Hannah
Director
I have been working in Early Childhood Education for over 16 years. I completed my education at CMU, earning a degree specializing in Early Childhood Education. I have studied child psychology and have a deep passion for mentoring the growth and development of the children in our community. The first three years of a child's life are crucial in shaping how they learn, grow, and process information for their future. I have raised my three children here in the Grand Valley and I am truly honored to serve as your Director.
