Miss YvonneDirector

Hi, my name is Miss Yvonne

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!

My name is Miss Breahanna

I have worked here since 2013, and I am the teacher in the Toddler program. I have my Associates Degree and completed two years at BOCES in Early Childhood Education. I have worked in all classrooms as an assistant, and I have always wanted to work in the Early Childhood field. To me, seeing the children develop with the new knowledge that they have learned is a wonderful experience. I am excited to be a part of your child’s first journey in education.

My goal is to create a comfortable, healthy, positive, and exciting school year for your toddlers growth. I believe in the importance of children learning through play and using the five senses.

Miss LeeannaPre-K Teacher

My name is Miss Leeanna

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!

We employ caring, nurturing people to assist our head teachers. Some of the supporting staff are mothers of their own children, some are pursuing degrees in education, and all love children. All of our head teachers are certified, experienced, well-qualified educators.
