Nichole Walker, Preschool Director

Hello! My name is Nichole Walker and I am the Preschool Director for the Y Chipmunks Preschool. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education and have been with Y Chipmunks since 2016 as a Senior Teacher. In 2024, I moved into my current role and I am excited to support you and your children in your early childhood education journey! 

Chipmunks has been educating preschool children in Carroll County for over 50 years. In fact, we are now teaching the children and grandchildren of our wonderful alumni. Both of my children went through this program as well. 

We work closely with families and other community resources to build relationships which create a strong foundation for school readiness. Our teachers have an average of eight plus years experience and are all certified in CPR and First Aid. They continue their education on a yearly basis, going far beyond licensing training requirements.

We offer a wide variety of experiences which include science, math, literature, fine arts, health, music, social/emotional growth, and field trips. We find that children learn best through hands-on, engaging activities. The teachers and I invite you to set up a tour at our beautiful Carroll County location. We look forward to hearing from you!
