Steph LauberChild Care Center Director

“H i, my name is Steph Lauber. I just completed my third credential

through UW-Platteville. I have completed the Administrator and Preschool Credential and just earned my Infant and Toddler Credential. I heard about the credentials through my boss.

I thought, ‘Well, maybe I should try this!’ Since the credential classes are all offered online, it has allowed me the opportunity to enhance my education while working full time and balancing my family life as well. I have used the information I learned in class to assist my teaching staff with difficult situations and children. With me being the director of my center, these classes have really impacted my life in so many ways!”
