Miss Aspen Blanchard - Director

Hi, my name is Aspen! I have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Northern Arizona University. I have had the pleasure of working with children for eight years now, as well as, doing administrative work in many different fields. I have taught as an assistant, lead and online teacher throughout these years. It's so exciting to finally be able to join these two fields (administration and early childhood) together as the Director of the Springs Preschool.
I love Jesus, being outside, traveling, fitness & health and doing anything with my dog, Stevie!​ Fun fact: I have lived in Australia!

​Hi, my name is Abby. I am a junior at Arizona Christian University and I am majoring in Family Studies. I have been working here at The Springs Preschool for a year now but worked 2 years previously at Joyful Beginnings Academy. In my spare time, I enjoy playing games, hiking, and visiting my sisters. As an educator, I am part of your kids’ daily lives and routines and I am blessed to have the opportunity to teach them through a Biblical worldview; to see God’s hand through history, His miracles in science, His order in math, His beauty in art and music. I am so excited to see what God has planned for us this school year! :)
