Linda’s first experience with Lamb’s was when her two daughters, now adults, were Lambs. In those wonderful years she worked at Lamb’s as a classroom assistant and then as a 3 -year -old teacher. Before she and her husband adopted their beautiful girls from China, Linda taught second grade and high school English. When Becky and Katie were students in the Bedford schools, she worked as the math tutor at Riddle Brook School. As Administrative Assistant to Lamb’s Director, Linda is learning the rhythm of the school year at Lamb’s. The favorite part of her job is greeting our little Lambs and their families every morning. Linda feels the Lord led her back to Lamb’s to fill her again with the joy of watching little ones experience delight in the world around them and the love of God in the wonderful loving care of our faculty. In her free time, Linda enjoys choral singing, reading, and just hanging with her family.

I am excited to join the Lamb’s team as an assistant teacher in the three-year-old classrooms. My journey with Lamb’s began as a parent. My daughters attended the preschool and kindergarten programs, where their love of learning flourished. Once they moved to elementary school, I stayed actively involved by volunteering in their classrooms and helping out with school events. Now, I am grateful for the opportunity to give back to the wonderful children and families that are part of this special community.
I enjoy reading, spending time with family and friends, and exploring new recipes. I feel blessed to be part of such a nurturing environment and I am excited to support students in their first school experience. I look forward to being able to share God’s love with your children!

Corinne has been the assistant teacher in the 4-year-old program since 2021. For the past 10 years, she's been home raising two boys, George (15 yrs old) & Louis (13 yrs old). During that time, she spent many days volunteering in their preschool and following them throughout the years to be a part of their classrooms and all of their school events. Spending time in their preschool classroom has always been Corinne's favorite place to be. The children’s eagerness to learn and the innocence of this age always held a special place in her heart. When she's not spending time cheering for her kids in their multiple sports, she loves to travel, or read a good book. "Most of all, I love spending time at home as a family. Being fairly new to the Bedford community, I’m excited to meet more wonderful families from this town. I feel Blessed to have this opportunity to share God’s love with your beautiful children".
