Meet the Staff

Reneca Benn

Founder & CEO

Hello, I'm Reneca, the founder of New Age Scholars (NAS). With a deep passion for childcare, I established NAS to provide a nurturing environment where children can thrive. With almost two decades of experience in the field, I'm committed to fostering growth and development in every child. I prioritize open communication with parents to ensure each child's unique needs are met. Beyond our program, I'm dedicated to supporting our community, including hosting our annual Black History Month fundraiser to celebrate diversity and culture. New Age Scholars isn't just a childcare program—it's a place where families grow, and children flourish under my heartfelt care.

Korey Allen

Teacher Assistant

Hello, I'm Korey and I'm honored to join the NAS family. Being the oldest sibling to 3 brothers, and the oldest grandchild of 11, I have always loved being around children. I have a 9 month old daughter who I love greatly and my bond with her helped shaped me into the man I am today. As a new father watching children learn and develop has become very important to me. I'm looking forward to to making a great impact in the lives of the scholars at NAS.
