Hello! Thank you for taking the time to browse our site. 
I am a lifelong resident of Center Ossipee and I started working part-time at this Child Care Center in 1994. At that time, I decided to become a Life-Long Learner. I graduated from Granite State College in 2001 with an Associate in Science Degree in Early Childhood Education. I also have a Credential for a Lead Teacher-Level 1 and for my Director position-an Early Childhood Administrator Credential. One of my greatest rewards is being able to watch the children in my care grow and learn.

Hello! I love working at the OCC Childcare Center. I have worked with children off and on for about 15 years. I am currently in the process of getting all of my credentials to be a preschool teacher. I have lived in this town my entire life, knowing many of the generations coming in and out of this building daily. My goal with all of my children is to promote confidence, safety, and most importantly, love. I feel honored to have your children in our care and grateful for the incredible opportunity to help create great, successful little beings!

Hi families! I am the lead teacher in the toddler room. My family and I have lived in the aread for a couple of years. I try to have a hands on approach to my teaching. I love messy art, sensory experiences, and science experiments. One of my favorite parts of teaching is to watch children learn and discover something new. I've come to this job with a bachelor's degree in education and about ten years of experience. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to care for your children!
