Profile

Karyn Gardner has over 30 years of experience working in faith-based, center-based, and on-site preschool and childcare. She studied early childhood education and health sciences at Irvine Valley College and Saddleback College. She has a passion for helping children grow up knowing their identity in Christ and how they can do all things through Christ who strengthens them.

Mrs. Gardner attends 412 Church in Temecula where she has volunteered as a childcare supervisor for 7 years. Her favorite Bible verse is 1 Timothy 4:12, “Don’t let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity.” She believes everyone, even young children, set examples in what they say, the way they live, how they love others, in their purity, and how they live a life of faith.

Off campus, Mrs. Gardner enjoys spending time with her family and friends. Her favorite place to vacation is Yosemite. She is also the founder and president of a nonprofit called 1% NO MORE! – and anti-human trafficking ministry.

Mrs. Gardner has been married to her husband, Robert, for over 25 years. They have 2 children, Jordan and Kaylin, and a daughter-in-law, CiCi, and will soon be grandparents to a little girl named Alice.
