Meet the Director

Hello, my name is Rockeisha Walker, and I am proud to have been born and raised in Plaquemine, LA. I have had the privilege of serving as the director of Bright Star in Plaquemine for the past 13 years. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Child Development and Family Studies from Northeastern University.


My dedication to the development of young children stems from a deep understanding of the critical importance of the first five years in a child's life. These formative years lay the foundation for future success, and it is my passion to ensure every child at Bright Star receives the support and guidance they need to thrive. My commitment to fostering a nurturing and enriching environment for our children remains unwavering, and I am excited to continue making a positive impact on their lives.
