Betsy Davis, Director
Betsy graduated from Nicholls State University with a bachelor’s in journalism from Thibodaux, Louisiana. She moved to Ocean Springs in 2018 with her daughter where she soon fell in love with the community and working in childcare. Since then, she’s earned her CDA while teaching preschool and is now the director of a wonderful little preschool that has been a staple in the community for decades. She works with a dedicated and compassionate team that helps to ensure every child in their care has the best possible start in their developmental years.
Filosofía
Our program is designed to meet the developmental, educational and social needs of children ages three to five. Here, we have weekly visits from our local librarian, holiday programs and yearly fieldtrips all while teaching kindergarten readiness and fostering the growth and development of each child in our care through fun and engaging lessons.
Ubicación
We are located in the charming little town of Ocean Springs, directly off HWY 90 and inside of the Christus Victor Lutheran Church building. Our playground faces a peaceful, wooded neighborhood, and we are about two and a half miles and less from the beach, the library and local elementary schools.

8:35Circle Time-- We start with the calendar, reviewing the day, month, year and season. Then, we go over our number of the week, counting it out on our fingers and hands and discussing the numeral and the word. From there, we do our letter of the week, talk about the pictures that correspond with it, and the sight word. We talk about the weather outside that day, discuss our shape of the week and then our color. For each of these, we have different students come up and lead the class. These are their helper jobs.
-
8:50Theme-- We talk about our theme of the week and what we will be learning that day. The teacher will sometimes use the interactive board to bring up videos, sounds or illustrations, and the students have a chance to talk about what they already know about the subject or ask any questions they might have.

Skills and concepts students are learning during centers are literacy, math, science, art, fine motor and social and emotional skills.
