Hello! My name is Gidget and I am the Director here at Everyday Discoveries. I have been working in early childhood education for almost 20 years now. I have taught in Pre-K and in infants for many years. My passion has always been with children. I started teaching in my local church with their Mother’s Day Out program and assisting in the nursery. I am a single mom of two wonderful adults. My son is 27 and my daughter is 22. They are my pride and joy. I come from a family of 4 children, with me being the one of the youngest. I have an older sister, brother and a twin sister. My favorite things to do is to spend time with my family, reading and going on walks. Fun fact about myself, I have a twin sister named Bridget.
