GRANDMA = LOVE,  ZOO = AMUSEMENT,  ACADEMY= EDUCATION

MEET Ms. JILLIAN

I am working towards my Associate of Science Degree in Early Child Development.  In addition I am required 15 hours of training annually in child development and I hold a current 1st aid CPR card and Food Handlers license. I have had a criminal history check through the State of Oregon Child Care Division.   

MISSION STATEMENT

Shepherd the flock of God which is among you, serving as overseers, not by compulsion but willingly, not for dishonest gain but eagerly; nor as being lords over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock; and when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away. 1 Peter 5:2-4

BLOG

I have started a blog. If you want more interpersonal information about us and what we do. Please click on my life letters link and it will take you to my personal online journal (personal? online? Sounds like and oxymoron)

I will be writing about things we do, cute things children say, events, activity ideas, important topics I am learning in school, etc.  So much happens in a day I feel a blog will give better insight. I will be sharing my unstructured and raw thoughts and I would love to hear from you!
