“The Little Govs Child Learning Center has provided me and my student experience at Austin Peay with a family closer than I could’ve ever imagined, especially from a workplace. Everyone, from the director, Claudia Rodriguez, to the staff, to my fellow student workers, and down to every individual child, has become a part of my life, which I will hold near and dear to my heart forever. The people at the Little Govs CLC are genuine and kind, and all have everyone’s best interest at heart. Had I not spent the last two years at the Little Govs CLC, my time at Austin Peay would not be what it has been.”
