Hello, 

My name is Shelby Emmerson, and I’m so excited to be part of your child’s early learning journey! 

I was born and raised here in Washington State and earned my bachelor’s degree in social sciences with a minor in Sociology from Eastern Washington University. I bring over 10 years of experience in early childhood education, program leadership, and family engagement.

I believe early childhood education is a holistic experience where play, learning, and development are all connected. My goal is to create a nurturing environment where children can grow, explore, and thrive while building strong partnerships with families.

Outside of work, I love spending time outdoors, reading, baking, as well as making memories with family, friends, and loved ones. At home, I share life with my two cats and my significant other, who always keep things fun. I look forward to getting to know you and your little ones, and I’m honored to support your family during these important early years.
