Our Staff
The staff at Mountainside Learning Center have been carefully selected for their competence, their love of children, and their demonstrated knowledge and practice of their faith. All our staff (including volunteers) have been fingerprinted and have undergone background checks.
Read below to learn a bit more about the people who make Mountainside happen!
Kim - Teacher / Learning Director
Kim has been a member of the Mountainside Community Church for over 25 years and very involved in that span with children’s programs, youth groups and family events. She has had a vision for many years to reach the children in this community with a Christian based care center for children.
Kim and her husband of 36 years, Tim have 3 children and 5 grand dogs. When their children were very young, Kim operated a home daycare for several years. She then went to work for the Elementary School here in Falmouth as kitchen manager and cook for the past 16 years, interacting and connecting with children daily.
Kim’s goal for this program is help each and every child to reach their God-given potential in a warm and loving environment.

Jen joined our Learning Center shortly after we opened, and has taken the lead in the care of our youngest charges. She is an LPN, and a lifelong resident of Maine.
Judy - Volunteer / Teacher Assistant
Judy has been a blessing to Mountainside Learning Center! A resident of Falmouth, she is always willing to help out wherever she is needed.
Linda - Volunteer / Teacher Assistant
Linda is a caring person who has a heart for young children. She also has the gift of being able to organize things, which has been a great help to us!
Shirley - Volunteer / Teacher Assistant
Shirley is a long-time member of Mountainside Church who has graciously donated her spare time to helping out in the Learning Center. Whether it’s making snacks for the kids, or helping them get dressed to go out to the playground, her help has been invaluable!
