CCP Teachers
Our teaching team is the heart of CCP - working directly with children and families every day, this team is busy creating curriculum, inspiring a love of learning, supporting homework, connecting with families, and increasing the quality of our programs.
Our teaching team is required to have an Associate Teacher Permit from California Credentialing, and all teachers continue coursework until they have at least 24 Child Development units. Many members of our teaching team hold a Master Teacher- or Site Supervisor-level permit. Additionally, all of our permanent teaching staff are First Aid/CPR certified.
You can get to know about them by clicking on the links below for each individual site!

Floater Teacher: Lavonne Mirabile
Hi, I am Teacher Lavonne. I have had the opportunity to be a Floater Teacher here for CCP since I began in October 2024. I am able to go from site to site- Half Moon Bay, El Granada and Montara in School Age or Preschool programs to support the teachers. I have a Master teacher\Site Supervisor Permit. I have taken classes and workshops pertaining to Early Childhood Education. I am very passionate about working with children. I incorporate science, language, yoga and feel strongly about kindness and communication. I started my career here on the coast at Wilkinson Early Childhood Center before they moved to current location and Half Moon Bay Children's Center then after that I moved to Palcare in Burlingame. Now I am blessed to be back here on the coast where I live and to be part of my community!

Floater Teacher: Pamm Higgins
Hi, I am Teacher Pamm. I joined Coastside Children’s Programs in 2025 with the hope of learning from its experienced teachers while I pursue a certificate in early childhood education at Skyline College. I am grateful for the chance to give back some of the warm support that I received from Coastside educators throughout my own now-grown sons’ childhoods. Getting to know families at all three of the CCP sites is a bonus. Earlier in my life, I worked as a journalist and a nonprofit leader who focused on telling stories about the impact of national issues on people’s lives. Reading history, walking our incredible coastal trails, and growing flowers also keep me happy.

Teacher Professional Development:
Our staff is hard at work preparing for the new school year at our Early Learning Math Workshop. Preparing our Teachers to incorporate math into all aspects of the curriculum. Thanks to a Half Moon Bay Rotary Grant we are able to provide professional development to our teachers on providing math opportunities in both preschool and after school programs at CCP.
