  I am devoted to our school to make sure it has high quality of care and that the children learn, love and have fun at PCA! I love working with young children and helping them get ready for the future. I have a Child Development Associate (CDA) Credential. I’ve been working in the early childhood education field for over 15 years. That includes being a teacher, to a Director and to owning my own home daycare. Being a Director for a preschool is my passion and I love being there for the children, families and the teachers! I am always here to answer any questions.
