Meet Our Director, Kiva Goad
Hello, I'm Kiva Goad and I have spent my entire adult life with children! I absolutely love my director role and am excited about working with The Sunshine House. This opportunity has given me insight into the ever-changing learning techniques for children.
I have my Bachelor’s Degree in Sociology from Salem College and two Associate's Degrees, one in Early Childhood Development and the other in Early Childhood Education. I also obtained my Early Childhood Credentials and Administration Credentials from Forsyth Technical Community College.
My passion is teaching children and educators to be the best that they can be. Successful children provide a successful future. I am truly looking forward to building successful relationships!
