Ali Sheeder

Ali was born in New Jersey and relocated to Middle Tennessee in 2013. She is currently pursuing a degree in Child Psychology with a minor in Education at Lipscomb University. Ali has been working with children for many years, having served as a teaching assistant during high school and teaching swimming lessons for the past seven summers.

Ali has a passion for creativity, expressed through arts/crafts and dancing, and cherishes spending time with her friends and family. She is looking forward to the upcoming school year, marking her third year with the Spring Hollow community.

Kamille Jordan

Kamille was born in Nashville, Tennessee. She was raised in the Marshall county/ Spring Hill area, and started at Spring Hollow in 2022 the summer before her senior year of high school when she was 16. As of 2025, she worked as a substitute for the summer, and at the beginning of the 2025-26 school year she started as an assistant teacher. 

Kamille grew up with a love of reading, writing, music, and art in general. When she’s not at work she can usually be found either at a concert, dying her hair, spending time with friends, or attending fan conventions for her favorite shows and movies. She’s a huge believer in encouraging freedom of self expression- whether that be through blue hair and tattoos, or nerding out with the kids over superheroes- she loves encouraging the kids interests and curiosities. 

If you ask the kids, they’ll probably tell you that she makes the best slime and play dough. In the classroom she can usually be found in the arts and crafts area guiding the kids in sensory based activities- usually making slime, play-dough, or different age appropriate science experiments. She encourages them to observe what they see and feel, what ingredients cause what reaction/outcome, what colors different combinations make, and for them to be as creative as they can be in general.
