Director Diedre

School Director

Ms. Diedre began her career in early childhood education in 1998, inspired by a desire to work close to her son — a decision that led to a deep passion for supporting children and their families. She holds an associate degree in Arts/Business, a Child Development License, a Preschool CDA, and an Early Childhood Education Diploma.

Married with three children and two grandchildren, Ms. Diedre’s family also includes a dog, a cat, and several fish tanks. In her free time, she enjoys mountain biking, cheering on the Dallas Stars and Mavericks, and following F1 racing.

Ms. Diedre is committed to creating high-quality educational environments where children can grow and thrive. With 90% of a child’s adult brain volume developed by the age of six, she believes these early years are essential. As a proud early educator, she is honored to help shape future generations and make a lasting impact on the lives of children.

At Early Care and Education: North Richland Hills, we create a warm and engaging space where children can learn, grow, and thrive.
