Meet the Director: Erin Kellogg

My name is Erin Kellogg and I am the director at North Carson Center Smart Start. I have 20 years of experience in early childhood education including as a nanny, a classroom teacher and a director.  I have obtained my Child Development Associate and I'm in school currently working on a degree in Developmental Psychology. In my spare time I play roller derby and can often be seen skating around town. I can't wait to help your children grow!
