Our Caring Team

Experienced & Compassionate

Sarah Dejerinett

Owner & Head Teacher

As the owner and primary caregiver at Icebreakers Christian Academy, I bring both a passion for early childhood education and a deep commitment to nurturing the whole child. With years of experience in childcare and a background in early childhood education, I view my role not just as a caregiver, but as an educator and guide during the most important years of a child’s development.

In my home daycare, every moment is an opportunity to learn through play, nature, and meaningful connection. I create a warm, safe, and stimulating environment where children feel valued, respected, and free to explore at their own pace.

As an educator, I’m committed to:

Supporting social-emotional growth through positive relationships
Encouraging curiosity and independence through hands-on experiences
Using observation and reflection to meet each child’s unique needs
Building strong partnerships with families for consistent, loving care

My goal is to lay the foundation for a lifetime of confident, joyful learning—starting right here at home.

We're grateful to have Anthony as part of our team, providing consistent, loving support when needed.
