Tina Stewart, M. Ed.

Credential: Masters in Prek through Fourth 

Owner/Director

 

Thank you for visiting Tiny Miracles Learning Center!  This is my DREAM COME TRUE!  Tiny Miracles was a vision I had for as long as I can remember.  There is no place else I would EVER be!  I started to pursue my dream in 1992, when I graduated from Cardinal O'Hara High School and enrolled in Delaware County Community College.  I received an Associate’s Degree in Early Childhood Education.  From there I went on to teach preschool for 4 years, but still had the drive to open my own school.  With my goal in mind, I enrolled in the CHUBB Institute and received a certificate for Computer Technical Support.  I worked for an insurance company, for about 8 years, in the Information Technology Department.  After earning and saving enough money, Tiny Miracles Learning Center became a reality in 2007.  Since then, I've completed my Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood Education Administration at Ashford University and my Master's Degree in PreK and Primary Education at NOVA Southeastern University.  I also hold a PA Private School Teaching Certification.  Since opening my doors in 2007, I have been welcomed into the lives of the most amazing children and families.  I cannot thank these families enough, for trusting me with their most precious gifts, their children.  It is a true honor.  I look forward to doing this and meeting many more families for many years to come!

Lisa Meo,

Credential: Child Development Associate-Infant/Toddler

Infant Teacher

Infant/Toddler Supervisor

 

Hello, I am Miss Lisa.  I am the mother of 5 children; 4 sons and 1 daughter.  I am also the proud "Memom" of 2 beautiful grandsons.  While my children were younger,  I was a hard working, stay at home mom.  During that time I gained experience working with groups of children, by having an in-home childcare service.  After all of my children were off to school, I worked for 10 years, in the Upper Darby School District, as cafeteria staff.  In September 2010, I joined the Tiny Miracles team as an Infant Room Teacher's Assistant.  I was soon promoted to the Lead Infant Teacher and that is where I remain today.  I have obtained my Child Development Associate (CDA) with an emphasis on infants and toddlers.  I enjoy watching the Infants learn and grow into busy Toddlers.

Arianna Stewart

Volunteer/Aide

Arianna has been a part of Tiny Miracles, for most of her life.  She is the youngest daughter of Tina Stewart (owner).  Arianna spends her summer vacations, holiday breaks from school, half days, and any other chance she can get, with the children of Tiny Miracles.  While most teenagers are at the mall or out with friends, Arianna chooses to spend any free time helping the teachers at TMLC and loving the children of TMLC.  Whether she is playing with the infants, running errands for the teachers, or just sharing a snack with a toddler, Arianna is a natural teacher and caregiver.  All of the children know her by the name "Rah-Rah" and are extremely excited when they see her.  It is safe to say, Arianna will be the next TMLC full time teacher, in the family.

Jill Bedrosian, (Mom-Mom)/Cook

My name is Jill Bedrosian.  Most people know me as Mom-Mom-Jill.  The children LOVE when they see me since I prepare all of the meals and snacks for all of the Tiny Miracles.  I have worked at Tiny Miracles since the beginning.  I have been blessed to watch one of my children (Tina Stewart) fulfill her dream.  Opening a school has been something Tina talked about for as long as I can remember.  I am so happy that I am able to be a part of this extended family.
