My name is Casamia Parker, and I serve as the Head of the Nursery at First United Methodist Church. I was raised in the Christian faith, surrounded by a community that taught me the importance of kindness, hospitality, and genuine care for every child. Those early experiences instilled in me a deep belief that each child is a precious gift from God and deserves to be treated with love, respect, and patience.
Caring for children has always been more than a job for me—it is my calling. I feel truly blessed to create a safe, nurturing, and joyful space where our youngest disciples can grow, explore, and experience God’s love in tangible ways. Whether I’m rocking a baby to sleep, calming a toddler’s worries, or celebrating a little one’s milestones, I adore the work I get to do each day.
I am grateful to partner with families and the entire FUMC community in building a foundation of faith, safety, and compassion for every child who comes through our doors.
