanish and English.
