Miss Keris
Busy BeeTeacher
Aloha! I’m Miss Keris and I’ve always loved little kids. Teaching is a passion of mine and I get joy from watching the children reach their goals and to see their facial expressions when they can finally do something on their own.
It is very rewarding seeing children use what I have taught them as they teach their siblings or friends what they have learned.
Children are our future, and if we can teach them how to do things the right way from a young age, they can have a wonderful life and create a better world for their children.

Hi everyone! I’m Miss Mayumi.
I love teaching and watching children learn and grow. I really enjoy all the time I spend with them.
Children are so positive and curious and not only do I feel it is a privilege to teach them, but also I have the pleasure of learning from them.
I believe that Kinder Kids International School’s unique curriculum gives the children a great deal of opportunities in an environment that is both engaging and fun. I'm originally from Japan and I will be the Japanese and Music class teacher for the older children.

Miss Kayoko
FloaterTeacher
Hi, my name is Miss Kayoko.
I studied early childhood education in Hawaii and have experience working with children from 0 to 5 years old. Five years will pass by with a blink of an eye for adults but for children, each year is very unique, different, and very important- especially in their very early years.
I’m excited and honored to build good relationships with Kinder Kids children and their families, and support their growth with love. Hawaii is a very special place to live. A place where many cultures gather. I hope that the children will learn to respect their own uniquenesses and each other’s differences while at Kinder Kids.
