Chris Hackenberg

Chris came to Sabot in 2006 as a “lunch bunch lady.” During that same year, she was also a long-term substitute in the preschool. She became a regular faculty member in 2007 and taught in the preschool for four years before taking on a leadership role in the Extended Day program, which is now used by more than half of our preschool families. 



Chris earned a degree in business administration from The Pennsylvania State University, and after working in sales and marketing, realized that her heart is with children. After caring for children for over 38 years, she is looking forward to caring for Sabot as the Director of Operations.


Chris, who is also seven times a grandma, experienced six different preschools while raising her five daughters, and she is “100% certain that no where else in Richmond compares to Sabot’s nurturing, loving, respectful way of listening to and being with children.”
