I am a mom of three! I was a Director for Kids 'R' Kids for 13 years. I started my journey in ECE when I was 18. I fell in love with the creative and curious love of learning and decided to go to school for it. I have worked in all aspects of the education field and have even worked with children with special needs where I learned ABA therapy. I absolutely love seeing the children learn and explore their environment!

My Name is Kathryn Drake and I have been working with children from infants to preschool for over 10 years. I started my career in Early Childhood Education as a school aide, and have worked various positions over the years, including being a School Director for 5 years, before moving to Nevada. What I enjoy the most about working with children is getting to know each child's unique personality and watching them grow and develop skills they can use in school and in life.
