Program Director

Annette Todd

I was born and raised in Macon, MS. I graduated high school in 1981 and moved to Sacramento, CA shortly after graduation. I attended California State University in Sacramento, where I worked in their childcare center and graduated in 1987 with a degree in Liberal Studies.

I moved to Seattle, WA after graduation and began working at Mother’s Place the same summer. I remained on staff for almost 35 years. In 1995, I married Carliss Todd, and we have raised three children, including one daughter, our adopted niece, and nephew.

I have a great love for children and their development.
