Amy Joy was born and raised on the south shore of Long Island. She has studied and lived in Buffalo, Israel, San Francisco, and New York City. Amy returned to Long Island with her husband and their 2 year old daughter, Adrea, last year. They enjoy exploring all beaches they can find, cooking, playing board games, and traveling. Amy always knew she wanted to be a teacher despite finding traditional school curriculums uninspiring. In 2012, while living in California she found Montessori and received her Lower Elementary Certification; it was the fit she longed for and would continue to thrive in. She spent several years teaching Lower Elementary in California and then New York City. What Amy didn’t know, was that there was a special place nestled on the north shore of Long Island that could speak to both the Montessori Amy and the outdoors Amy. She is so grateful to be part of the Love of Learning community
