Hello, my name is Cindy Ideker. I am the Pre-K teacher at Martin Luther School.
I have lived in Joplin my entire life, graduating from Joplin High School in 1994. I received my Child Development Associate Credential in 2007, and graduated from Crowder College with an Associates Degree in Child Development in 2009. I was co-owner of Ladybugs and Jellybeans Childcare and Preschool for 20 years, where I served as the director and lead teacher for the preschool/pre-k program.
I have been a member of Immanuel Lutheran Church for about 13 years where I serve on the Youth Board and Altar Guild.
I have been married to my husband, Joseph, for 14 years. We have 2 amazing daughters, Caleese and Jesse. We have a wonderful grandson, Floyd, and a yellow lab named Sadie.
I look forward to teaching your child about God’s Love and Grace, along with the skills they will need as they begin their education.
In His Name,
Cindy Ideker
