Meet Our Staff

Our team of teachers are dedicated to making a difference in the lives of the children we care for.  We all have a variety of experiences and personalities to make Klever Kids what it is today!

Assistant Director
I'm Holly Dube owner of Klever Kids, which I opened in 1999.  I have a degree in Early Childhood and have been in the field for over 30 years.  I have worked with all ages of children and enjoy each group and the challenges they offer.  I have two teenage daughters, two cats, and two dogs that keep me very busy.  When I'm not working I love the outdoors, especially during the warmer months.
My name is Allyson Dube. I graduated high school in 2022 and instantly started working at Klever Kids as an assistant teacher. At the beginning of 2023, I became teacher certified in Infant - Preschool. I am the assistant director and going to school to become lead teacher and director certified. When I am not at work I like to hang out with my cat and ride my dirt bike.

Hi, my name is Michele Folmsbee. I have always enjoyed working and taking care of children since I was a teenager. I started with foster care with my parents. I taught my daughters' CCD classes. I worked and volunteered in the elementary school system for many years. I was a paraprofessional in a classroom with special need students for seven years. I have two adult daughters, a hedgehog, and three cats. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with family, crocheting, arts and crafts, and scrapbooking.
Toddler Room Teachers

My name is Nikki O'Leary. I first started my early childhood education by graduating from Monty Tech in 2020. I've been in all the rooms here at Klever Kids. But the toddler room is my favorite. I'm currently taking night classes to be a phlebotomist. In my spare time, I like to be in the mountains in Vermont or hanging out with my boyfriend and family.

My name is Silvana Garcia, I was born in Peru. I have lived in Gardner the past five years. I started working as one of the teachers in the toddler room in February. My passion for education led me to obtain a professional degree in the field. I worked as a primary school teacher in Peru. Currently I am studying everything related to Child Care at MWCC. In my free time I love playing volleyball, traveling, and cooking.
