My name is Rebecca Wellnitz, and I have had the privilege of watching Creative Learning Center (CLC) grow and thrive since my high school years. Over the years, I have seen my mom’s journey as a teacher, school owner, and dedicated director, and it has been inspiring to watch CLC blossom into the wonderful community it is today.
My passion for working with children began at a young age through babysitting, nannying, working in daycare settings, and assisting at CLC during my college summers. I graduated from Washington State University with a bachelor’s degree in Sociology and also studied Interior Design for nearly three years.
Professionally, I spent 10 years working in the nonprofit sector, helping families through foreclosure prevention programs. Throughout my career, I have also held a variety of childcare, nannying, and school-related positions, which have strengthened my love for supporting children and families.
I live with my husband and our two Golden Retrievers. In my free time, I enjoy Pacific Northwest hiking, running, exploring local coffee shops, photography, spending time with my 6-year-old niece, and, of course, spoiling my dogs. I am excited to be part of the CLC community and look forward to helping children learn, grow, and love school.
