About Debra McCammond (Edit profile)

Debra (Debby) McCammond is the child care programs coordinator for the Early Beginnings Child Development Center in Aurora, Colorado. Her career in early childhood began in 1996 at Community Partnership for Child Development, a Head Start program in Colorado Springs; her first position was part-time bus rider for a rural Head Start classroom. When she left to open Early Beginnings in 2013, she had run the gamut of positions, including paraprofessional, classroom teacher, mentor-coach, and supervisor. McCammond earned her associate's degree in early childhood education from Pikes Peak Community College in 1999 and a bachelor's (summa cum laude) from Adams State University in 2012. McCammond's goal is to replicate the Early Beginnings program within the Aurora Public Schools District. She is passionate about early childhood education, believing that what we do as a profession builds a foundation for lifelong learning starting at birth. She has two children and five grandchildren.
