Leadership & Staff

As an early education program with a successful history, we know that the quality we provide depends on the educators working in our various programs. We provide regular on-going professional development training for our faculty, with a strong emphasis on teacher collaboration. Opportunities include participation in weekly planning meetings and monthly faculty meetings, attending conferences and in-services, and working individually with consultants in the classroom.

Meet Our Staff

Ms. Monique

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
My purpose in life is to use every day that I’m given to make a difference in the lives of others. In my 27 years of experience working with children and persons with mental disabilities, I’m always thinking, cultivating, and considering the vital role, family plays in the development of children. The African Proverb, “It takes a village to raise a child” speaks to us all. It’s important to work as a part of the larger village to not only provide quality education but to support our families and communities.
Ms. Ann

TEACHER/NUTRITIONAL SPECIALIST
I have been working in Early Childhood Education for over 20 years and have had the pleasure to work at SLVHCC since 2017. I’ve always had a passion for nutrition and nurturing others. I am so grateful to be able to learn about every family that joins SLVHCC. I enjoy being around young children and I look forward to seeing their faces every day. My goal as a full-time teacher and nutritionist is to provide an optimal school environment for children where they feel safe and connected to their teachers and classmates.

I’ve been teaching for 29 years and found it to be my calling. I’m passionate about children and always there to encourage and support them. I’ve been married to my wonderful husband (Darryl) since 1996 who encourages and supports me to be the best teacher I can be. I’m also a proud mother of 2 kids and a blessed grandmother of 2.
