Meet Our Director, Jeannie Russell
Hi, I’m Jeannie Russell, and I’ve been in childcare since 2006. While I’ve worked with all age groups, two-year-olds are my specialty. I hold a Master's Degree in Business Administration with a focus in Human Resources.
Before moving to Tennessee in 2018, I taught in Georgia. I’m a proud mother to a beautiful daughter, and we love spending time together—whether it's playing card games, roller skating, or baking delicious desserts.
I’m dedicated to providing high-quality education with a focus on developmentally appropriate practices for children. At The Sunshine House, families will find a welcoming, organized environment full of laughter and learning, supported by a motivated and creative team. Above all, we strive to offer families peace of mind, knowing their children are in caring hands.

Meet Our Assistant Director, Lindsey Driggers
HI! I’m Lindsey Driggers and I have been in childcare since 2019. I started out in the Infant classroom and moved up to Assistant Director very quickly because of my drive and ability to just “get it.” I currently hold my Master’s in Business Administration – Human Resources and plan on continuing in my love of learning.
I am originally from Georgia but moved to Tennessee in 2019 and started a family with my husband and two sons. The boys and I enjoy playing games together, completing puzzles together, and going camping in our RV.
I believe children learn best through play. Being a part of the Hixson Sunshine House Team has shown me what a fun, inviting place of business can do, to not only the moral of the staff, but also the love and trust we gain from the families and children that we serve.
