Ms. Jenna

Academy Director

Hi! I’m Jenna, the Director of Kiddie Academy. A native Texan raised in Fort Bend County, I graduated from Terry High School in 2003 and began working in childcare while attending college. After earning my Associate of Arts degree from Wharton County Junior College in 2008, I enrolled at the University of Houston to study early childhood education. However, my passion for childcare led me to pursue a Childcare Director’s License, which I obtained in 2010.   With 21 years in the industry—14 as a Director—I bring extensive knowledge and experience in early childhood education. I love helping children grow and reach their full potential. As a parent to my 10-year-old son, Jeremy, I understand the importance of creating a nurturing learning environment. I look forward to guiding and supporting your children on their educational journey while making learning fun!
