Lydia has been with Little Jewels since 2022. She was born and raised in Decatur, IL where she worked at a daycare. She was an assistant in school age, teacher for 2 years old and 3 years old, and recently a teacher for Toddler's Two's classroom. She attended Richland Community College, where she received her certification in Early Childhood Education. Lydia love JESUS, her family, sketching, and her dog, Lulu. She loves being part of the children's lives through teaching, shaping, and caring for each and every child.

I graduated from North Central College in 2024 with a degree in Communications. I have 2 nieces and a nephew with whom I spend as much time as possible. I love being active, and when the weather is warm, I try to spend as much time outside hiking, swimming, or boating, anything I can do to get moving outside.

Hi! My name is Avah Housman. I am a sophomore at Illinois State University majoring in Communication Sciences and Disorders. I love spending time with my friends, family, and dogs! I am very excited to be apart of the Little Jewels team!
