Anne Leetch, affectionately known as "Miss Anne," is the Playgroup Leader for the "Playgroups in the Park" summer program every Monday and Wednesday morning. During the school year she runs 6 playgroups a week, as well as age-specific playgroups. She has been working with the Medford Family Center for 10 years, and came on board with Marie. They have known each other for 20 years, and met while volunteering with a Child Assault Prevention Program. Anne loves children and has been working with them since she was very young, from Babysitting to Girl Scouts to the Child Assault Prevention program, and now the Medford Family Center.

With four children of her own, one a special needs child, Anne can truly lend a sympathetic ear, and loves to mentor new parents. "I walk out of work every day saying, 'They pay me to do this?'".

As I walk around the playground, parents couldn't say enough about Marie, Anne, and the programs offered by the Medford Family Network.

"The parents come for their children, but they stay for themselves"
