• Ms Arlena

  My name is Ms. Arlena, and I'm so excited to be apart of your child's early childhood education journey. I have been in the early education field for almost 8 years and it's truly my passion. I began my career as a floater and quickly advanced to a Toddler Teacher. From there, I moved into Preschool and Pre-K where I had the opportunity to train and mentor new teachers. As I gained more experience, I began training under my former Directors as an Office Assistant, expanding my skills in admin and leadership. After getting married, I took a meaningful two year break to focus on my family and son. When Goddard opened here in NW LV, it was the perfect next step. My son is now a student here and is thriving. He loves coming to school every day. I have joined the team as the Floor Manager, and I truly enjoy working alongside our amazing teachers, students, and leadership team. I look forward to helping create a positive, nurturing experience for your family here at Goddard!
