Director's Welcome

Welcome to the Fisher Early Learning Center!

I am honored to lead our mission of providing a rich and inclusive learning environment for all children. Our dedication to celebrating diversity and addressing each child's unique needs is at the heart of our approach. We believe that every child deserves a continuum of learning experiences that fosters growth, creativity, and resilience.

At Fisher, we cultivate a creative and nurturing environment where children from infants to PreK can play, explore, and thrive. Our innovative approach to early childhood education, grounded in research-based practices, is supported by our exceptional team. Collectively, our teachers and staff bring over 400 years of experience in early childhood education, with an average of 11 years per staff member. Impressively, 90% of our staff hold at least one bachelor’s degree, 44% have at least one Master’s Degree, 41% are currently enrolled in courses toward furthering their education, and 6% have earned a PhD, EdD, or EdS.  We are proud to showcase diversity within our staff; being able to not only speak English but also other languages including French, Spanish, Marathi, Hindi, Norwegian, Telugu, Japanese, Farsi, Igbo, Yoruba, Tagalog, and American Sign Language!

Through strong partnerships with our families, the Morgridge College of Education, and our DU community, we strive to be a model of high-quality care and education. Together, we aim to create an optimal learning environment where every child can reach their full potential.

If you are a prospective family or educator eager to learn more about the opportunities available at Fisher, I invite you to reach out. We would be delighted to share how you can be part of our vibrant community and the enriching experiences we offer.

I look forward to working alongside you to cultivate an engaging and supportive experience for our children. 

Thank you for being a part of the Fisher family!

We have had the privilege of being a part of Fisher Center for the last five years, between our two children. Teachers (and administration) have mindfully created a learning environment where my children have felt loved, safe, and ready to learn.

Amy Beth Schulz Fisher Parent & Cherry Creek School District Teacher

Fisher is a place where I know my children will be cared for by the most capable and patient teachers and staff. The culture is so inclusive and welcoming and I know I have support in all aspects of parenting, from academic success to behavior.

Our experience at Fisher has been nothing short of amazing, and that starts with the staff. A short conversation with any of them will show you that they truly care about the welfare of every child in their care.
