I worked for Tiny Tots Preschool. I resigned because I relocated to WV. I enjoyed working there because the children were treated with respect, the curriculum was taken seriously and all aspects adhered to as mandated by the Board of Education. Their main focus was the children's education and safety and to assure that the school had very well educated employees. This school takes pride in what they do and provide to families with children and the community.
