Our educational environment focuses on nurturing the whole child. Our goal is to help your child grow physically, socially, emotional and cognitively while in our care. We meet every child where they are and support their progression towards appropriate benchmarks. We utilize the Creative Curriculum system in conjunction with Teaching Strategies Gold and Ages and Stages questionnaires for assessment and screening purposes.
We believe that parents are our partner in their child’s growth and development. To keep parents involved in their child’s day, we utilize Child Care Seer. This program allows parents and approved family members a way to communicate with staff, view attendance, daily sheets, and progress reports. We are able to share pictures and videos of what is going on in the classroom with you throughout the day to make parents feel like they are an active part of their child’s day. This easy to use system is also how we manage billing and payments. Downtown Dayton, Trotwood, Clayton, Jefferson Township and Englewood are all minutes from our Victorum Learning Center locations!

Meet some of our loving staff
Our Early Learning Centers invest in our educators, who often earn specific age-appropriate Internationally-Recognized Credentials, complete hundreds of hours of professional development, and mentor each other. Our Educators are friendly, caring, and experienced to take on the challenge of assisting your child with their care and development throughout the day.
I graduated from Chaminade-Julienne Catholic High School and have been working in childcare for six years. I enjoy reading and building LEGO sets in my free time. Victorum has an amazing work environment and I enjoy seeing the changes in my kids’ development every day!
I went to school in West Virginia and graduated from Cabell High School in 1988. I took a childcare class which would equip me to operate a daycare, but I didn’t finish the course. Periodically, I’ve worked with kids through daycare, church and with my nieces and nephews. I like working for Victorum and the kids are our future. I enjoy working with them.
I went to CJ high school. I would say one thing I like about working at Victotrum is the energy the kids bring. I’m excited to start at Central State this year!
I am a native Daytonian who has been in the education industry for 18 years. I hold degrees from Sinclair Community College, Wilberforce University, and the Forbes School of Business.
What I enjoy most about working with Victorum Learning Center is the impact I have with families. Whether it is access to high quality care and education or simply connections with local resources, I enjoy helping others.
As the Director of Operations, I also enjoy guiding education professionals in their careers. Whether they are entering the field or joining us as a veteran, supporting professional growth is very satisfying.
I began my career in early childhood education as a preschool teacher over seventeen years ago and have been with Victorum Learning Center since its inception. I work with all four of our locations to create a safe and nurturing educational experience for all of our students. In addition to my Vicotrum family, I also have four daughters that keep me on my toes.
I spent most of my years growing up in the Dayton/Huber Heights area. I have a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education from Wright State University and a masters degree in literacy from the University of Dayton. Overall, I have 12 years of experience in the childcare and education field.
I joined Victorum in October of 2022 and in my role I help with implementation of best practices, creating monthly newsletters to keep parents informed of what is going on in the centers, and many other administrative tasks to help keep our centers running smoothly. I enjoy seeing what’s going on in each of our learning centers and being able to offer parents a window into what their child is doing while they spend their day with our excellent teachers.
