Ms. Sarah
Preschool Teacher

Ms. Sarah has been apart of the New Life family since her late teen years and continues to call this place home. Born and raised here on the central coast where she loves to spend time with her amazing husband and fur babies.
Ms. Sarah has always had a true joy and passion for working with little loves and continues to use her God given gifts here at New Life Preschool.
When Ms. Sarah is not at school she is off exploring and enjoying time away with her friends, family and 3 precious god daughters at the most magical place on earth (where she hopes to continue to go on many new Disney adventures in the near future)
Psalm 139:14: I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.
Ms. Carissa
Preschool Teacher

Carissa has lived on the Central Coast her whole life. She has been in the field of early childhood for over 15 years and graduated Cal Poly SLO in 2014 where she received her bachelor’s in Child Development with a minor in Psychology.
Carissa has always loved learning about children and believes the first 5 years of a child’s life are so important. She’s honored to be a part of the child’s life during this stage of development which is why she has continued to work in the field of early education.
When Carissa is not working she enjoys spending time with her husband Jeremy and their two sons, AJ and Andrew. They love spending time with their family, going camping, playing board games with friends and going on adventures together as a family! She enjoys calligraphy and binge watching murder mystery shows as well.
Carissa’s favorite verse is Gal 5:22-23
“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”
