In 2006 Shannon Carter and Trisha Webb began working together at Noah’s Ark Learning Center.
Shannon started as an aide in the Center’s 4-year-old classroom as an after school job. During her time at NALC, she also worked as an Assistant and Lead Teacher in the 2-year-old and 4-year-old classrooms. Trisha started as an aide in the 3-year-old classroom, and over the years worked her way up to Lead Teacher.
While working directly with the children and acquiring firsthand knowledge of pre-school curriculum and implementation, Shannon and Trisha each realized a passion for the Early Childhood field, and began pursuing degrees in Education. In 2014 both Shannon and Trisha moved to management positions, Shannon as a supervisor of staff while continuing to teach in the classroom, and Trisha as Assistant Director. It was in these years that a strong partnership was formed, always with an ultimate goal of providing the very best quality childcare to the community.
In 2017, the owners of Noah’s Ark who were preparing for retirement approached Shannon and Trisha about buying the Center. Without hesitation, both women dove into the long process of ownership. In 2018, Shannon and Trisha completed their coursework for their degrees, and officially became Directors and Owners of Carter’s Webb Learning Center!
