Framingham Staff
My name is Hayley Dyer. I am married with four kids. I have two boys and two girls. I have my Bachelor Degree in Psychology and Minor in Early Childhood. I have been working at Mountainside for 15 years. In my early years at Mountainside worked in the Infant, Toddler and Preschool program. I slowly increased my responsibility by becoming the Infant Supervisor and checking every programs curriculum. On top of supervising Infants, I became the Toddler Supervisor for a few years. Eventually, I became the Assistant Director. Now I am the Director of the Framingham center! I have enjoyed learning so much and I am excited to continue to learn more. I really love working with young children and I enjoy seeing them learn through play, art, sensory, singing and reading. I strive on supporting my staff and helping them with daily routines such as cleaning, helping the children and weekly curriculum. I am passionate about clearly communicating with the parents and getting to know each family individually. Also I want to help the families and their child grow and learn successfully through their time at Mountainside.
I am Miss Alicia, I grew up in the small town of Sherborn and graduated from Dover- Sherborn High School. After graduating I went to Dean College for my Associates Degree and Suffolk University where I obtained my Bachelors Degree. My summers were spent as a counselor and lead counselor at the Rivers Day Camp. Soon I realized early childhood education was what I truly enjoyed and where I wanted to be. I have many years of experience as a nanny and as an early education teacher. I have taught children from Infants to Pre-K. In 2017, I joined Mountainside and have been here ever since. I am currently working on my lead and director certification. Over the recent shutdown, I taught toddler and preschool zoom once a week for Mountainside. I love working with children it’s my passion. I’m married and have two boys that also attend Mountainside. My oldest is in Pre-K and youngest is in infants. Helping young children realize their full potential at every juncture is what makes my day at home and at Mountainside.
