Founder:
Bobbie Ferguson
A a niece inspired by her aunt and her love for jazz and early childhood education.
Mary Lou Williams had a great influence on her niece during her teenage years. While Mary encouraged Bobbie to learn to play the piano (something she never did) Mary did instill other important values.
Bobbie attributes her love of children and education to her aunt, as well as her strong work ethic. She earned her education from the University of Pittsburgh in Child Development as well as graduate credits in Special Education later in life. More importantly, she transferred those values to her children and grandchildren.
