Our state-of-the-art center is located in the Hedingham subdivision between the Beltline and Knightdale, serving the Eastern Wake County communities. My name is Michelle and I am the Director. I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree in early childhood education and look forward to completing my master's degree. I have 25 years of experience as a teacher, trainer, mentor and director.
Our school offers Infant Care, Preschool and other early education programs. I enjoy interacting with families here in Raleigh and seeing the children develop into lifelong learners.
