Hi! I’m the Director at Poppy’s Playhouse in Bountiful, and I’ve had the pleasure of being part of the Poppy’s family for a year. I recently earned my CDA (Child Development Associate) credential, and I love every moment I get to spend with the amazing kids at our center.

I have four wonderful children of my own who enjoy coming to work with me and making new friends. I’m passionate about creating a fun, nurturing, and safe environment for all the children in my care. When I’m not at Poppy’s, I love to bake delicious goodies and spend time outdoors enjoying warm weather. My favorite color is purple, and I am a huge fan of dogs—they always bring a smile to my day.

I’m excited to get to know each of your families and watch your children learn, grow, and thrive here at Poppy’s Playhouse!
