Noelle Dimke

Green Room Teacher

Hi! My name is Mrs. Noelle Dimke, I am 22 years old. I live in New Ulm with my husband Alex, who is in his fourth year at Martin Luther College. We enjoy playing board games and watching movies with family and friends.

In May 2020, I graduated from Martin Luther College with a bachelors in Science in Early Childhood Education, birth to age 8.

My commitment to JLMLC families is to provide quality care by showing love and understanding in every situation. To the best of my ability, I will use Early Childhood Developmental theories in how I tech and help children problem solve. All of this, I do, to reflect the love that God has shown me.

Kim Youngerberg

Assistant Director, Blue Room Teacher

My husband, Todd and I have been married for 28 years. We live on a farm between St. Clair and Janesville. We have 3 grown children, Lucas, Brooklyn, and Emilyn. We now have bees, fish, chickens, and guinea hens. I received my teaching degree from Mankato State University and have been teaching for 27 years. The last 17 years have been specifically preschool age.

Every day I am blessed by the children and families I serve here at Jesus Loves Me. I strive to find the activities, stories and adventures that will impact them socially, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I love to see the changes and learning taking place for them each day, week, month and over the years we are here together.

Sadie Ronholt

Red Room Teacher

My name is Sadie Ronholt. I graduated from Martin Luther College this May with a degree in Early Childhood Education. I live in New Ulm with my husband, Andrew, who will be a senior at MLC this year. Even though I am the youngest of three, I always had my nieces and nephews running around our small farm in Nebraska. I learned everything about managing children from them, ha! I love spending time outside, traveling, and reading.

I am passionate about play-based learning and creating authentic experiences for your children. You will see your children bringing home projects and art that are completely unique and dreamt up by them. You will see them using coping skills that we practice in class. Most importantly, you will see them become more independent and confident as they explore the world around them. My prayer is that we can all grow together in God’s word, social skills, and academically.
