About Laura

Hi! I have worked in early childhood education/caregiving for over 30 years. Through high school, I nannied for a couple of families who's children now have children. I have my associates degree in Early Childhood Education and have worked in a number of daycare centers locally. I also fostered through LCCS for 16 years and was a safe home away from home for 42 children during that time. I am CPR and First Aid certified, and have worked with children from birth to 12 years old. I have a soft spot in my heart for the littlest ones! I have hundreds of hours in continuing education as required for both childcare and fostering. I believe strongly that building the emotional connection with young children and guiding their cognitive development go hand in hand. The most important aspect of my job will always be creating a safe, loving atmosphere for your child to flourish. In my free time, I enjoy reading, developing deep friendships, and spending time with my teenage children.
