My passion for working with children began at the age of 13 when I started volunteering with youth programs in my community. As I grew older, I continued building experience through a variety of childcare and educational roles, including running summer camp programs for Montgomery County Public Schools, interning in public school classrooms, and spending several years as a nanny.
I have dedicated the last 12 years to growing my career with Celebree School, beginning as a Pre-K teacher and progressing through leadership roles including Assistant Director, School Director, and now District Director. Throughout my journey, I have remained committed to supporting children, families, and educators while fostering high-quality early childhood education programs.
I earned my Associate’s Degree from Frederick Community College in Early Childhood Education and my Bachelor’s Degree from Frostburg State University. Over the years, I have been honored to lead award-winning schools, support the professional growth of countless educators, and help create environments where children can thrive academically, socially, and emotionally.
What Inspires My Passion for Early Childhood Education
What inspires me most about early childhood education is the incredible opportunity we have to shape a child’s future during their most formative years. The relationships built between children, families, and educators create a foundation that extends far beyond the classroom. Watching children gain confidence, discover their strengths, and develop a lifelong love of learning is one of the most rewarding aspects of this work.
Why I Chose Celebree School
I chose Celebree because of its unwavering commitment to its mission, vision, and values. From my very first day, I felt connected to the organization’s focus on nurturing not only children but also families and team members. Celebree School’s culture of growth, support, and excellence has allowed me to build a meaningful career while making a positive impact in the communities we serve.
Goals and Focus in My Current Role
As District Director, my focus is on developing strong leaders, building high-performing teams, and ensuring every school provides exceptional experiences for children and families. I am passionate about coaching and mentoring school leaders, creating consistency across our schools, and helping each location reach its fullest potential. Ultimately, my goal is to support environments where children, families, and educators can all succeed.
Fun Facts
When I’m not working, I enjoy reading fantasy novels, baking, crafting, and spending time with my husband and our three children. Creativity has always been an important part of my life, and I love making handmade items in my spare time. As a proud IVF mom to twins, I have a deep appreciation for the many unique journeys families take. One of my favorite parts of my career is building meaningful relationships with children, families, and team members, many of whom have become lifelong friends.
Hello, I’m Caroline, the School Director at Celebree School of Carney. I have been in Early Childhood education since 2004 and part of the Celebree family since 2011. My interest in Early Childhood Education began at a young age, inspired by my mom, who worked as a preschool teacher at our local community center. I used to love going to work with her and meeting the children and watching them learn and grow over time. I currently hold a Master’s degree in Elementary Education from McDaniel College.
Over the time that I have been in Early Childhood Education I have served as an aide, teacher to all age groups (Infants through School age) and now an administrator. I love the hands-on approach that Celebree takes with our curriculum, it allows children to learn, explore, and grow in their own way and at their own pace and show off their own individual personalities.
