Leanna Lingenfelter
Program Director | Wixom
Leanna is the program director for Rosebrook Child Development Center-Wixom. She has her Bachelor's degree in Child Development from Madonna University. She began my teaching career at Rosebrook's sister school- Garden Gate Montessori. Leanna comes to Rosebrook armed with a background of teaching many different learning curriculums, one of the many reasons why she loves Rosebrook is the way they implement all learning styles versus just one. Being a director gives her the best of both worlds, being able to assist teachers and classrooms, as well as organize events and work alongside families. In her free time she loves to spend it on the water either kayaking, boating or swimming. She also enjoy relaxing at home and doing yoga.
