Tina Dello Russo

Tina Dello Russo

School Director

I started working with kids in public school 10 years ago and have held roles from Teacher up to Director with Cadence. I have worked with three of our schools and enjoy creating a community and watching as the children reach new goals. In my free time, I enjoy reading, painting and cooking and baking.

Sharon Fayette

Program Manager

I started as a teacher assistant and moved my way up over the 40 years I’ve been working in early childhood education. I’ve also been an Education/Disability Manager. The best thing is when I walk into a classroom or sit on the floor and the children give me hugs or sing with me.  I have learned from every child, teacher and family and have grown through the experience. In my free time I enjoy doing things with my family or reading.

Victoria Whitten

Teacher of the Year

I started working childhood education in 2017 as a TA. This past year I was able to get my Teacher’s certificate. I am currently enrolled in classes to be a lead teacher. I love providing positive guidance as well as offering a safe environment where children are able to gain knowledge and grow at their own pace. When I am not at the school, I enjoy spending time with my family, riding on the back of my husband’s motorcycle, gardening and lots of self care. I am excited to learn as much as I can through both my co-workers and children.

My daughter has been in Cadence for the past 2 years and we've been very happy with the level of care, education and open communication. Every teacher and member of staff is always very pleasant at drop off and pick up. Director Tina and her teachers Miss Tori and Miss Kiley have been great, always open to answer all of my questions and always welcomed my feedback. I am grateful we've been fortunate enough to have them care for her, teach and love her.

Cadence Academy has been a great fit for our family since we started daycare when our son was 6 months old. The staff members are kind, thoughtful and truly care about the kids and families. The facility is very clean and well stocked with supplies for infants and toys to support their milestones. We have seen such strides in his development and you can tell when we pull into the parking lot, he is excited to be there!
