Lead Teacher of our "Butterfly" class and on staff for 18 years.  She has seen many children through ECM and loves teaching children to be independent and make choices.  She has a Child Development Associates Credential  and enjoys building relationships with the children and their parents.

Dawn is brand new to the staff of ECM as she becomes the Assistant in the "Butterfly" class.  However, she is not new to ECM.  She has had 3 children in the school, a year of being our PVO President, and has been a substitute for many of those years as well.  We welcome Dawn to the Staff.  She loves the children and they enjoy her as well.

Mrs. Payne has been a part of the ECM staff for 10 years.  She has taught our 4's, Toddlers and is now Lead Teacher of our "Alligator" class.  She loves the children and has them "learning" through every activity available to them.  She also coordinates all our purchasing of supplies and furniture.  Having received a special Director's Credential, she wants to learn the administration side of a preschool as well. Mrs. Payne also has her Child Development Associates Credential.

Mrs. Moreno starts her second year with us after  teaching many years in another preschool.  She left teaching to pursue another field, but missed the children.  She has a wonderful way with the children and enjoys creating a wonderful learning environment for them.  She and Mrs. Payne make a great team. We are glad to have her as a part of the ECM family.

Ms. Simpson comes to us from Georgia.  She moved to South Florida many months ago and we were in contact about any positions at ECM.  None were available at the time of her move, so her application was kept on file.  She is now joining our staff to teach a new class of "older threes."  We are excited about her enthusiasm for teaching and sharing the love of God to the children in her class.  She has many years of experience and will be an asset to the ECM staff.
