Kindergarten Teacher Assistant

I am beyond excited and grateful for the opportunity to be a part of the HHH team. It is an honor to spend time with your beautiful children on this magical land. 

 

I was born in Quito, Ecuador and have treasured memories of running free in my grandfather’s farm, swimming in the warm ocean water, making colada morada in remembrance of our loved ones, and burning paper-mache dolls with my cousins on New Years Eve. 

 

When I was 9 years old, my family and I immigrated to the US, a change that brought many moments of growth and happiness. 

 

I interned and worked at the Children’s Center located on the Cal State Fullerton campus for a couple years. I was inspired by all the children in my care- their free spirit, loving light, and curiosity sparked joy in my heart. This was also a special place for my daughter and I as we spent many long hours there making sweet memories. I graduated in 2013 (five months pregnant with my son) with a Bachelor's Degree in Human Services.

 

Throughout the next few years I took on several part time jobs but motherhood was always my priority. My children are my greatest teachers and I am blessed to walk alongside them everyday.

 

I came across Waldorf Education when my twin nephews started their first year of kindergarten at Journey School. My then 3-year-old daughter and I started volunteering, attended class plays and school-wide events. I soon fell in love and knew this was the educational path I would pursue for our family.
