Our Goddard School Teachers

Hi Everyone, I'm happy to welcome you to The Goddard School of Cherry Hill! I believe we have a very special school and it all starts with an amazing team. Please check out each of my team member's bio below! As for myself, I have an MBA and have worked for leading global companies in business management and am currently an adjunct professor at Seton Hall University’s business school. I believe education is an integral foundation in a child's development and am proud to be part of a Goddard system that has a proprietary curriculum! My focus is to ensure that each child at our school receives the personal touch needed to aid their development and growth in the critical early years of childhood education to set them up for life-long success! Please tour the school, meet the amazing admin and teachers, and join our Goddard family!

Hi everyone! Here’s a little about me! I hold a dual bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and History from Rowan University. After graduating, I began teaching in the public school system but soon realized I wanted a setting with more flexibility and creativity. That led me to The Goddard School, where I’ve been growing my career since 2014. I take great pride in creating a warm, nurturing, and engaging school environment while building strong relationships with children and their families. I truly believe that open communication, trust, and rapport are essential—when families feel comfortable and supported, children feel confident and ready to learn. Outside of work, I’m a mom of three boys who keep me busy with sports all around South Jersey. I also enjoy running and trying new restaurants. I’m excited to get to know you and your children and to build strong, trusting relationships. Please know I am always here for you and your family.

A little about me: I enjoy baking, reading, and decorating for the holidays. I am a New Jersey state–certified teacher with over 20 years of experience and hold a dual Bachelor’s degree in English Literature and Elementary Education. I have an amazing husband of 11 years and a beautiful daughter in second grade who is a proud Goddard alumna! Some fun facts about me: I worked at the famous Action Park while in high school, I make an incredible almond pound cake, and I love watching Christmas movies all year long. I love working with children because it truly brings me joy. My students make me smile every day, and each day is a new adventure for all of us. I want my students to know how special they are and to feel comfortable, happy, and confident so their best selves can shine through. For the families I serve, it is important to me that you know your children are safe, loved, and cared for here. Every child in our school is treated as if they were my own.

A few fun things about me: I am originally from Korea and moved to the United States during high school. I earned my Bachelor of Arts degree in Art and love being creative, even though painting isn’t my favorite! I enjoy watching movies, listening to music, and (as my students know!) dancing. I have two sisters and help my mom with her alterations business. I love working with children because they bring me so much joy. Early childhood education is my passion, and I enjoy teaching and caring for young children. As an art major, I’m excited to bring creativity into the classroom, and I love singing and introducing the Korean language to our children. My goal is to create a happy, loving, and safe classroom where children feel comfortable and families feel confident in my care.

I have been an infant teacher at The Goddard School of Cherry Hill since 2023 and previously worked with both preschool and toddler students. I enjoy gardening, sewing, and learning about holistic food and healthcare. Working with children brings me so much joy, and I love supporting their growth and development during these important early years. The children fill my days with laughter, love, and meaningful moments!

I am proud to say that I have been with Goddard since 2009. After taking time away from work to raise my children, I was excited to bring my life experiences as a loving mother and grandmother into the classroom to give our babies the very best care. While nothing can truly replace the love of a mother or grandmother, I promise to do my very best each day. The babies in my care always come first. I believe strongly in partnering with families and honoring each parent’s wishes. I take great pride and joy in providing care that closely reflects the love, routines, and values children experience at home. It is truly a joy to care for our youngest children and to make sure they feel happy, safe, and deeply loved every day.

My name is Shanece Morgan, and I have been working at The Goddard School since 2023 in the infant room.

Over the years, I have built strong and meaningful relationships with families, helping to create a warm and trusting environment for both children and parents. In addition to my love for infant care, I enjoy singing and engaging in creative crafts, which allow me to bring joy, comfort, and enrichment to the little ones I work with each day.

I truly believe that learning happens everywhere, and I love helping children develop a lifelong love for exploration.

My name is Emily, but the kids call me Emmy! I’ve been teaching at Goddard since 2023, and I’ve also spent about nine years working with a children’s theater camp. I love traveling and learning new languages, and my favorite place to visit is the beach! Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my large family, especially my little cousins, nieces, and nephews. My favorite colors are blue and purple, and I love teaching art and science, though I’m also passionate about learning history. I’m currently working toward my CDA and am excited to spend time with your children, watching them grow and learn every day!

Children need patience and understanding, and I am here to provide just that. I have been with The Goddard School since 2025 and truly enjoy cherishing the opportunities to watch your little ones grow and develop each day. In my free time, I enjoy being an artist, baker, gardener, and devoted cat enthusiast.

My name is Suneetha, though all the kids lovingly call me Miss Sunny. I’m originally from India and have a background in software engineering, but my true passion lies in teaching young children. I have been working at Goddard since 2024. Over the years, I’ve gained valuable experience working with little ones, particularly in the areas of art, math, and science. I live with my family—my husband, who is a scientist, and our middle school-aged child. Having lived in Europe for many years, I’ve developed a deep appreciation for different cultures and enjoy bringing a global perspective into the classroom. In my free time, I love traveling, cooking, gardening, and swimming. I’m excited to be part of your child’s learning journey and to share my love for discovery and creativity with them every day!

A few fun facts about me: I enjoy writing stories, playing video games, and watching anime. I come from a big, lively family and am even a proud great-aunt! I was adopted, and my adoption was finalized on Valentine’s Day. I have worked at The Goddard School of Cherry Hill since 2020! Being around children brings me so much joy—they truly brighten my day. I want every student in my care to feel safe, loved, and comforted, as if they were in the arms of a caring aunt. My goal is to create a warm, nurturing environment where children feel secure and happy. I also want families to feel at peace when dropping off their children, knowing that even after a tough goodbye, their little one will soon be smiling, feeling safe, and enjoying a fun-filled day.

A little about me - I enjoy reading and do a lot of crafting that I sell at craft fairs over the weekends. I also LOVE dinosaurs! I am happily married and a mother of three children ranging in ages from 12 through 21 years old. I hold my Childhood Development Associate's Degree and have been a professional early childhood educator for over 15 years. I have worked at The Goddard School of Cherry Hill since 2016. I believe that the most important thing an educator can do is nurture their children. My families can rest easy knowing that their children are safe with me and that their child will have fun learning. My students know that they are loved from the moment they step foot in my classroom and they can make a mess to have fun! I love seeing the faces of my students when they finally understand what I am trying to teach them!
