Welcome to the Deerwood Campus
Chappell Deerwood is the largest center in the Chappell system and holds more than 200 students. Deerwood takes students from six-weeks through VPK, and we take older “grader” children during school holidays and summer camp. The Deerwood location was the first planned child development center built in an office park setting in the United States and opened in 1983.

About Our Campus
I came to Chappell in 2019, after seven years as the Executive Director of Creative Minds Academy, where is supervised two centers and 50 staff members. I’ve been in childcare since 1997 and have my AA degree in Early Childhood Education from Massasoit Community College in Massachusetts. While in Massachusetts, I started a family childcare that grew so big, I had to buy a center to accommodate all of the families who wanted to come to me! I ran that center for seven years before I moved to Florida to start a new life!!
