Hello, I’m Ms. Kendra. I grew up in Newberg and earned both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in elementary education. For 12 years, I taught in the McMinnville School District, spending the last five years with first graders and supporting students with diverse academic and behavioral needs. I’m excited to now be part of children’s early learning, helping them build a strong foundation for future education. Since joining the team, I’ve rediscovered my love for watching infants and toddlers grow, learn, and explore the world.
Hello! I’m Ms. Jeanne, owner of Buckle My Shoe. Thank you so much for considering our childcare for your family. I believe every child deserves a safe, loving, and affordable place where they truly belong. My greatest joy is knowing that the time children spend here enriches their lives and helps them grow with confidence and joy.
Hello! My name is Ms. Ashley, and I am the Lead Infant-Toddler Teacher and Manager here at Buckle My Shoe. I’ve spent more than 10 years as a childcare owner, but I realized my true passion lies in being with the children. Teaching, playing, and nurturing little ones is where I feel most fulfilled. There’s nothing more special than watching them grow, discover, and thrive every day.
