Meet Our Director, Freddie Stroud Jr.
Hi! My name is Freddie Stroud Jr. I am the Center Director here at the Rock Hill, SC location. I graduated from The University of South Carolina Upstate in Spartanburg, SC with a Bachelor of Art Degree in Child Development and Family Studies.
I have been in the Early Childcare field for 11 years. I’ve always had a passion for young children and knew at a young age that I wanted to be a teacher. I love the joy of educating and watching the children grow and learn in their own unique ways. I believe that all children can learn and grow to be intelligent, successful adults.
When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, coaching soccer, playing soccer, riding four wheelers, swimming, hiking, traveling, and attending church.

I have two daughters, a 7-year-old and a 7-month-old who attend The Sunshine House as well. In my spare time you will find me spending time with family, at the beach, or crafting with my Cricut.
