Heather Smith
I had worked at C.A.D.S. for over 18 years and returned happily in 2012. For the eight years I was away from C.A.D.S., I worked as a Head Teacher at the Kindercare Learning Center now known as Knowledge Learning Center. I worked at Kindercare in Florida for four years, and while there, I attended classes in the development of infants and toddlers to get certified. When I transferred to Pennsylvania, I earned my CDA (Child Development Associate). In addition, I continued taking professional development classes every three months to further my knowledge of caring for young children. I also have attended the multiple day Infancy Institute at Bank Street College. My heart never left C.A.D.S. during my time away, so it’s wonderful to be back home. I look forward to continuing my position in the Infant Room this year, and working with the youngest of our C.A.D.S.
