MEET OUR FACULTY

I’ve been the Director here since 2008. I have built some of my fondest memories here with the children. My hope is to give your children the same lasting memories and a place to call home away from home. As the Director you will find me behind the scenes, constantly working hard to improve the quality of care and education we provide your children. My biggest goal is to make each child that comes before me and our school happy, healthy, well-cared for, and educated. I’m always here for any of your questions or concerns. Together, I hope to make each child smile their brightest.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Early Education and Business from C.W. POST (LIU) & John Cabot University (Rome, Italy) and continued my education through Empire State College. I am trained by the Department of Health in Food & Health Safety, American Red Cross certified First Aid/CPR for the professional rescuer, RTE, MAT (medication administration, EPI-PEN) certified; as well as the Swim & Water Safety Instructor and lifeguard manager during our Summer Camp season!

This is my third year working at Long Island Child Care where I am now the manager. I graduated from SUNY Oneonta with a Bachelor’s degree in History. For my first three years at college I was an Education major and spent many hours in schools working with kids. I plan to go back for my Master’s degree in education and to be a high school History teacher. I have gained experience in the field of education by working with children in schools and summer camps. Working with children is something I am passionate about along with bringing excitement to a fun learning environment. I am trained by the Department of Health is Food and Health safety, American Red Cross certified in CPR and First Aid, and am a lifeguard during our summer camp. I look forward to having an amazing year and can’t wait for it to start!

Hi! My name is Miss Leeanna, and I am the teacher for the Pre-K class. I am currently pursuing a degree in childhood education, and have been working with children of all ages for over 5 years. This is my third school year here at LICC, and my first year running a classroom as a head teacher. Teaching has become my passion and every day I look forward to seeing my students have fun while learning something new. The greatest reward is seeing the progress that has been made throughout the year. I can’t wait to see what this year holds!
