Karen Cameron, Director
Karen has been working with children in the Glebe since 1994. She started her career in child care as a caregiver for two young girls and her love of Early Childhood Education has grown from that special time. Karen has been working as a teacher at Good Morning since 2002 but her relationship with the school started in 2000, as a supply teacher, while she was care giving for a Glebe family and taking ECE courses through continuing education at Algonquin College.
In February of 2010, Karen stepped into the role of Director and has been happy leading the school since then. She was very eager for that opportunity in her career and after years of building relationships in this community she is confident in her role as Director of our beloved Good Morning.
Karen has worked in all of the school’s programs and she spearheaded the development of the Creative Arts program for school aged children. After having her daughter Molly in 2005, Karen has remained a constant in all the programs at Good Morning. Karen currently teaches the Preschool and Beyond Program and oversees all programs.
Outside of Good Morning, Karen plays ringette in an adult league, she is a certified Provincial Ringette Coach and a City of Ottawa Ringette Board Member. She loves camping, travelling, and spending quiet time with her family. Karen looks forward to every school year and can’t wait to work with your children at Good Morning.

Lauren Weber, Teacher, RECE
Lauren came to Early Childhood Education as a second career after staying home to raise her young family and caring for other children in her home. She graduated from Algonquin College in 2014, and immediately started working in the OCDSB kindergarten program, at Riverview Alternative, Alta Vista, and Mutchmor schools.
In the fall of 2020, she shifted to working part-time in online virtual school, and as a supply teacher in Good Morning's preschool. She is super excited to now be teaching children in the Storyscapes and Preschool and Beyond programs. She loves using books as a foundation for exploring ideas, inspiring creativity, and opening young minds to the world around them.
When she's not working, Lauren can be often spotted at her teenagers' sporting events, walking her dogs, or riding her bike around town, usually with a huge smile on her face and a twinkle in her eye.

Jennifer Moorhouse
Jenn has always been drawn to a career working with young children. She has a long history of working and volunteering with kids in a wide variety of settings and capacities, including tutoring, leading children’s knitting classes and volunteering at CHEO. After moving to Ottawa in 2015 to attend the University of Ottawa, where she earned a degree in Biomedical Sciences, Jenn realized that her true passion was education and so she enrolled in the Early Childhood Education Program at Algonquin College. She completed her diploma while working part-time as a paediatricians assistant. Soon after her graduation, Jenn began working as an R.E.C.E. in an infant classroom before joining the team at Good Morning where she will be teaching in the Preschool and Beyond program.
In her spare time, Jenn loves reading, walking along the canal, and discovering new coffee shops. She also loves exploring and sharing new creative hobbies and techniques, which is part of the reason why she's so excited to be a part of the Good Morning team.
