Our Directors

Kari Ducali - Director

Hello! My name is Kari Ducali and I am the Center Director at Old City Academy! I have been in Early Childhood Education since 2015, when I started as a sub in a 2 year old classroom. Since then I have only continued to grow the passion I have for caring for the next generation of kids! I am a very blessed mom to 5 great kids! Three boys and two girls! My oldest is a senior in high school this year and my youngest is 1. I love spending time with my family traveling and making memories. In my spare time I love to read and travel the world learning about different cultures.

Ms. Lee - Assistant Director

My name is Ms. Lee and I am the Assistant Director at Old City Academy. I have been an early childhood educator here for 40 years. I have had the pleasure of caring for kids and now get to help care for their kids and grandkids! In my free time I love boating, hiking and spending time with family. One of my favorite things to do is watching the sun set with a nice cold drink in my hand and some great company.

I have been working at Brandts now Old City Academy for 6 years now. The family atmosphere and the love for my kids really keeps me going. I enjoy the new activities like parents night out and our recent community activities that we’ve been doing to give the public a chance to see our new changes. Working alongside Mrs. Kari and Mrs. Lee is very inspirational with the years they have put into the daycare system and gives me a chance on what to look for in the future. Old City Academy is definitely my second family with being out in public and seeing my kids call my name and try to go home with me it puts the biggest smile on my face knowing Im apart of their village.

Ms. Sandra is a great assest to this establishment. She's very patient and kind to everyone from parents to their kids you can always count on seeing her smiling face every morning and afternoon. It's such a joy to know that our community kids are in such great hands with her being there. She's highly recommended on knowing everyone's kids are safe and well taken care of! Parents night out is such a great idea and I'm glad she is someone I know and trust to give parents an opportunity to have some personal time and watch the kids after hours. You rock Ms Sandra!!!

I cannot say enough good things about Brandts. My son started a couple of months ago after being at home exclusively with family for almost 2 years. It was a tough transition for him as well as Mommy and Daddy. The staff at Brandts was so patient and wonderful with him, making sure that he felt safe and loved. His teachers Ms. Molli and Ms. Nanette are wonderful and he is learning so much especially with speech. Ms. Lee is always there in the morning with a smile making it easier to drop him off for breakfast and Ms. Sandra always has a smile for him at the end of the day. Its only been a few months but we're already seeing our bright but shy little boy come out of his shell and excel.
