Kesha Coley

Director and Owner

Mrs. Kesha has a true passion for early childhood education. I've been teaching children for 16 years. I feel as though early childhood is where it all starts and we are the educators that get to teach kids before they enter into public school. During my time outside of work, I love to travel with my husband and 3 children. I enjoy reading and more traveling. Family is very important to me, which makes working with children, families and the community easier. I plan on teaching and enjoying children until God tells me otherwise.

Mr. Coley

 Owner and Assistant Director

 I truly enjoy teaching children. For 15 years I've enjoyed working with children and adults with traumatic brain injury and autism. When I'm not working, I love watching Football and basketball. #GOPANTHERS and #GODUKE.  I enjoy family time with my wife and 3 children and traveling the world. I believe teaching children is a challenge but with the help of families and community, we all can make a huge impact.

I love to enrich their lives with knowledge and watch them grow. I want to continue to teach children that no matter what you look like or come from they can succeed and deserve to be loved and protected. When I am teaching children, I let them know you can learn, you will learn, they are somebody, they are special, God loves them and I do too.
