Bios

• Kristin Duy

  Kristin truly loves to visit all of the classrooms at her center so that she can see firsthand all of the wonderful learning that is taking place in her building! Kristin grew up in WI and graduated with her degree in Elementary Education from the University of Wisconsin. After getting married she moved to CA and taught fifth grade for 2 years before moving to Spokane, WA because of her husband's job. She quickly found a job teaching third grade at a Catholic grade school. After three-and-a-half years she found herself on the move to Illinois where she taught kindergarten for several years before deciding to be a stay at home mom to her 4 children. Kristin re-entered the workforce after 4 years at home to be a Director of Children's Activities at a local Country Club. Six years ago she decided to make a change and joined KinderCare as a Center Director. Kristin has the best of both worlds being the leader of an amazing staff of teachers and a "buddy" to over 100 kids at her center!
