Nicole graduated from Sheridan College with a diploma in Early Childhood Education in 1997 and has been working in the field for over 25 years. She has over two decades of experience working with a variety of different age groups. Nicole joined BrightPath in September 2001 as a Kindergarten educator and over the course of working for BrightPath, she has had the pleasure of working at different locations.
According to Nicole, the best part about being a Centre Director is spending time in the programs, engaging in activities, and seeing the children's happy and smiling faces. She enjoys watching the children learn, grow, and develop as the days go on.
Nicole has two girls that keep her busy and on her toes. They love to spend quality time outside together, hiking, swimming, and enjoying their family cottage.
