Welcome to The Happy Hive!
I am glad that you have elected to enroll your child in this program. My experience as a working parent guides my expectations for excellence in this program. My son, Adam, now 25 attended a program that was exceptional and contributed to his overall well-being as a person and started him on the road of loving to learn and knowing how interact with people. Expect those results for your child. Please note the statement below; it explains our foundation in the Happy Hive.
“In order to provide care and education that will permit children to experience a high quality of life while helping them develop their abilities, a quality program must provide for the three basic needs all children have:
*Protection of their health and safety
*Building positive relationships
*Opportunities for stimulation and learning from experience
No one component is more or less important than the others, nor can one substitute for another. It takes all three to create quality care. Each of the three basic components of quality care manifests itself in tangible forms in the program’s environment, curriculum, schedule, supervision and interaction, and can be observed.” (FPG Child Development Institute UNC @ Chapel Hill)
I was born in Virginia but moved to Michigan as a child and now have returned to Virginia. My background is in Business Management with emphasis in Supply Chain Management. I have a Master’s degree in Business and am very interested in continuous learning so you can anticipate my endeavor to gain knowledge in the field of education is a priority. What you need to know more than my credentials is that I consider it an honor to help care for and educate your child. Their well-being is my top priority.
I look forward to getting to know you and your child. Please contact me with any questions or concerns.
