Lorraine Purgret, RECE, BA Child Studies
Lorraine has over 26 years post-secondary teaching and coordinating at Fanshawe College, Simcoe ON, in both the Early Childhood Education and Developmental Services Worker programs.

Lorraine is passionate about recognizing the uniqueness that exists in development and how to use this information to better understand each child’s developmental story. She is naturally interested in self-regulation as both a teaching tool in her classroom and to aid children’s development. Understanding self-regulation has become such a fundamental part of her teaching in post-secondary education as well as parenting her 9 and 16 year old daughters.
