Meet the CCNI Staff

Sharon Rasmussen
Executive Director
Sharon has been with CCNI since the very beginning, when the organization was formed in 1984. Married and with five sons, Sharon says, "Because I was a child care provider myself from 1975 to 1981, I understand and empathize with providers and their daily challenge of offering excellent care and service to their families. Because of this background, I understand how important it is to offer a program which serves and supports family child care and which also benefits providers, families, and children. Since those first years in 1984, we have developed our program and welcome continued growth."

Diane Healy
Associate Director
Married and with three children, Diane maintains our program's accounting, keeps the books in balance, and supervises payroll. Diane has also been with CCNI since 1984. That longevity and commitment pay off in her abilities with CCNI.
