     I’ve had experience working with infants all the way to school age children. Ever since 2017 I’ve worked on and off at a local daycare while going to college. I graduated from West Chester University of Pennsylvania in 2019 with minors in Professional Education and Youth Empowerment and Urban Studies. After graduation, I took a year off and worked full time as preschool teacher. My time working with children have been some of the most rewarding moments in my life. Even though my primary career path involves college students, I still value the time I get to spend with little ones. ​

Nursery Teacher
Hi I’m Shirley Miller 

     I’m originally from South Tampa born and raised. I graduated from Plant high in 2012. Currently still attending Liberty university online to finish my degree. My husband and I have two almost 3 boys. I have been working with kids my whole life pretty much  from my church nursery when I was younger to substitute teaching as an adult. I’m happy to not only work for the church nursery but the preschool as well as a 2’s teacher.

Cyndi Canup
Nursery Teacher
Hi everyone!
 
     I am very excited and feel very blessed to be a part of the PCPC Nursery.  I’ve spent my whole life around children. I have 50 + years of experience with babies and children and I have a lot of love to give!  My desire is to provide a safe, loving environment for the babies and children of PCPC and to make the parents feel comfortable leaving their child in our care.
 
     During the week I am a part time nanny for two wonderful families.  In my spare time I enjoy working in my yard and spending time with my 2 adult children.
