Hi my name is Ms. Joann. I have been with St. Marys Child Development Center for 20 years. I started working with the four-year-olds, then after about 5 years I became the lead teacher in one of the three year old classrooms. I also volunteered to have inclusion children in my room, it was a wonderful program. I have been married for 35 years to my wonderful husband Jeff. We have three beautiful daughters. OUr oldest Samantha is a Nurse Practitioner in Neurology and married to Erik. They are expecting our first grandbaby! We are super excited! Our second daughter Megan is a special Needs Teacher for K-2nd grade. She is engaged to Willie. So that means we will have more grandbabies! Our third daughter Kayla is an Assistant General Manager and training specialist for Panera Bread. She pretty much works everyday so she will not be having any grandbabies anytime soon. It is quite obvious that I love children and working at St. Marys. It is such a joy to teach and watch your children grow and learn.
