Benefits of Membership

From the President

Jami Dennis

Hello friends! I hope you all are doing well and the start of Q2 has been a positive one for each of you. Personally, I’ve already put Q1 2023 in my rearview mirror (they can’t all be amazing, right?) and I’m focused on ensuring our second quarter is as productive, profitable and positive. So on that note, I’ll be using this month’s message to shine a bright light on APNA’s long-time Administrator, Kellie Geres, in honor of her upcoming 10-year anniversary with the organization!

After working with Kellie for a decade, I can honestly say she is all the things: she is organized and thoughtful, persistent and strong, smart and forward-thinking, kind and fun-loving, dedicated and hard-working. And to me, she’s more than an administrator – Kellie is a friend, a colleague and someone I lean on to keep APNA moving forward.

Details and deadlines are her jam. Day in, and day out, Kellie can be found working hard behind the scenes providing support to our members, sponsors and vendors, keeping our volunteer board on-task and on-track (as you know, wrangling a group of entrepreneurs not an easy job), and tirelessly coordinating all of the details to ensure our Masterminds, educational webinars, and annual conferences, virtual and in-person, go off without a hitch. It’s a BIG job, one that’s grown in importance over the years because of the capable person Kellie is.

But enough from me, let’s hear what a few of Kellie’s other fans have to say:

“Kellie’s dedication to supporting all aspects of the in-home childcare industry has been nothing less than extraordinary. She is one of a kind – how lucky we have been to have her on our team!” Wendy Sachs, Philadelphia Nanny Network

“Kellie knows what you need before you need it. I wouldn’t have been able to be a long- term volunteer within APNA if it hadn’t been for all of her hard work and support.” Ginger Swift, ABC Nannies & Domestics, Inc

“On my first day in this industry I was told Kellie was someone I had to meet. The advice was spot on, as no one is more connected than Kellie. She’s always been so kind and willing to share her wisdom. We’re all lucky to have her playing a role in APNA.” Jay Schulze, HomeWork Solutions, Inc.

“Kellie is a superstar! She is a person you can always count on to give more than 100%. She is the woman behind the women (and men) of APNA, providing support and organization for the association for 10 years.” Denise Collins, Aunt Ann’s In House Staffing

“Kellie is excellence personified. She’s an essential component of everything we do at APNA. I am so grateful for her compassion, wit, and dedication to this industry.” Erika Slade, E-Nanny

“Kellie plays a huge role on moving APNA forward and keeping all of the board members on task. Kellie is instrumental to not only APNA but the childcare industry as a whole and her lifetime dedication to this industry is admirable!” Bayly Silverman, Your Happy Nest

So Kellie, from all of us at APNA – board members, sponsors, vendors, and our growing membership – happy anniversary! Thank you for everything you do.

And to you all, here’s to a strong Q2! Time is going to fly by, as it always does, so be sure to stay tuned for more information on our 2023 Conference. Registration is opening soon. And as always, I can’t wait to see you all very soon.

With much gratitude,

Jami Dennis
