About Me

Welcome to my blog – One Kreative Kindergarten!

Hi, I’m Danielle! I am a kindergarten teacher hoping to inspire other teachers through my posts, pictures and stories. I have been teaching for a few years now and feel like I’ve grown so much in just a few short years. I am currently teaching at a private school in the Bay Area in California.

When I decided I wanted to be a teacher, I knew kindergarten would be the perfect place for me. I love going to work each day and seeing my kids’ faces light up as they tell me stories about the most random things. I live for lightbulb moments and watching my students grow in both academics and as humans. It is the best feeling watching a student who has been struggling with a concept, all of a sudden show that they have mastered the skill. Teachers really do make a difference in these little humans’ lives and I love being one of them.

More about me…

Hubby

I married to my college sweetheart, Evan. We met at Sonoma State University and dated for 6 years before getting married. He is the love of my life and the best human I know. We got married in Lake Tahoe which is our home away from home and our number one weekend getaway.

Kingston

We added a fur baby (Kingston) to our family and I am loving being a dog mom. Kingston has added so much love and a bit of chaos to our lives and I wouldn’t want it any other way. My favorite times with him are in the morning when the hubby is still sleeping and we cuddle on the couch while I drink my latte.

  

Crafts

I love anything where I get to use my creativity… crafting, painting, quilting (taught myself how to use a sewing machine – not well). I’m always looking for projects to do around the house. Just recently made a fall wreath with my mom. I’m also constantly asking my dad to help with some DIY projects like making a storage cabinet in the garage.

Reality TV

Reality TV is the best! Any Real Housewife Show (but mostly Beverly Hills), Vanderpump Rules, the Bachelor/Bachelorette, Survivor and Big brother are always on in my house. I also enjoy the cheesy Hallmark movies during the holidays!

Concerts

My hubby and I are concert and music festival ADDICTS! Our yearly tradition is attending Coachella in the spring with many friends. We also enjoy concerts around or in San Francisco. We love Outsidelands because we can walk from his mom’s house. It’s like a concert in our own backyard!

Wino

I am a dedicated wine drinker! I wish I took advantage of Sonoma County when I went to school at Sonoma State..but we love to visit Healdsburg and wine taste at various wineries. I unwind by pouring a healthy glass of wine and watching one of my reality shows or browsing Pinterest. I really don’t discriminate when it comes to wine. I love reds, whites, bubbles but mostly Prosecco is my favorite!

I love having this blog and connecting with other teachers. Teaching is such an important profession. I believe we should share our successes and our failures. We teach our students to be lifelong learners. It’s important that we learn and grow from each other as well!
