Kelly Kocon has been at BAYarts since 2014. She teaches preschool art as well as art camps during the summer. She remembers always having loved teaching other’s, even when she was a child herself. She’d even put her babysitting income towards art supplies to bring to her next babysitting gigs. She went to LCCC for Early Childhood Education and has taught traditional preschool, been a nanny, and also managed an in-home daycare. “BAYarts has given me the chance to grow as a teacher and as a person. I love watching my preschooler’s tiny little hands creating their masterpieces to bring home. It is truly a rewarding job.” Currently living in Bay Village, she is a Mom to 3 children – ages nine, seven and three.
