Director - Sally Reedy
It is my pleasure to be the Director of Kinder-Haus. I arrived in New Holland in October of 2021 when my husband and I moved from Charlottesville, Virginia. I have directed several other centers, including one in York, Pa. for 16 years. I have taught in public and private schools (Pre-K, Kindergarten, and First Grade). My bachelor’s degree is in Social Work from Eastern Nazarene College (Mass.) and my graduate work is in Elementary Education from Millersville University (Pa.).
My husband, Bud, and I have two married children and three grandchildren; we love spending time with all of them. We also enjoy traveling, sports, music, and food. So, we are combining those favorite things by attempting to visit all the major baseball parks, finding the restaurants Guy Fieri has discovered, and seeking out local thrift stores in the area.
One of my greatest joys is to see the light go on in a child’s eyes when they learn something new. It has been a lifelong goal to provide excellence in my facility as well as help other teachers meet their personal goals. I am also deeply committed to sharing the love and hope that comes from a relationship with Jesus.
