Taylor Deniken

Lead Teacher, Nursery Three

Hello! I’m Taylor Deniken, and I am thrilled to rejoin the Robert J. Wilf Preschool team. This year marks my fourth at the JCC and my third as a Lead Teacher in the Nursery classroom. I’m really looking forward to beginning this new school year and getting to know each of you. Growing up as the oldest of four siblings in a large family, I’ve always been passionate about working with children. In my spare time, I love to read, practice yoga, and explore my creative side. With nearly 15 years of experience as a swim instructor, including four incredible summers teaching at the JCC, I’ve developed a deep admiration for the curiosity and imagination of young children. I believe childhood is a unique and valuable phase of life, and I am honored to have the chance to make a positive difference in the lives of the children I work with. Thank you for welcoming me back into your community—I’m excited for the year ahead and all the learning and growth we’ll experience together!
