Meet Bethany
Director
Hi, I’m Bethany, the Director here at Bright Stars! I’ve been in early childhood education for over 11 years and have had the privilege of working with every age group, from infants to preschoolers. I started my career as a preschool teacher and later served as a director at a childcare center in Pullman, WA, which gave me valuable leadership experience. I’m passionate about creating a warm, safe, and engaging environment where every child feels loved and supported. Building strong connections with families is one of my favorite parts of this work. When I’m not at Bright Stars, I enjoy spending quality time with my amazing husband and our five beautiful children.
A beautiful day begins with a beautiful mindset.


Meet Kate
Assistant Director
Hi, I’m Kate—Assistant Director here at Bright Stars and proud Pre-K teacher. With two wonderful children and a husband who shares my love for the outdoors, you’ll often find us soaking up sunshine on the lake or adventuring as a family. I’m passionate about early childhood education and believe in creating joyful, nurturing spaces where every child feels seen, supported, and excited to learn. Helping little ones grow and thrive is truly my favorite part of every day.
You never know what the day will bring, just make sure you bring a smile and laugh along the way!
