Director / Teacher - Joie
Hello Families!
Welcome to Creative Valley Child Care! I'm Joie, and I am happy to serve you as Creative Valley’s Director/teacher. Working with children and families is not just a job for me; it's a passion. Everyday I'm inspired by the growth and progress I see in the children under our care. There's something magical about seeing a child's excitement when they discover something new or realize they can achieve something they once thought was impossible.
My journey into child care began early, as I took on the role of caring for my younger family members. This led to babysitting other families and ultimately, becoming a teacher. These early experience sparked my passion for nurturing children and witnessing their development, and I realized my calling was to become a teacher. Today, here at Creative Valley Child Care, I merge my teaching expertise with my deep dedication to provide a nurturing environment where children can truly thrive.
Outside of work, I love nature, exploring the outdoors, and I like to travel for new adventures. Time with family and friends is essential to me, I believe in strong connections and community.
I am so excited to offer my dream child care program to all of you, and for your child to be a part of Creative Valley!
