Meet Ashley Toddler Teacher (18-24 months)
Hello, my name is Mrs. Ashley, and I’m delighted to be part of the Goddard team and help shape young minds. My goal is to create a safe, nurturing environment for children to learn and grow. Originally from Cleveland, NC, I’m excited to settle here in Rock Hill as my new home. During college, I had to complete an internship and was selected to work at a childcare facility in Salisbury, NC. I didn’t expect to enjoy it, but I quickly fell in love with the work and teaching children. I stayed in the position of floater assistant for about a year and a half. Since then, I’ve worked as an RBT, supporting children with autism spectrum disorder, but I missed working in a classroom setting with multiple children. I enjoy fast-paced environments and look forward to getting to know the children in my care and the parents in the community.
