Assistant Director & Lead Teacher
"Caring for children is not just my job - it's my calling."
Madelyna is Mary's daughter and has been immersed in early childhood education her entire life. Growing up in the very home where Mary's Little Lambs began, she developed a natural gift for connecting with children and understanding their unique needs from a young age.
Now working full-time alongside her mother, Madelyna brings a fresh perspective combined with a lifetime of hands-on experience. She is currently a sophomore in college, pursuing her degree in education with the goal of becoming a certified teacher. Her academic studies complement the practical knowledge she's gained growing up surrounded by early childhood education.
As a mother herself, Madelyna has a deep understanding of what parents look for in quality childcare. Her own child attends Mary's Little Lambs, which speaks to her complete trust in the program and her personal investment in maintaining the highest standards of care.
Madelyna's heart has always been for children, and it always will be. Her patience, creativity, and genuine love for teaching makes her an invaluable part of the Mary's Little Lambs family. The children adore her, and she brings joy and energy to every day at the daycare.
Empowering Young Learners
