Alissa Pereira
Position: English Infant/Toddler Lead Teacher
About: My name is Alissa “Allie” Pereira. I was born in Jersey City and moved with my family at the age of 10 to South Plainfield, which is where I still live and am raising my daughter. After graduating high school I attended Union County College and The Muhlenberg School of Nursing. I became a stay at home mom and cared for my daughter after she was born, but went back to work in the field of education in 2014. My education experience started at Little Treasures Learning Center where I was a teacher’s assistant. I quickly learned that I loved working with children and decided to obtain my CDA in Early Education. After receiving my CDA in 2019, I was promoted to a Lead Infant/Toddler Teacher which is the age group I have been working with ever since! When I am not teaching I enjoy being outside, hiking and spending time with my daughter.
