Where collaboration and inspiration work together
Amy
Director of Operations
Hello KRK Families,
My name is Amy Garza and I am the Director of Operations at Kids 'R' Kids of Prosper. I have over 14 years of early childcare experience and I started my Kids 'R' Kids journey almost 9
years ago. At the beginning of my KRK journey, I was an assistant teacher and quickly moved into a lead teacher role. I continued to grow within the school and moved into a manager position shortly before the KRK of Prosper location opened. Once the Prosper location opened, I transferred to the Prosper location as the Assistant Director and was promoted to Director in the fall of 2021. During my down time, I enjoy spending time with my family and strolling the aisles of Target .. My husband and I welcomed our first little boy in November 2020 and our second little boy in May 2024. I studied early education in college and hold an AA of Teaching in EC- 6th. I have a passion for working in the early education field and am so excited to lead the KRK Prosper Team!
