Owner's Story

Our family has built its life around being present for one another, staying connected to our community, and helping children discover new ways to learn, create, and experience the world around them. We believe children thrive when they are surrounded by people who recognize their individuality, nurture their natural curiosity, and give them the confidence to explore.

When we’re not at school, you’ll usually find us cheering from the sidelines at our children’s sporting events, exploring somewhere new, working on a home project, spending time with family and friends, or enjoying life with our sweet pup. Some of life’s greatest lessons happen in those everyday moments of curiosity, connection, laughter, and shared experience—and those same values are woven into the culture of our school.

After years in the corporate world, we chose to build something deeply personal: a place where we could make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families every day. Owning Ivybrook Academy is not simply a career for us. It is a family commitment, a responsibility we take to heart, and an incredible honor.

We are grateful to partner with families during such an important season of childhood and proud to call Midlothian home. Thank you for considering Ivybrook Academy as part of your family’s story.

We can’t wait to welcome you into ours.
