Thank you for considering LPG as the place for your child’s early development. I have over 20 years of reputable experience in early childhood development, and am the owner, founder, and director of LPG since its start in 2014. Before opening LPG, I worked for over 20 years as a lead preschool teacher where I positively influenced the lives hundreds of children. I built LPG from the ground up to be a fun, safe, and clean space for the children of the community to thrive, grow, socialize, and learn to love God. I oversee a wonderful teaching staff and help design curriculum to help children learn in the name of the Lord. I look forward to meeting you and answering any questions you might have! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/546eac60e4b067a961ab1ca9/9fbc761c-6c1f-4bd9-b8f4-b16a9367c561/83946976-77B7-471C-B14C-50AC29271506.JPG Our Staff - Mary Zaarour Assistant Director Hello, my name is Mary Zaarour.
