Our Transitional Kindergarten Classroom Teachers & Staff
Ms. Vanessa D'Alessandro
Hi, I’m Ms. Vanessa!
Child care experience: At the beginning of my career I worked with young children as a paraprofessional and then as an ABA. From there I moved into a position as a Special Education co-teacher in an Elementary School, and eventually began picking up additional hours at Primrose North Shore! I loved the environment at Primrose North Shore so much that I left my other position and began working here full-time.
My favorite thing about working with children: The bonds you get to create with your students, and being a part of their growth and learning!
Favorite children’s book: “Corduroy”
In my personal time: In my down time I like to hang out with my dogs, cook, and do yoga!
What I’m most excited about this school year: Getting to know all the families and students, and making the school year as amazing as it can be in our new Transitional Kindergarten Program!
