  • Title: Assistant: Toddler Classroom
  • Toddler Staff: Toddler Staff

Anna Bakker-Japhet serves as the assistant teacher in the toddler classroom, bringing her skills and warmth to the CMS community. She and her family became part of the CMS community in 2022, when they relocated to Charleston, WV, and were seeking a school for their child.

Originally from Olympia, WA, Anna pursued her college education at The Evergreen State College, where she earned a Liberal Arts Degree with a focus on Business and Finance. Before taking on the role of a teacher's assistant in the Chicks classroom, Anna enjoyed a successful career as a professional baker.

In her leisure time, Anna finds joy in family moments, immersing herself in books, and cultivating a garden—a reflection of her love for both learning and nurturing.
