Ms. Lacey H.

Program Director

Hi Everyone! My name is Lacey and I am your Program Director. I am originally from Muncie, Indiana. A little bit about myself, I have a boyfriend named Justin and a puppy dog companion. I like to play softball and fish in the summer as well as spend time in Kentucky on my families houseboat. 

I have 7 years experience working with children. I have my Early Childhood Associates from Kellogg Community College. I love being able to watch children grow and develop!

If you asked me what my favorite book was, anything PETE THE CAT!
