Ms. Amber
Founder
- Welcome to our Loving Start website! I know picking a childcare center is a really big decision, so thank you for taking the time out to learn more about us. I opened up the Loving Start Learning Center in 2001 when my first born son was only seven months old and I was already pregnant with my second son. I wanted to create a school I would want my own kids to go to. Today all four of my kids are all adults and each one of them went through the program. I cried like a baby when my youngest daughter graduated from Loving Start many years ago. Now I look forward to the day my grandbabies attend Loving Start. So thankful for our amazing team at Loving Start and the impact we can make on our communities.
Ms. Shannah
regional Director
- I am the mother of three amazing daughters who have or are currently working for Loving Start and I am so proud. Working with children and their families is such a gift and I am so lucky to be working at Loving Start. I started at Loving Start in 2012 and have been so blessed to see it grow. I am now the Regional Director and I am so happy to guide and support our amazing staff. My goal is to help create a place where children are treated as individuals and can explore learning in a variety of ways and spark an interest in learning that lasts a lifetime and to also show families that a Loving Start is a Loving Start.
Ms. Jacklyn
Center Manager and Adventurers’ Teacher
- Hi, I‚am Jacklyn and I‚am the site director at Loving Start Leaning Center in Cameron Park. I have worked with children for 11 years now and I can truly say it is my passion! Being a preschool teacher you get to see so many milestones in their early years and there is something so special seeing their eyes light up when they discover something new! I love that I get to be such a big part of that. When I'm not working with the children I love spending time with my husband, tending to our homestead and being in the garden with our dogs, chickens, ducks and pet pig Poppy!

MS. Casey
Imagineers’ Teacher
- I'm a wife, mom of two boys, and Air Force veteran. I have been volunteering and working with young children since I was in middle school. I love working with young kids each day and being a part of their early learning experience. Being able to watch them conquer obstacles in both curriculum and socially with friends, brings me so much joy. As pre-school teachers we have an incredible opportunity to help set a positive foundation and ready students for their grade school experience and beyond.

- I'm Miss Haley! I am a mama to my sweet 2 year old daughter, Hazel, and a baby boy on the way! Hazel was born with a clubfoot, and has had amazing care to correct it through Shriner's Hospital. It is a big part of our lives, and she is thriving! I have three fur babies, a dog named Raider, and two cats named Lilo and Nala! I love to read, and am a big Disney fan. My favorite thing is to spend time with my daughter and husband David! I began working with children when I started babysitting at 13, and I never stopped.
MS. MIDORI
Discoverers’ Teacher
- I've been working with young children for over 30 years now. Started off when my little sister was born when I was 11 yrs old. I volunteered at my old Montessori school in Placerville when I was 17 and it is still owned by my former teacher. I graduated from UC Santa Barbara in 1999. I have been married for 19 years and have 4 beautiful children. I love doing things with my children. My youngest, Emi, keeps me on my toes. I love art, as do my children. Love spending time outdoors and Monterey is one of our favorite places to visit as a family.
Ms Carissa
Teacher
- Hello, I’m Miss Carissa. I love road trips, spending time with family, and being outside while finding the beauty in nature! I have 3 littles of my own, Raymond, Tucker and Paityn. I have been working with children professionally since my senior year of high school. My favorite age to work with is definitely toddlers because of their excitement to learn and try new things and how capable they are of learning so many new things. The most rewarding part about being a teacher is watching their growth throughout the year!
