Proud to support a local, woman-owned business 💛

I had the opportunity to design the enrollment flyer for Redrock Pre-K Academy, a state-licensed preschool serving families in the Bloomington Hills / Desert Hills area and enrolling children ages 3–5.

Beyond the design work, I’ve personally seen Ms. Neely teach — with 15 years of classroom experience, kindergarten readiness is truly her specialty. Parents have shared positive feedback about their children’s growth and excitement to attend.

Enrollment Day details are included in the flyer below.
If you know a local family who may be looking for a preschool option, feel free to share.

One of my favorite parts of my work is helping local businesses grow—especially those that truly serve families well.

I’ve loved working with Redrock Pre-K Academy, and it’s clear that this program is thoughtfully designed to prepare children for kindergarten while still allowing them to be kids.

They’re currently offering a January enrollment special —
🎉 50% off enrollment fee & first month tuition

If you know a family looking for preschool, I’d appreciate it if you could check them out or share this post.

The Dinner on Main is fabulous (if there are spots left) but pricey. However, they are having an art walk on main street at the same time that is FREE and open to the public, with live entertainment and painting. It should be a magical night to stroll down closed Main Street in St. George!

🎬 This is the first Reel I’ve fully scripted and planned — and I’m excited to share it!

I created it to help promote Redrock Pre-K Academy, a local preschool for 3- and 4-year-olds led by a certified early childhood teacher with over 15 years of experience. The program blends play-based learning with real kindergarten readiness — all in a nurturing, 2.5-hour format (morning or afternoon).

This project was such a meaningful collaboration, and I’d really love your feedback:
❓ Does this message resonate with you?
❓ Would it catch your attention as a parent?
❓What would make it even stronger?

If you know someone with a preschooler in Southern Utah, feel free to share or tag them — Redrock is offering 50% off the enrollment fee through August 8!
