Hi, I’m Amber and I’ve been a nurse for 4 years. I started my career in Maryland and then moved to Texas before moving back home to California. I look forward to expanding my horizon with this new and exciting opportunity at Together We Grow. I love board games of all kinds. I also enjoying spending time by the water or hanging with my dog, Archimedes.

When I first started my career as a RN, I worked as a school nurse where I learned of my passion to help support children reach their full potential. More recently in my career, I worked in the inpatient adult setting, but I felt the need for a change. I loved my time as a school nurse, and I always knew I’d want to come back into pediatric nursing. I truly love being a part of the Together We Grow team, and my primary goal here is to help facilitate the positive impact that TWG continuously provides for the children here. I’m excited that I have the opportunity to support and build relationships with the children and families here at TWG. In my free time, I like to do arts and craft and spend time with my family. My husband and I have two girls. I also enjoy working out so I can eat a good meal right after!

I have been with Together We Grow for over 10 years. I have been a teacher in the classrooms as well as a teacher for weekend care. I became the Center director in 2014. On a daily basis I love to take the time to meet and get to know all the children. When parents arrive at the end of the day, I like to take some time to share funny stories with them about their children. On my time off I enjoy spending time with my family, including 2 boys and a dog. My hobbies include playing video games and trying new foods.

I have been working with Together We Grow since 2004. I started my career as a nurse with the company at the Oceanside Center. When the Oceanside center closed and the Vista Center opened in 2015, I started working in Vista. I am in a unique position having dual roles in our center. I am the Center Director, managing the roles and responsibilities of Community Child Care Licensing for our typically developing children, as well as enrolling those children into our care. I am also the Nursing Supervisor, managing the roles and responsibilities for our medically fragile children. All of the children, typically developing and medically fragile, touch my heart deeply. I love working with the children and families, building relationships, getting to know them and learning how best to serve them. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family.

I have been working with Together We Grow in my current role as the RN Case Manager since 2021. Prior to starting work here, I worked as an Emergency Room RN for 5 years. l enroll new medically fragile children into our center and follow them during their time here. I enjoy being part of the team in Vista, helping in the classrooms, working alongside the remarkable staff. Building relationships and trust is an important part of my job, both with the children and the families. I enjoy the energy and enthusiasm that the children bring to my day! On my days off, I love spending time with my children and husband. I enjoy listening to music, building and maintaining my aquarium and riding my motorcycle!

As a preschool teacher, I’ve been working in the childcare industry for 20 years with 10 of those years at Together We Grow. Together We Grow gave me the opportunity to grow and become a Center Director. I love guiding other preschool teachers to become great leaders. Working with children is an amazing field to make your career. Building and shaping our future children is a gift. I am grateful to have a supportive family that has been with me through my career and whom I love spending time with just making memories.

I have been a Pediatric RN for 6 years and have worked with children for over 18 years. I received my bachelor’s degree in nursing from Brigham Young University in Idaho. I have been with Together We Grow for 3 years, starting my career at the Vista Center as an RN Case Manager. When the newest center opened, I started working in Temecula as it was much closer to my home. I like being a part of this family owned company as I feel valued. I enjoy working with and getting to know the children and their families. I am able to customize the child's care closer to what they need, providing them with the best care possible. My family and I enjoy Disneyland and other theme parks. Roller coasters are my favorite!

I have been working with Together We Grow since 2005. I started my career with Together We Grow at our Oceanside Center. When that center closed and a new center was opened in Vista in 2015, I moved along with them continuing to work for the company. When the newest center was opened in Temecula in 2019, I started working there as it was located very close to my home. I enjoy interacting with the children and their families. It has been a privilege to be a part of their life, watching them grow and develop. My own two young children have received care from the Together We Grow family. I enjoy spending time with my family. I also like cooking, traveling, and crafting.

I have worked for Together We Grow for 26 years! I worked in the classrooms providing nursing care to the medically fragile children for many years. I recently began working in Case Management which I am thoroughly enjoying. This place is my home and the people are my family. I truly believe that there’s no place on earth that’s a better fit for me. These children and their families have made my life’s work more meaningful than I could ever have imagined. I’m a mother of three adult children and have one grandson. I love traveling and am enjoying my best life!

Hi, I’m Jade and currently function as the Regional RN Administrator. I started my career as an LVN and worked in different clinical settings prior to working at Together We Grow in 2003. I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing in 2011. During my years working with the typical and medically fragile children, I always made sure that our “babies” received the highest level of care. My commitment to providing compassionate and quality health care played a significant role in my development as a nurse. This is a lesson I instill in all our novice staff members. It takes a special individual to work with our children.

Outside of work, I prioritize my role as a parent, enjoy traveling, and making the most of my days off. I am obsessed with Korean shows! Moreover, I am a passionate supporter of the Padres and my son’s baseball team!
