Trudy Heck - Head Teacher
Trudy was born and raised in England, but traveled between the USA and England in her teenage years, and when she was a Nanny. She moved to this country when she married her husband Ken sixteen years ago. Trudy worked as a Travel Agent for eight years until her daughter, Stephanie, was born. Stephanie, who is entering the 5th grade at Parkman Elementary, spent two years at Here Wee Grow! Trudy at first volunteered her time at preschool, and became a teaching assistant when her daughters' time at HWG was finished. Working at Here Wee Grow! kindled a strong desire to continue to work with young children, and so she began working on a degree in early childhood education. Trudy has recently completed her degree and holds an A.S. in Early Childhood. Trudy volunteers at her daughter's school and with the Parkman PTO and spends much of her free time being a dedicated soccer and tennis mom to her daughter.
