A Child’s Place was founded by Verna Latchman, who has a passion for children and for teaching. She strongly believes in the importance of nurturing a child’s curiosity. She also feels that “raising” children is a partnership with parents. Her credits include 18 years in the childcare industry as a commercial childcare professional. This track record includes two tenures as a center director, one over a daycare that was licensed for 100+ children in its program.
