My favorite part of being the director of the Fruitport Early Childhood Center is the relationships that I build with the children, their families and the staff.  I am blessed to work with a dedicated staff whose first priority is the well being of the children they care for.  

Bio Coming Soon!

Preschool sets a foundation for a child's experience in school. I hope I have had a great impact on my young students and their families. It has been a true blessing to have served children and their families since 2002.

I was born in Muskegon and lived here my whole life.  I graduated from Mona Shores.  I attended Muskegon Community College and studied Early Childhood.  I started working for Fruitport Schools in January of 2001 in the SAC program at Shettler School. In August of 2001 I moved to the Early Childhood Center to the Toddler 2 room and worked as an assistant.  In February of 2014 I furthered my education in Early Childhood and took over as the lead teacher of the Toddler 2 Room.  I love my job with the little people and find my job very rewarding.

Our children are our future.  What a great job to have in helping them grow and explore! I love to sit on the floor and see things at their eye level.  What a different world it is! The joy in seeing a young face light up with newly learned knowledge is a great feeling.

 I choose Fruitport to work because I am proud of the school system and I had heard good things about the ECC program.

I have worked for Fruitport Community Schools since 2000. I have held many different positions in the Early Childhood Center. I have worked as an assistant in most of the ECC classrooms and as a lead teacher for both Edgewood and Shettler SAC.

One of the things I love to do is work with children helping them build their stepping stones to a good education and future. I enjoy watching them grow.

I enjoy working with children because children see things from a different perspective.  I get to be creative with them and we get to play! I like knowing that even for the little time I am with these children I am making a difference in their lives.

I love what I do and I love the families I work with. These kiddos make me want to get up in the morning and go to work. I think I learn as much from them as they do from me!

I have lived in Muskegon for 7 years. I worked in a daycare/preschool setting atmosphere since 2006 in Gaylord, Michigan.

What I love most about working in the education field is having the opportunity to see them learn and grow each day. It’s amazing to see them come into our center as small babies and leave big kids ready to start kindergarten. The little accomplishments they achieve are what make every day I am with them so special.

I love how I can create a positive impact on my students every day. 

I really enjoy my job, and I am eager to help all of these little ones get the most out of their time with us.  I believe that the first three years of a child's life are the most important for soaking up information, and I want to do everything I can to fill those little sponges with words, actions, and most of all love!

I have been working with children throughout most of my life I found my home at Fruitport.  It's a great honor to be their first teacher they encounter in school. I love giving the children the roots to grow & the wind to fly.
