About Ilanis

My name is Ilanis, and I have over 5 years of experience working with children through the Department of Education. I started as a paraprofessional in October 2021 and, in 2022, became a group leader for an after-school program. I've had the privilege of working with kids of all age from preschoolers to high school students and with children who have a wide range of abilities, including those with autism, Down syndrome, and general education students. I love working with children because every day brings something new. Even while they're in school learning, I feel like I'm learning from them too. Working with different personalities and abilities has helped me grow both personally and professionally. It's a great feeling to support children in their own way and watch them make progress, no matter how big or small. I'm looking for a position where I can make a positive impact and continue helping children learn and grow.
