Truks N Trykes
Leadership Team

Misty Cotton
As former educators in the private and public schools in Minnesota, Jeremy and Misty found the transition into childcare an easy one. In 2007 they packed up their family from the Twin Cities area and headed to South Dakota to help serve the Sioux falls community’s need for Childcare. In 2010 they opened their first center, Truks-N-Trykes 2. After meeting some amazing people along the way, they decided to invite them into join the TNT family.

Bri McCarty
Bri fell into childcare in a round about way. After taking a break from the corporate world, she took an assistant director position with TNT2 and she fell in love with helping raise amazing children. With a Master’s in business, she was searching for a way to grow her career while staying part of the Truks-N-Trykes Brand. That is when NurseryCare was born. After planning and completing the concept, she knew that she needed help to grow the center into the perfect option for families and that is when her husband, Drew, joined the team.

Melissa Anderson
After graduating from Augustana University, Melissa accrued over ten years of experience growing her passion and dedication to early childhood education. Melissa has been part of the TNT team serving families since May 2017. In early 2020 the Anderson’s bought the PlayCare location where Melissa was the director and in late 2021 opened TNT @ Golden Gateway. Melissa, her husband Barry, and their son, Mason, live in the Sioux Falls community and can’t imagine life anywhere else!
