Our Teachers

My name is Mrs. Pamela Young, and I am a proud homeowner and the founder of My Charm’s Childcare Learning Center. After working at the Detroit Medical Center for 22 years, I realized that my job there was no longer fulfilling. Leaving with a smile on my face, I embarked on a new journey. The First Lady at my church had been seeking someone to work at the childcare center, and one Sunday, I decided to give it a try. This turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, as the smiles of those little faces instantly brightened my days.

In 2021, I began taking classes, and by 2022, I was working as a lead teacher in my church’s childcare learning center, caring for a group of three- and four-year-olds. This experience ignited my passion for working with children.

I am blessed with a blended family made with love, including three adult daughters, one stepson, and three younger children, two of whom are adopted. Their ages are 28, 25, 22, 18, 13, 12, and 10. I fostered my adopted children for four years before adopting them after their mother tragically passed away while preparing to reunite with them. I couldn’t let them go after such a devastating loss.

Being a mother is a great blessing. I cherish the time I spend with children and how much I learn from them. Children are incredibly smart, and I enjoy watching them learn and play. Working with children is immensely rewarding. I love having a positive impact on their lives and seeing their growth as they become confident and self-sufficient.
