DOTI SADDLER Doti has been happily married to her

elementary school sweetheart, Jonathan, for 19 years. They have two sweet children, Opal (12) and Stephen (10). In addition, two yorkie-poos, Max and Diego (4) complete the family. Doti began teaching preschool at CLC in 2005. In 2006, their family moved to Brunswick, Georgia for three years. It was no coincidence that they moved next door to a preschool director, who hired her immediately. When they moved back to Virginia in 2009, they settled in Mechanicsville. No distance could keep her from CLC and she began working here two weeks after moving back. Doti is currently teaching the Tues/Thurs two's but has also taught Toddlers. Children are definitely her passion! She truly believes they are each a precious gift from God and should be cherished. It is impossible to give too many hugs and kisses to our children!
