Miss Maria
Teacher's Assistant
I joined refinery preschool in March 2022 as the preschool assistant teacher. I am currently attending Fullerton College to pursue my Early Childhood Education Degree. I have 2 years of experience working with kids and have grown to love being able to engage with them and making learning fun. I’ve always wanted to work with young children since I took child development in high school. Previously I worked at the boys and girls club with all aged kids. On my free time, I love to garden and go fishing. I love animals, I have 6 dogs I’ve fostered and I have 2 lovebirds. I would consider myself passionate in working with kids because it brings me joy watching them grow and become successful independent learners.
