Melissa Ward

My name is Melissa Ward and I am thrilled to be a part of Abounding Love Preschool.

I grew up in the Milwaukee area my entire life until I moved to Mankato, MN for college. I graduated from Minnesota State University, Mankato with my bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. After graduation my husband, Josh, and myself moved to Lee’s Summit to be closer to his family.  We have three year old twin girls, Lillian and Claire, who cannot be more excited about attending Abounding Love this school year.

After moving to Lee’s Summit, I found a job teaching a private kindergarten class at Primrose School of Lakewood. Sadly, in November 2009 the school closed, but it gave me the opportunity to stay home with my girls. The past two school years I have been blessed with the chance to stay home with Lillian and Claire and also care for two other little boys during the day.

I am excited to start this new adventure at Abounding Love Preschool. I look forward to meeting and building a relationship with all of your children and helping them grow developmentally and with their love for God.

Nancy Acton
Let’s learn, play, explore and have FUN!   Hello, I'm Nancy Acton and I'm so excited and eager to be teaching and working with your child here at Abounding Love Preschool.  I enjoy working with children; talking to them and watching them grow and learn. They are such amazing and interesting little people. 

That’s why I have worked with children for 10 years at Lil' Sprout Kids Day Out in Greenwood until they closed and have loved working here the past year as the Assistant in the 2 years old class.   I held multiple positions including, Asst. Director, PE teacher and teaching 2’s.   I have directed VBS twice and taught many years of Sunday School.  

My husband, Jared, and I live in Lee’s Summit.  We’ve been married almost 28 years and have 2 sons, Bryce, who is attending college at MO S&T in Rolla, MO and Blake who is graduating this year from Lee’s Summit North High.  We have a strong faith in God and attend Abundant Life Baptist Church.   I love to do any activity involving my family whether it’s vacation, eating out or taking our cute Cocker Spaniel, Kirby, for a walk.  I enjoy traveling, walking, gardening and most important, chocolate and Mexican food.

Tracy Robinson

My name is Tracy Robinson and I am the Preschool Teacher and Part Time Director at Abounding Love Preschool.   

My husband, Scott, and I have been married for almost 17 years.  We have been blessed with five beautiful children:   Katie (13), Megan (11 ½ ), Taylor (8 ½ ), Adam (7), & Hayden Rose (3 ½ ).  Hayden Rose will be in the Pre-Kindergarten class at Abounding Love and is very excited to have mommy right across the hall (I anticipate regular visits!).  My family is truly the joy of my life. 

I have worked in early childhood development for the past 11 years.   This is my 2nd year with Abounding Love Preschool.

I was previously a Parent Educator for the Lee’s Summit R7 School District.  I have also taught developmental play classes at Gymboree, ran a childcare from my home, and taught Sunday School at Holy Spirit Parish.  I love working with young children and feel I learn as much from them as they do from me. 

I believe God has big plans for Abounding Love and feel very fortunate to be a part of this ministry!  I look forward to getting to know your children and helping them grow & learn in God’s love.

Stacy Gordey

My name is Stacy Gordey.  I am so excited to be a part of  Abounding Love Preschool!  I can’t wait to meet you and your families.  We will all be blessed to know and learn of God’s loving ways together.

 

My husband Gary and I have been blessed with three amazing children:  Courtney, Mercedes, and Brock.

Our girls are very serious about cheerleading and track!

As for Brock, well, he loves self defense Karate, football, and baseball.  Brock was fortunate enough to be a part of this preschool for a year, and loved every minute! He will be going off to kindergarten in the fall!

 

The past six years I have spent a lot of time organizing events, classes, and meetings for a youth program.  The rest of my time is spent with my family.  We love being outdoors together.  When it rains, look out kitchen! We are bakers - from cookies to cakes, to mixing it up and trying new recipes.  We also love to make hair bows and flip flops.

 

God has blessed our family time and time again. This time we found Beautiful Savior and Abounding Love, with more and more blessings just flowing in!
