Miss Michelle

I have worked for the Blount County School system and my heart is tied to the education of children. I thrive on building relationships with students and being part of their growth.

I have a daughter of my own with special needs. To see her grow beyond Professional expectation is my greatest joy.

I have an Associates in Science and have been with Foothills Preschool since 2021.

I am a caregiver and teacher by nature and I love that I get to be such an important part of kids' lives.

Ms. Holly

I have been involved in childcare for over 21 years. For 16 of those years, I have worked for Foothills. I have been fortunate enough to work with all age groups and found that I love them all. I currently work with our toddler group and serve as Assistant Director.

I love watching them grow and change and how the little things affect them the most. Their smiles, laughter, and hugs always make my day. I am so blessed to have found my calling and even more so because I have found Foothills. The blessings continue with now having my own Grandaughter enrolled at our center.

Ms. Emily

I have always had an affection for teaching. The most common question I recieve is "Why do you want to be a teacher?". It is so much more than the simple reply of "I love kids". As true as this is, the greatest joy comes from seeing a child that is hungry for knowledge excel.

Every child can learn and they are usually very willing participants in the process.

I love being a part of a child doing something for the first time. From first steps to writing. Knowing that I am helping a child grow and giving them every opportunity to some day rule the world, has been my most rewarding job yet.

I once was a student here at Foothills Preschool and now I get to be part of all the great memories these students will carry with them through their lives.

Ms. Missy

I have two teenage girls of my own. I am currently seaking my CDA and hope to one day reach a Bachelors degree in early childchood education.

I enjoy every aspect of teaching and have realized that children can teach us as much as we can teach them. That would be my favorite thing about teaching. I am so glad that I have found my place at Foothills. I have the chance to be a part of a great team that are passionate about the education and developement of young children.

Ms. Amanda

I have been working in the field of education for more than 20 years. I have two children of my own,. and can relate to the wants and needs of the parents who currently allow me to work with their children. I feel blessed to have the chance to help mold our future. I love arts and crafts and hands on is my happy place. I absolutely love organizing activities with my students. One of my favorite quotes is from Anne Shirley. "Tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes in it." We have the opportunity everyday, to make today better than our yesterday, as we live in hope for tomorrow.
