Leah Egan

Teacher (Two’s Class)

Leah has been joyfully singing, dancing, playing instruments and teaching children in the Chicago area for over twenty years and is thrilled to join FUNS as a Teacher in the Twos classroom. She holds a degree in K-12 instrumental music education from Roosevelt University, she is Kindermusik licensed and has brought her early childhood music program to many schools, daycares, libraries, preschools and private businesses in her career as a music educator. Inspiring little minds to be inquisitive, creative and playful is her favorite part in working at First United Nursery School. Of working with the twos, Leah says, “Twos are not terrible they are terrific! A two-year-old is full of wonder, a walk down the block can take an hour when a two-year-old is engaged in exploration”. She lives in Oak Park with her patient husband, four lively children (FUNS alums), one naughty dog and two busy bunnies.
