Erica Aguilar (Miss Erica)

Date of hire: September 2021

My favorite children's book/story:

Brown, Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See? by Bill Martin Jr./Eric Carle
The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle
The Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett

Fun facts about me:

I worked as a Nanny for one family for 10+ years (I am fortunate enough to still get to support that wonderful family.) Before that I was with another wonderful family for 5 years. Working here at the Children's Center has made me so happy!

What do you love the most about teaching/working with little ones?

The precious children have such fantastic imaginations. I like to hear about their new inventions and see what fun games they create. I think I learn as much from them as they learn from me. I also really enjoy reading books to the children, dancing with the little ones and participating in creative play.

From your perspective, what makes the Children's Center so special?

The staff at the Childrens Center are all so nice and friendly. Everyone is so attentive to each other's needs. It really feels like a family.
