    I have two beautiful daughters, Collene and Chrissie. Collene works aas an educational assistant at the Highroad School, which serves special needs students. Christine works as in ICU Medical Assistant at Johns Hopkins Hospital. They both do great jobs and I’m so very proud of them!

    For the children I watch at our Daycare, they are young, just starting their lives; and I pray for them each day. I remember being on my knees in tears praying for daughters when they were young, thinking that so many things could go wrong. But God answers prayers, just in His own time. The Lord Jesus has answered so many of prayers, and at the right time.

    I have an A.A. degree in Early Childhood Education, and I’m certified in Special Education. I really enjoy it here at Parkville Nazarene Christian Daycare!

  • Ms. Natasha Hollingsworth — with us since January, 2010
  • Hi :-) My name is Natasha Hollingsworth. I am a mother of two girls, Imari and Zuri, and have been working in childcare for five years now. I love my field because I feel that I am taking part in building the character of the children, just like I do my own daughters.

    I particularly love caring for the babies.

    Most parents are comfortable with me immediately, because I am "one-way" all the time. And I feel it is necessary to instill responsibility, love, and courage in the children I care for.

    I have a strong belief in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost; and I believe the ultimate cure for all the world’s grief is to love them as Christ Jesus loves us. I choose to spread His love through my work at Daycare, and in my home life.
