My name is Erin Fox, and I was born and raised in the beautiful Lower Mainland of British Columbia. I’m a wife, mom, and Early Childhood Educator with more than 16 years of experience, primarily in Infant and Toddler care. Becoming a mom and a teacher were always two of my biggest dreams, and I feel lucky that this career has allowed me to experience both.
Some of my favourite moments with children happen during circle time, exploratory art, sensory play, and time spent in nature. I believe wonder and curiosity are powerful parts of learning, especially during the early years. One of my favourite quotes is, “There is no other beginning of learning than wonder.”
Outside of work, my family and I love biking, swimming, hiking, camping, and playing games together. I feel truly honoured to care for, guide, and support children during such an important stage of their lives, and to share those years with their families.
My name is Kim, and I’m the manager at Pebble Lane White Rock. I’ve been an Early Childhood Educator for 15 years, and I’m continuing my studies in Infant and Toddler and Special Needs Education. I love being part of children’s early years and helping create a space where they feel comfortable, curious, and excited to learn.
My teaching philosophy is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, with a strong focus on learning through play. I enjoy creating hands-on, interest-based experiences that encourage children to explore, experiment, and make discoveries of their own. Circle time and science are two of my favourite areas to teach.
I’m also a mom to two young children. On weekends, we love going on nature walks, listening to music, and cooking or baking together. I’m excited to welcome families to Pebble Lane and help create a warm, creative, and connected learning environment.
Hi, I’m Karli. I’ve been part of Pebble Lane for more than four years and have 16 years of experience working with children. I began as a nanny, taught a variety of children’s programs, spent seven years as a preschool teacher, and later taught Junior Kindergarten before finding the more Reggio and play-based environment I was looking for at Pebble Lane.
One of my biggest passions is cooking with children. For the past 15 years, I’ve spent Saturday mornings teaching the YMCA’s Little Chefs program for children ages three to five, sharing the fun and creativity that can happen in the kitchen.
I hold my ECE License to Practice and current First Aid certification, and I’ve completed my Infant and Toddler coursework with practicums still to finish. Outside of work, I love adventures with my dog, Kaida, spending time with my niece and nephew, and dancing whenever I get the chance.
My name is Alida Callard, and I’ve been working in Early Childhood Education for almost 20 years. From early in my career, I learned how important connection and trust are in helping children feel emotionally safe, confident, and free to be themselves. I believe strong relationships create the foundation for children to learn, grow, play, and thrive.
Language is another part of early learning that means a great deal to me. Whether children communicate through words, sign language, or a combination of both, it’s exciting to watch them discover new ways to express their feelings, needs, ideas, and interests. Helping a child find their voice and begin to self-advocate is something I find incredibly meaningful.
And yes, I’m almost always singing! I also value calm and quiet when that’s what a child needs. I’m thrilled to be part of Pebble Lane and look forward to meeting you and your little one.
Hello! My name is Rachel, and I’m one of the teachers at Pebble Lane Early Learning. I’ve been surrounded by children of all ages most of my life and always felt drawn to Early Childhood Education. I’ve now been working as an Early Childhood Educator for ten years and continue to love being part of children’s growth and development.
I’m currently working toward my Infant and Toddler certification as I continue building my knowledge and skills. I believe every child is unique, and I strive to create a safe, supportive, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable learning at their own pace. Watching children reach milestones, try something new, and make their own discoveries is one of the most rewarding parts of my work.
At Pebble Lane, I look forward to building meaningful relationships with children, parents, and caregivers and sharing in the many little moments that make the early years special.
I believe strongly in a holistic approach to each child’s development—honoring their physical, emotional, social, and cognitive needs—and I ground my teaching in attachment theory, building warm, secure relationships that empower children to explore confidently.
When I’m not in the classroom, you’ll probably find me soaking up the sun at the beach, off on a fun adventure, or spending time with my favorite people—my family! I’m so excited to get to know you and your little one. We’re going to have a fantastic time learning and growing together!
My name is Rochelle Davis, and I followed my heart into the field of Early Childhood Education because of my love for children and learning. My studies led me to explore Infant and Toddler care as well as Special Needs education, helping me better understand the many different ways children learn, communicate, and experience the world.
My guiding belief is that every child is unique, and it’s my role to find an approach that supports who they are. I enjoy getting to know each child’s personality, strengths, interests, and needs, then finding creative ways to help them feel confident and successful. For me, teaching is about connection and helping children flourish in their own way.
Outside of work, I love exploring new places, trying different foods, watching movies and series, shopping, and drawing. I also enjoy spending time in the kitchen, where I can be creative while making dishes to share with the people I love.
I’m originally from Ukraine and moved to Canada in the summer of 2022, where I began a new chapter in my life and career. My first job here was in child care. I earned my Responsible Adult and First Aid certificates, worked in that role for two years, and soon realized I wanted to continue growing in Early Childhood Education.
I later completed an Early Childhood Education Assistant course, which opened the door to a new opportunity and brought me to Pebble Lane. I’m happy to be part of the team and continue learning each day.
I also have a Master’s degree in Publishing and Editing and speak fluent Ukrainian and Russian. I’m the proud mom of two daughters, ages 20 and 11.

I’m grateful for this new chapter and excited to keep growing as part of the Pebble Lane team.
I’m a mother of two grown children, a son and a daughter, and my journey into Early Childhood Education began as a parent volunteer at my son’s preschool. That experience sparked a passion for teaching that has now been part of my life for 28 years.
Over the years, I’ve worked at the Surrey Immigration Centre, taught preschool for 12 years, and spent another 10 years in daycare. I’ve had the opportunity to work with children from many cultures and language backgrounds, which has taught me to pay close attention to each child’s individual needs. I enjoy using music, art, and Fun Family Phonics in the classroom, and I especially value open-ended creative art as a way for children to express themselves.
In my free time, I love being outdoors and painting. I look forward to meeting every family and supporting your children as they learn, grow, and develop their own personalities and skills.
