Leksi Bunnell joined Central Park Montessori School in 2021. She is originally from a small town in Pennsylvania, and moved to New York after high school to pursue culinary arts, which led her to recently win Food Network’s “Chopped” cooking competition! While being a chef, she led a full career as a nanny for 9 years.  She is also an AMS Infant-Toddler certified Montessori teacher. When not cooking or caring for family, she loves to spend her free time camping, hiking, swimming, and vacationing. Leksi has a daughter who attends Central Park Montessori.
