Hello everyone! My name is Nicolette Zarzabal-Valencia but many of you may know me as Mrs. Nikki. I am currently the Assistant Director for the JSU Child Development Center. While I wear many hats, here are a few things to know about me: 

My Child Development experience dates back to 2013, where I served as a camp counselor for special needs children ranging from ages 6 to 21. From there I was chosen to be a pediatric consultant from the University of Miami as manager of the program, while being tasked with things such as budgeting and overseeing projects. Thus, starting my Child Development career.
