Aileen started at Little Oak in August 2024 and we are so excited for her to join our team in the two-year-old classroom. She is currently working towards her Associate of Arts degree in Child Development from Evergreen College and brings with her a passion for early childhood education. At Little Oak, she enjoys engaging the children in art projects and outdoor play, her two favorite activities. For her, the most rewarding aspect of teaching is the opportunity to help children grow, learn, and develop. She values meaningful conversations she has with both the children and their parents. When Aileen isn’t in the classroom she loves to shop, relax, and spend time with friends and family. If she were to live anywhere else in the world, it would be Mexico.
