Director
Jordan joined Wee Care in 2013, and with over 12 years of dedication, she has become an essential part of our community. She began as the Lead Infant Room Teacher before stepping into the role of Assistant Director and now serves as our Administrative Director. With a strong eye for detail and exceptional organizational skills, Jordan manages everything from staff hiring and scheduling to enrollment, annual paperwork, parent communication, menu planning, and more—all to ensure our school runs at its very best. Outside of work, she is an avid reader who can often finish a book in a single day.
