Director - Ashley Barringer
My name is Ashley Barringer. I have lived in Arlington, TX all my life. I have been in early childcare education for over 20 years. I began as an assistant infant teacher then became the lead toddler teacher. I continued my career in early childhood education beginning my journey with Children’s Lighthouse Viridian before we opened in 2019. I started as the lead toddler teacher swiftly moving into the company as an enrollment specialist then progressing to Assistant Director. I was proud to become the Center Director in October 2022. I love being part of the early childhood community and having the chance to see every child grow. I am proud of my team and believe that they are the foundation for all the young lives that they touch. I am excited to see what the future brings!
