Executive Director
Hello! My name is Kayla and the Lockport/ Homer Glen area has been my home for my entire life. My husband and I have 2 boys, Jack and Madden, and we love raising our family here and volunteering in the community. I hold a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education from Olivet Nazarene University with endorsements in science, art, P.E./health, and child development. Previously I taught 4th grade, but made the switch to early childhood in 2015 and fell in love! Since then, I have gained experience in teaching infants, preschool, and pre-k, as well as in administration. I'm honored to use my expertise to lead our wonderful Lockport Goddard team as we nurture all the children in our care to become confident little learners!
