My name is Layla Schott and this is my first year teaching at St. Peter's. I was introduced to St. Peter's when my oldest child attended preschool.  All three of my children attended this wonderful program and I was also a board member during that time.  I fell in love with the warm, nurturing environment and philosophy of the school along with the loving and supportive staff. I'm thrilled to be back now as a teacher in the young 3's class.
I received my Associates Degree in Early Childhood Education at Bergen Community College, and my Bachelors Degree as well as my Teacher of the Handicapped Certification at Montclair State University.  Before having my three girls, I taught Children with Autism for 10 years in a private school in Paramus.  I also just recently taught children ages 0-3 years old in Early Intervention.  
I love working with children and I'm looking forward to a great year getting to know your children and watching them grow.
