Owner & Founder
Hello, and welcome to Tiny Toes University.
Hello, and welcome to Tiny Toes University! My name is Ashley, and I am the proud owner and founder of Tiny Toes University, where our mission is simple: to provide children with a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where little toes take big steps.
Working with children has been my passion since I was a child myself and I've worked with children for over 11 years. Through my career, I've had the privilege of helping children learn, grow, and develop confidence during some of the most important years of their lives.
Before opening my own daycare, I spent 8 years as a preschool teacher, where I gained valuable experience creating meaningful learning experiences and building strong relationships with children and their families.
