Dawn Payne
Director
Dawn has worked in Early Childhood Education for 20 years in every capacity, from preschool teacher to director. She and her husband share six children and a granddaughter. Watching children learn and families grow is her passion! As a working mom, she knows the challenges of work/life balance and appreciates how difficult it can be to fulfill multiple roles on a day-to-day basis. As an educational leader, Dawn has a strong desire to not only empower children with the confidence they need to succeed, but to also encourage parents as they navigate the crucial early years of development.
