Lindsey is a fifth generation Montanan, born and raised in Billings. Her lifelong dream has always been to be a teacher and she loves working with children. She spent many years counseling at youth camps, teaching Sunday school and volunteering in classrooms. She graduated from The University of Montana Western after studying Early Childhood Education where she met her husband, Chaz Hyland. She began her career as the Lead Teacher at a Canvas Early Learning Center before starting a family. A career change for her husband, Chaz, relocated them in Red Lodge and brought them closer to family.

Lindsey has two boys, Zach (4) and Caleb (2) and two bonus children London (14) and Sayre (12). Lindsey understands the importance of teaching kids about God at a young age. She is passionate about teaching Preschool and Kindergarten age students. She loves being creative in ways which will build their Biblical knowledge and foundation through songs, stories, arts and crafts.   

Lindsey attends Beartooth Mountain Baptist Church with her family. In her spare time, Lindsey enjoys visiting extended family, baking, reading, and spending time outdoors with her husband and her kids.

“I can do all things in Christ who strengthens me.” Phillipians 4:13

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me, and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all of your heart.” Jeremiah 29:11-13

Ashley grew up just outside of Laurel, Montana and attended Laurel schools. Ashley had one older brother, but her home was always filled with friends and cousins. In high school, Ashley worked as a nanny during the summer and earned her CNA license, working after school at a nursing home. After high school, Ashley worked as a Veterinary Technician and then a Medical Assistant. She loved working in the medical field, especially veterinary medicine. Ashley met her husband Raynor when she was 17 years old, and they were married in 2022. God blessed them with their son, Gideon, one year later. “I love being a mother more than anything. I treasure my time just being with my family, especially if it involves fishing or vacation. YCCA has been an answer to my family’s prayers in many ways, and I am incredibly grateful to be a part of something so meaningful”. Ashley is currently serving as YCCA’s Administrative Assistant.
