Hi, I’m Ms. Jillian
I was Born and raised in the lush, vibrant haven of the English-speaking West Indian nation of Trinidad and Tobago, I, Jillian Ali, later became Jillian Wilder through my cherished union with Hans in 2008. My early education, steeped in the values of refined womanhood, unfolded within the esteemed halls of Naparima Girls School. At the tender age of sixteen, I ventured with my family to the United States, finding a new home on the sun-kissed shores of Florida, where I completed my secondary education at John L. Leonard in Lake Worth Beach.
As a devoted mother to my son Adrian, born in 1999, I am proud of his courageous service as an organ donor. Tragically, fate intervened, and Adrian was lost while jogging in the park the day after lockdown ended in 2020. To honor his noble spirit, I created and now manage a website, www.BlessedDay.org. On that fateful day, Adrian’s final words to me were, “Momma, you take that path and I will take this one.” These words have forever etched themselves into my heart, fueling my dedication to the website in Adrian’s memory.
I have embarked on a vibrant, twenty-year journey in the world of pre-kindergarten education, interlacing my expertise at the Disney YMCA learning center in Orlando, Bright Horizons learning center in Jupiter, and as a resourceful substitute for the Palm Beach County School District, all in Florida. With a storyteller’s heart, I not only cherish reading to children but also indulge in wandering the verdant, magical forests of Tug Hill, cultivating my colorful garden, crafting mouthwatering baked delights, and diving into the literary universe. My heart overflows with devotion to Jesus Christ, drawing comfort and inspiration from the poignant message of Isaiah 57:18—a testament to the transformative power of divine grace and mercy in the journey of renewal and restoration.

Embracing New Beginnings
Ms. Jillian’s Journey with Ms. Jillian ABC
I’m excited to share some wonderful news with you all. As some of you may know, I recently found myself facing a new chapter in my career journey. After being laid off from my previous position at New Day Academy, I was uncertain about what the future held for me. However, thanks to the State of New York’s SEAP program (Self-Employment Assistance Program), I’ve been given a remarkable opportunity to pursue my passion and expertise by starting my own business in the home daycare arena.
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to New Day Academy for the time I spent there and the experiences I gained. While the transition was unexpected, I believe that everything happens for a reason. It’s through challenges like these that we discover our true strengths and capabilities. I’m proud of the work I accomplished during my time at New Day Academy, and I carry those experiences with me as I embark on this new journey.
With the support of the SEAP program and the encouragement of friends, family, and colleagues like you, I’m thrilled to announce the launch of Ms. Jillian ABC. This venture represents more than just a business to me—it’s a calling to continue making a positive impact in the lives of young children and their families.
At Ms. Jillian ABC, my mission is simple yet profound: to provide a nurturing and enriching environment where 3 and 4-year-old boys and girls can learn, grow, and thrive. Through age-appropriate activities, play-based learning, and personalized attention, I aim to foster a love for learning and exploration that will last a lifetime.
I’m excited about this new chapter and the opportunity to serve my community in a meaningful way. Your support means the world to me, and I invite you to join me on this journey as we embark on this exciting adventure together.
Thank you for believing in me and for your unwavering support. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of children and families in our community.
With warm regards,
Ms. Jillian
