Spider Room Teachers

Lexi Midtlien

Hi, I’m Lexi Midtlien and I am so excited to be here at Little Beginnings Learning Center. I am at University of Wisconsin-River Falls studying Broad Field Science Education. This is my first time working in a learning center, and I am excited to work with all of your wonderful kids here. Though this is my first time, I have gained a lot of experience with children through babysitting in the past. I am also a volleyball coach for River Falls Volleyball Club’s sixteen year old team. In my free time I love to cook, bake, and do fun crafts. I am blessed to be given the opportunity to get to know both you and your children, while also helping your kids learn and grow into amazing young people!

Amy McGuire

I am Amy McGuire. I have lived in Hastings since 1997, and grew up in Cottage Grove (go Park!) I have two amazing girls one born in 1997 (Julia) and the other in 2001 (Jenna). I previously worked in the Hastings school district as a Title One paraprofessional. I absolutely loved working with students from Kindergarten to Fourth grade who just need a little extra piece of the puzzle in Language Arts and Mathematics. Before working at Pinecrest, I was at a small catholic school in Vermillion for six years. I worked in the Kindergarten room and then eventually school wide. I have my A.S. degree in Human Services from Inver Hills community college and just recently earned my B.A. in Elementary Education. My girls keep me pretty busy including my eighty pound German Shepherd “Charming”. I also have an amazing group of friends who share my love of reading, scrapbooking, wine tasting and hiking. I look forward to getting to know you all and to continue to grow in my relationship with your children.

Jenna Spitzack
