Meet Our Director, Fran Bartlett
Hi! My name is Fran Bartlett and I have dedicated more than 30 years to shaping young minds at The Sunshine House, where my passion is caring and nurturing children every day. I am a proud graduate of Trident Technical College, where I earned honors in applied science and early childhood education, laying the foundation for a lifelong career in early learning.
I have been married to my husband, John, for over three decades. I find joy in family life with our two children, Cody and Kobe, and our beloved dog, Myles. Other things I love doing are spending time at the beach, getting lost in a good book, and enjoying music. I am committed to early childhood education and am so thankful to be a part of the Sunshine House family!
