About Annelise

Working with children has always been something I enjoy. I have been employed atSchools for the past three years as support staff for an after school program. I actively engage with children grades 2nd through 5th and help them with activities related to a S. T. E. A. M model. As of this year I have added on a role of a one-to-one for a 7-year-old with autism spectrum disorder. I engage in activities with him and facilitate participation in group activities. I have worked at Preschool of the Arts in Tolland, CT for about 9 months and engaged with children birth to 5. We are very focused on facilitating play and social interaction into our learning. I am currently a dance teacher during the school year for middle school age students, but have taught as young as 3 in the past. I've had some experience with multiple babysitting jobs and love to engage with the children in play and sensory activities.
