She is thrilled to bring the A Place To Grow nature-based early child care model to North Carolina. One of the things that drew Maureen to the A Place To Grow franchise is the experiential, play-based approach to learning that is often lacking in the era of standardized testing. She can’t wait to see where your child’s imagination and curiosity will take them while in her care.
When she’s not at school, Maureen can be found at home gardening, reading, or enjoying the company of her husband Matt and their two French Bulldogs, Watson and Teddy.
