A little bit about me

Hey! My name is Ana-Marina and I am a Preschool Teacher’s Assistant.

Almost my whole life, I have taken care of my younger siblings, causing me to want to pursue a career where I got to continue to help these young minds grow. Although I am loving every minute of helping with their journey, I wanted to also do the same with other children. I am very lucky to work in a setting where I am able to positively impact the youth of today, as they will be the ones responsible for our future.

Currently, I am a Montessori teacher in St. Pete and enjoy helping the little ones foster their own independence and personhood. I hope I get to share some of the beauty this method has to offer with your family. Thank you for your trust and consideration
