Lacey Ahrens

I am a dedicated wife and proud mother of four, with over 13 years of hands-on experience in the field of early childhood education. My passion for nurturing and educating young children has guided my career, where I’ve had the privilege of supporting families and helping children grow through their most formative years.
I currently hold a Child Development Associate (CDA) credential, and I am recognized as a Step 5 provider with the Step Up To Quality program, reflecting my commitment to excellence in early learning. In addition to my professional work, I am a college student actively pursuing an associate degree in Early Childhood Education, further deepening my knowledge and expanding my impact in the field.
I started working as a mentor with the Buffalo County Champions over 3 years ago and am excited to see our work spread past the county line to help those in the process, and to truly build that sense of community and support among childcare providers.
