Dear Future Bug,
       The entire staff at Tumble Bugs is dedicated to creating a positive, loving, fun & educational learning environment. We ensure that the first preschool experience, for both child and parent, is a successful one. By maintaining small student/teacher ratios, our expert staff is able to give personalized, and quality attention to each child. It is my mission that all of our students are prepared and have a good basis for starting elementary school.
Sincerely, Tricia Guertel Owner
Debbie Bonomo / Director
Tuesday/Thursday Teacher & Monday/Wednesday Toddler Teacher
  • Graduate from Wake Tech in Early Childhood Development
  • 9 combined years director of Tumble Bugs & Apple Tree Day Care
  • 7 years lead teacher at Thomas Ann Nursery School, NC
  • 20 years of infant & child CPR / First Aid

Debbie moved to Texas because her family needed her; this family business wasn't complete without her. When it comes to raising children, there's not much Debbie doesn't know. She is second mom to many children. Parents still call long distance to get her advice on situations handled at home and in daycare facilities. Her many years of hands-on experience make her knowledgeable beyond her years. The children love, relate, & respect her upon first meeting.
