Nicole Padgett is the Center Director of Crabapple Academy. She attended Kennesaw State University where she majored in Early Childhood Education. She is also certified in Montessori instruction. Her educational philosophy is children learn and thrive best in environments that are calm, nurturing and inviting. She feels early childhood education should always engage the whole child; mentally, emotionally, physically and academically. Miss Nicole is a proud mom to four children; two girls and two boys. In her free time, Nicole loves to spend time with her family, run & hike, shop, and loves to bake.
Ms. Roberta hails from South Carolina but has lived in the Atlanta area for over 10 years. She has worked at Crabapple Academy since 2006, where she started as an After School teacher but soon moved to the Infant Suite. She spent many years as our “welcome wagon” in the morning and worked as the lead teacher in the Infant Suite for over five years. She still holds a special place in her heart for those babies and spends part of her day in there; however, her responsibilities have grown and she also works as a closing manager in the afternoons. Roberta comes from a huge family and loves spending time with them outside of work. Her outgoing and bubbly personality makes her a great addition to our management staff.
Alan and Ellen Farnsworth are the son and daughter-in-law of Crabapple Academy's founders and original owners, Karen and Lynn Farnsworth. They assumed ownership of the business in 2009 when Karen and Lynn retired. Mr. Alan has worked as a high school Latin teacher for nearly thirty years, and Ms. Ellen is our resident photographer! She holds a degree in Art History and is the mastermind behind our curricular connections to the art world. She enjoys taking and editing photos of the children, both posed and candid, to share with the parents of the Apple.
