About

Serving military and other professional families, the facility became the premier five-star rated child care center in the Southern Pines area.

In 2018 Sharyn decided it was time for her next journey. She sold the facility to the director, Gabriela Olufs. Cyber Ed became Southern Pines Academy.

Keeping with the same values and tradition, Gaby runs the facility as a family-run business with the help of her husband, Ryan Olufs.

Southern Pines Academy continues to be a landmark for the community and the premier child care facility in the Southern Pines area.
