About the Founder and Lead Teacher

Teacher Amber Huyter has spent many years working with young children in a variety of early childhood settings. She completed her early childhood education degree in 2016 with certifications in administration, general education, infant and toddler development, school age education and has continued her professional growth through additional trainings. In 2017 Teacher Amber founded Ready, Set, Grow! Preschool after she discovered a need for a well-balanced preschool option, rooted in genuine care and personal growth, that wasn't available in the Wenatchee Valley. She started with a single small class on her own and has grown to offer more than one session and have an assistant. Teacher Amber's career reflects nearly a decade of steady, hands‑on experience and successful student Kindergarten transitions. Over the years, she created a flexible curriculum that can be tailored to the needs of each student. Teacher Amber is currently working on expanding to new programs that also follow Washington State early learning standards and is shaped by warm routines, meaningful relationships, and child‑centered learning. Community connections continue to grow through guest speakers, field trips, and plans for a larger program in the future.

Opening- A gentle start with settling‑in routines and open‑ended materials.

Gathering Time- Songs, stories, movement, and shared activities that build connection and support early learning foundations.

Exploration- Hands‑on centers, projects, and guided experiences based on children’s interests and developmental needs.

Outdoor Play- Time outside whenever weather allows, supporting curiosity, movement, and connection with the natural world.

Closing- A wrap‑up that helps children transition out of the session.
