Teresa Ficklen, Director/Owner
Teresa graduated from The University of Memphis in 2007 with a Bachelors of Science in Education degree. In 2009, she earned her Masters in Curriculum and Instruction from Union University. She has always had a passion for children. She spent 17 years teaching elementary education in Memphis, TN. For the past 3 years, she has been working on her dream of opening her own in home private preschool for ages 3-5. Her favorite thing about what she does is helping little people learn and grow socially and emotionally. She believes that small class size will allow her and her team to provide each child individual support that will lead to academic outcomes and positive emotional development.
