Ms. Laura
Hello! I have been with Learning Edge since 2004. I achieved an associate's degree in Early Childhood Education from MATC and I'm also CPR/AED and First Aid certified. A couple of my favorite things to do include spending time with my big family (I have seven siblings!) and being outside (as long as it's not too cold out!) I enjoy working with young children and seening them develop and learn new things. My goal is to make your child's experience with Learning Edge safe, valuable, and of course-- fun!
