Awesome Preschool

My son went to Grow and Learn last year and he loved it so much. Every day he would say mom can I go to school today even on the weekends. He loved his teachers Miss. Rachel and Miss. Misty and ......
Miss Misty
Hi my name is Miss Misty  I have been owner of Grow and Learn Preschool for  a  little over 7 years now.  I started this business because of my genuine love of children.  I also was in search of a preschool program for my own children that was curriculum based and could not find anything that was what I was looking for.  I am originally from Wisconsin and that is where I received my associates degree in Early Childhood Education.  After graduating college I went on to become a nanny for eleven years.  Once I had my own children I decided to start Grow and Learn.  Not only do I love owning and running this business but I also love teaching in the classroom.  Seeing these children move on and be in the top of their Kindergarten classes is so rewarding.  I can't wait to see what this year has in store for each of the Grow and Learn students!!

Miss Rachel

Hi my name is Miss Rachel.  I am now going into my third year of teaching at Grow and Learn and I absolutely love it!  I have two wonderful boys ages 9 & 6.  I have lived in the Gilbert area for a little over 10 years. Both my boys have attended Grow and Learn Preschool.  After watching their curriculum and seeing the amazing things they taught my children I jumped at the chance to become a teacher.  In the past I have done in home childcare and I currently teach in the preschool room at my church.  I really love working with children and watching their eyes light up as I teach them something new.  I am excited to be here and look forward to teaching your children for many years to come.

Miss Gina

Hi My name is Ms. Gina.  I live in Gilbert,AZ.  I have been married to my wonderful husband for 13 years and have three great kids; Cody(18), Dallas (13), and Dylan(9).  I have lived in Arizona since 1998 and have worked in childcare since 1996.  I really enjoy watching the children learn new things and the best part of my job is being able to prepare them for Kindergarten.  They amaze me everyday with how much they love to learn!!  In my free time I enjoy scrapbooking, sewing, going to the movies with my family, and bunko.  I cannot wait to meet you and your children!




Miss Mandie

Hi my name is Miss Mandie.  I currently live in Gilbert, AZ with my husband and 2 ½ year old son Cody.  I have always had a true love of working with children.  In college I studied Early Childhood Education and Development along with Secondary Education.  I have over 7 years experience in teaching and assisting with children of all ages.  I have to say my absolute favorite age group to teach is the preschool/early elementary ages because they are full of energy and eager to learn new things.  I am excited for this opportunity to work at Grow and Learn Preschool and look forward to meeting you and your children.


Miss Nikki


Hi, my name is Miss Nikki. I moved to Arizona five years ago from the East Coast and absolutely love it here! I am a very family- oriented person and spend the majority of my free time singing. I do not have any children of my own, although my three dogs are treated as though they are.   

I began working at a childcare facility and found that children are my passion. I realized then that I wanted to make a difference in their lives. I love learning and am constantly doing so. I am working now toward my degree in Elementary Education. I am so excited to be given the opportunity to be a part of the Grow and Learn Preschool team and cannot wait to meet you all!
