Lacey Buss

Director
Christian Child Care Inc.

“I pursued the Illinois Director Credential to signify my commitment to professionalism and quality childcare. I am impressed with the career lattice of Gateways and all that this program does to ensure that Illinois is a national leader in the field of Early Childhood Education”.

Lacey Buss was awarded the Level I Illinois Director Credential February 2007. She is the Director at Christian Child Care Inc., Lincoln, IL. She has held that position for 3  1/2 years.

“My love for children started at age 9 when I began unsupervised babysitting of my then 1-year old neighbor. Looking back, I must have either been really responsible, or that parent must have been crazy to let me watch her infant at that age! From that point on, I was always found myself working with children. I graduated from Lincoln Christian College with my Associate’s in Early Childhood. My education did not stop there, as I have always sought out professional development opportunities, including the Illinois Director Credential, and intend to pursue my Bachelor’s Degree soon. My heart is in administration, seeking to improve the quality of childcare for children in programs I work in.”
