Vicki Waddell, Lead Infant Teacher, 30 Years

I love working at LCA because of the Catholic atmosphere that is felt throughout the building and throughout the staff. I also love that our main goal and priority of our work is for the children whom we serve.

Angela Baranuk, Early Childhood Administrative Assistant, 1.5 Years

I love working at LCA because I truly feel like part of a family, I feel valued and appreciated, and I adore our LCA children and families! At LCA, the arts are considered core, not “extra.” The administration, faculty, staff, parents, and children understand the importance of the arts to a child’s learning and development, as well as their social emotional health, and I am so grateful to be able to share the joy of music with this community!

Amanda Kuntz, Music and Choir

I love teaching at LCA because I feel supported both professionally and personally by the administration, my colleagues, and the parents. Having a strong support system gives me the confidence to step out of my comfort zone and grow as an educator.

I never thought I’d make a career out of daycare life. But now I can’t imagine working anywhere else. I love the atmosphere and the people I work with.

Sarah Bolger, Assistant Teacher, 18 Years

Joanne Juarez, Assistant Teacher, 2 Years

I love working at LCA. From growing relationships with friendly families to working with the amazing administration, LCA is a wonderful, caring community and school.

Tricia Bringman, Lead Infant Teacher, 3 Years

I started working at LCA a little over a year ago. I wanted to work here because of my love of children and also because of my mother. My mother attended St. Augustine Academy as a child for kindergarten through second grade, and then again in high school. She was an incredible, faith-filled, gracious woman who taught me and my 9 siblings what is really important in life: faith, family and kindness. But mostly she always believed in my special gift with children. I feel her guiding me everyday when I’m here. No job rewards like a small child telling you they love you or hearing their laughter, or seeing their wonder at the simplest things. That’s why I love working here.

Mary Kramer, Assistant Teacher, 1.5 Years

I love the daily opportunity to positively impact the lives of the children in our care. The staff here at LCA are wonderful. LCA is a very enjoyable atmosphere to work in.

Maria Petronzio, Assistant Teacher, 2 Years
