My name is Mrs. Chandra Bowman, and I am the Owner, Teacher, and Camp Director at Faithful Kids Academy. As a Knowledgeable and Seasoned Early Learning Educator and Camp Provider with experience since 2006. I am dedicated to fostering children's development, growth and happiness. I obtain a AAS in Early Childhood Education from SWIC in Belleville, IL and completed student teaching at Marie Schaefer. In 2019 my program became licensed through DCFS State of Illinois, along with Airforce Childcare Requirements and NAFCC Accreditation. I wanted to create a program where children and parents are comfortable in a home-like setting, with a curriculum and activities tailored for children's development and needs, all while having FUN, and making life-long FRIENDS. Teaching and Caring for Children is my calling and it's my passion; it is what I truly love, and I truly believe it is my Purpose in Life, and I am so excited to Teach Your Little Ones!
