Meet Our Assistant Director
Hi, families! My name is Emma Penn, and I’m the Assistant Director at Scribbles Center for Learning! I’ve been part of the Scribbles family for about 7 years, and my passion for early childhood education comes from creating meaningful learning opportunities and seeing the excitement on children’s faces when they master a new skill. I love learning alongside them and seeing firsthand how important early education and learning through play are.
When families walk through our doors, I want them to feel welcomed, supported, and at home, just as I do when my own child attends Scribbles. This community has supported me through both my teaching journey and motherhood, making Scribbles truly feel like my second family!
