About Mariaelena

Experience: 20 yrs

I have worked with children from a young age, babysitting. I decided to get a degree in Child Development and become a Preschool Teacher. I was a stay at home mom for a period of time. During that time, I had an in home day care. I eventually went back to work teaching once my children were all in school. I have 3 daughters, all college age now. One is at UC Davis, one's at Cal State Fullerton and the third is at UCLA. I am a dog owner and have had other pets over the years: a bearded dragon, fish, a tortoise, and guinea pigs. I am certified in First Aid/CPR and am a strong swimmer as well. My preschool teacher background is with children ages 0-5. I've also worked with After-school age. I look forward to meeting you if you find my experience sufficient for the job you are hiring for.
