Sheri
Program Leader
Hello, my name is Sheri Entwistle. I am the Program Leader here at St. Bernard PCDC. I have worked at Parents’ Child Development Cooperative since 2009 and have held different positions over the years. I have my Early Childhood Education Diploma and my level 3 certification.
I am married and have four amazing children including a set of twins. We have two dogs a Great Dane and a Mastiff Shepherd cross. We love camping, movies and spending time together as a family.
I have always enjoyed working with children and watching them grow and change. I believe every child has their own learning style and are all capable, intelligent and caring people. With guidance and nurturing every child can reach their full potential.

Madison
Glow Worm
My name is Madison Entwistle and I was born and raised in Saskatoon, SK. I started at PCDC as a summer student in 2019 and am currently working full-time as I work towards nursing school. I graduated from Evan Hardy earlier in 2020 with an award from the school for my time in the performing arts as well as AP credit in both English and Psychology. I play three instruments (the flute, saxophone, and ukulele) and have a great passion for language learning. I have spent the majority of my life caring for children as I am the oldest cousin on my dad's side as well as having three younger sisters, so I am excited to use this opportunity to grow as a caregiver as well as an educator so I can help children grow up to be the best version of themselves that they can possibly be.
Mia
EA
Good day to you! I am Mia (Eunbeul Lee) who started to work as a member of PCDC team from 2022. I now have my Level III. To encourage children to have as much freedom as possible is my ideal goal. I believe that the
children can think, feel, move, say and imagine whatever they want and the more children experienced, the more they think they "CAN" do or achieve whatever they want to do. I love working with children and seeing their eyes light up when they discover something new.
Therefore, I can tell the children inspires me and I can enjoy making something for children in my spare time.

Hi, my name is Ting Yang. I’ve finished my ECE Level III classes. I think I’m lucky to get the position in PCDC soon after my graduation and it’s an amazing daycare centre. I’ve learned a lot from other educators and they keep helping me gain experience since I started to do my practicum here. Early years are very important for a child and I’m glad that I can make a difference to their life by putting what I’ve learn in class into practice. In my spare time, I love to watch movies and listen to classic music while I’m cooking.
