CORGIVILLE FAIR NURSERY
Corgiville Fair Nursery is located in the lower level of The Dahlhouse and nurtures the youngest learners at Kids Express Learning Center. Up to eight children, six weeks to a year old, attend the nursery each day. Two teachers are devoted to the children's care, with a third teacher sharing time between the nursery and the adjoining toddler room.
The children enjoy daily stroller rides around the eight-acre campus, time on the Infant/Toddler playground, and plenty of floor time and cuddle time with their teachers. When weather restricts outdoor activities, the children enjoy a change of venue in Little Engine That Could; our smaller of two gyms, where the children have extra space for playing with large toys. Twice weekly, the children enjoy attending our Bucky Beats percussion music class.
Parents and teachers work together to develop individual sleeping, eating, and playtime plans for each baby, and teachers inform parents of the child's daily experiences, including nap, feeding, and diapering details. The nursery environment is rich with milestone moments, abundant enthusiasm, and genuine affection.
MR MATT
PRESIDENT/OWNER
Mr. Matt is Hickory Hill Academy's President and Owner. Being a member of the Dahl family, Matt has been involved with Hickory Hill Academy since the school opened in 1996. After graduating from UW-Madison in 2006, he joined HHA as a full-time employee becoming HHA's physical education teacher and working in the after school program. He then transitioned to the administrative side of HHA, handling family accounts, marketing the school and managing finances. In 2020, Matt became HHA's President and Owner, making him a second generation Dahl family business owner.
Matt's father reminds him that running this family business is a "labor of love," and in this sentiment, father and son could not agree more. Matt enjoys working with his family to make HHA a successful organization while focusing on the school's greater purpose - "cultivating compassionate leaders". It is the fulfillment of this latter goal which makes Matt's job most rewarding.
In 2009, Matt married his wonderful wife, Jenny. The ceremony was at Blackhawk Church, and the reception was at Nakoma Country Club – both fitting venues as they relate to some of Matt's greatest interests. Jenny and Matt have been going to Blackhawk Church for years, and is an avid golfer. He loves everything about the game of golf -- the competition, the outdoors, and the apparel! Matt and Jenny have three beautiful children: Zachary, Kailey, and Landon.
