Pwofesè nou yo
Cheri Chalupa, Director/Co-Teacher I have been working in the Early childhood education field for 30 years. I love watching children learn and grow every day. I have my Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education from UNL. I live on a small farm that is located between Crete and Wilber that has been in my family for many generations. I enjoy living out in the country because it lets me indulge in my love of animals.

Konsènan pwogram nou an
Our program is small, which allows for more one on one attention. We also value the Lutheran faith in our program with daily Jesus Time and Chapel on Wednesdays with Pastor Benson from Bethlehem Lutheran Church as well as Pastor Toensing from St. John’s in Kramer. It is so amazing to see how these children are all friends with each other as well as their love for Jesus. We definitely have one of the best programs around!
