She began her career at Pacifica assisting in the office and in daycare and was thrilled to join Sarah Hogaboam in the Montessori classroom. Emmelyne loves that children learn at their own pace. One of her favorite areas of the classroom is the Practical Life work. “The children learn many skills while doing things they enjoy, such as slicing cheese, pouring water, washing windows, and embroidery.” She also enjoys arts and crafts and incorporates them into the classroom and playground activities.
