Dedicated educators passionate about nurturing young minds in Jersey City.
Co-Founder
Hi, I'm Yeon! As a proud mom of four and longtime Jersey City resident, I know firsthand how important it is to find a place you can truly trust with your little one. I launched the beloved play-based Lucie Goosie center before joining forces with Diane in 2019 to create Park View Academy - a place built on our shared vision of trusted, play-based, and family-focused care where children feel known, loved, and supported every day.
Co-Founder
Hi, I'm Diane! As a Jersey City mom myself, I left corporate America in 2008 to follow my passion for creating childcare centers rooted in warmth and community. In 2019, Yeon and I joined forces to create Park View Academy - a place built on our shared vision of trusted, play-based, and family-focused care where children feel known, loved, and supported every day.
Director
Hi, I'm Kristine! I'm the Director of Park View Academy, where I'm passionate about creating a nurturing environment where children, families, and teachers can thrive. Growing up in a close Greek Cypriot family inspired my lifelong love for childcare and education. I believe that when teachers are supported, children receive the very best care and learning experiences. Outside of work, I cherish time with my husband Andrew, our daughter Eleni, and our extended family - moments that remind me of the deep connections we value at PVA.
Our teaching team is the heart of Park View Academy. Every educator is carefully selected for their experience, warmth, and dedication to early childhood development.
