"My name is Rose Kelley, and I graduated in 2009 with a Bachelor of Arts degree from McDaniel College. I also have my 90 hour Certification in Early Childhood. I have had a variety of work experiences over the years, but have worked with children in some capacity since I was a teenager. I have worked in Sunday schools, learning centers, vacation bible schools, and babysat for many years. I have worked at Providence for a year as the 2's assistant and am now the lead teacher for the 2's! I have four children of my own who are 12, 9, 7 and 3! I grew up in Towson and still live there today with my children, my husband and our sweet dog. I love the atmosphere at Providence; the true care and love for our children that is felt here is unmatched. I believe that the most important parts of a classroom family is trust, respect and love!”
