Mary Pagnotta - Assistant Co-ordinator
After receiving her Diploma in Early Childhood Education in 1995, Mary soon began working at TOSS and hasn't looked back since. Mary will celebrate 24 years with TOSS in 2019 and looks forward to many more fun-filled years! Mary is a kid at heart and no matter what she is doing, whether she's knee deep in a messy art project, playing the oh so popular game of Candyland, or helping children problem solve, Mary is always smiling and having fun!

Cynthia Lam - Afterschool Programmer
Cynthia has been with TOSS since 2013. Over the past 6 years she has shared many laughs and treasured moments with the children and staff at TOSS. Cynthia enjoys working with children because of their tireless enthusiasm to share learn and grow. Her philosophy on child care is simple: get down to the children’s level. It’s pretty amazing to see things from their perspective. As many of the kids know, Cynthia has a love affair with chocolate. But she also tries to promote healthy eating and exercise. When she's not at TOSS, Cynthia can be found bounding up a mountain. It's all about balance.

Jillian Sharpe - Morning Supervisor
Call me Jill, or as the kids call me, Jilly Bean! I am excited and thrilled to be a part of the TOSS staff team. I have a great deal of experience working with children, usually in out of school care programs. I enjoy using my imagination, and try to incorporate my love for acting while interacting with the children. In my spare time I enjoy being outdoors, doing Zumba and working on some of my art, including pottery. I am looking forward to getting to know all of you!
