An early childhood learning center 

     Hello!  My name is Heather.  I am the owner of The Growing Patch at St. Mary's Episcopal Church in Dade City, FL.  I have a degree in Early Childhood Education and an endorsement for Reading K-12.  I have 18 years of teaching experience (Kindergarten and First Grade) and now I have been teaching classes at The Growing Patch for 2 years.  

     The Growing Patch was created to provide a quality learning center for young children.  We know now, more than ever, the importance of having a safe place where children can come to learn, have fun, and interact with one another.  My hope is that you will find The Growing Patch to be a welcoming community for your child to learn and grow.  I am excited to offer this learning center to our community!
