Gaines State Preschool Rm. 2

Hello, my name is Olivia Arias. I have an Associate Degree from Cerritos College in Early Childhood Education and Liberal Arts. In May 2018, I was able to accomplish my goal of obtaining my bachelor’s Degree from Dominguez Hills in Child Development with a concentration in Early Learning Teaching. I have been working with children for the last 13 years and been working in Paramount Unified School District for 5 years. My family is one of the most precious things in my life. I’m married and have 4 children all girls that keep me and my husband occupied with school and extracurricular activities. As a family, we spend time at
the beach, parks and shopping. My favorite color is blue, gray, turquoise, I love shopping at Walmart, Dollar Tree, and 99 Cents Only Stores. I will be looking forward to working with your children this year.
