Lynnette Chavez, Childcare provider
In 2013, she realized her dream of having her own in home childcare program after the birth of her son. Her favorite thing about what she does is developing relationships with the children that she teaches and their families. She believes that small class sizes 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.
