Elaine McCloud is the owner/director of FLIP CCLC and the mother of five children. She begun operating her first daycare facility in 2004 with the help of her sister. She soon learned that there was more to running a daycare business than caring for kids, so she went to college to earn an Associates Degree in Business Administration. She then went back to school to earn her Bachelors in Early Childhood Education/Children and Family all while running her family daycare center. As a result of the partnership with Head Start, Ms. McCloud has numerous certificates associated with child development as well as a CPR/First Aide Trainer.
