First Step Preschool Director

My name is Jaimie Simms and it is an honor to be the director of First Step Preschool.

I possess a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Missouri-St. Louis. I have been a childhood educator and program director for over 25 years. I believe in the importance of providing high quality preschool and care for children. Together with a team of dedicated and creative teachers, I am committed to providing your children with an excellent early childhood education in a fun and nurturing environment.

My husband and I have been married for 26 years.  We have one son together.  I enjoy spending time with my husband, spending time outside when the weather permits and visiting my son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter as often as possible.  I also enjoy playing frisbee with my Labrador Retriever.

It is a privilege to be a part of so many children's lives and to share in the growth and development of every one of them.
