Stella Donati

Stella began her work in Early Childhood as an undergraduate at the University of Wisconsin-Madison where she double majored in Human Development & Family Studies and Psychology with a certificate in Disability Rights and Services. She put her classroom knowledge into practice in various roles at the Child Development Lab, a lab school located on the university’s campus, eventually becoming a student assistant teacher across classrooms ranging from 2-5 years old. Outside the classroom setting, Stella has committed herself to working with children with a variety of backgrounds, abilities, and disabilities by taking on roles in a pediatric hospital unit, Down Syndrome Achievement Center, and most recently, an intensive summer treatment program supporting children with ADHD and related behavior challenges. Stella is passionate about child-centered education based upon best practices to encourage success for children in their earliest school experiences. She is proud to be a part of the Bennett team and is excited to be returning to the PreKindergarten classroom as an Assistant Teacher.
