Our Teachers

Terina Maddox-Director Terina graduated from Horry-Georgetown Technical College with a degree. in Early Childhood Education In 2014. She has always wanted to be a teacher and her dream of having her own daycare came after the birth of her daughter. Her favorite thing about what she does is developing relationships with the children and watching them accomplish goals that is put before them. She believes that small class size and the development of a strong community allow her and her team to really know each child as an individual and to provide a solid and supportive foundation in the early years.
