Meet the Team We are passionate about children! Our mission is to ensure they feel loved, inspired and well cared for.

Mrs. Michelle has been a part of the Kids Garden family from the beginning! She earned her B.A.S in elementary education from the University of South Carolina and has been passionate about teaching since childhood. She loves to travel and was fortunate to study abroad in Reggio Emilia, Italy, which is known for one of the teaching styles and philosophies that Kids Garden incorporates into its curriculum. As the director of our Mt. Pleasant location, she loves making connections with the children, interacting with parents, and collaborating with our inspiring team of teachers. She is incredibly grateful for the Kids Garden community and has enjoyed being a part of its growth!

Hi, I’m Maren Anderson-Moore and I am the owner/operator of Kids Garden Charleston. I discovered a large need for childcare when trying to find a safe, stimulating, secure, and nourishing environment for my son. I saw an opportunity to combine my three greatest passions—education, the environment and holistic health—and help fellow parents in the process. Kids learn best through play and Kids Garden is a learning center designed just for that. It's a community space where parents can feel confident taking their kids, and where kids get excited about learning.
