Erica Coronado
Director
Hello everyone! My name is Erica Coronado, Director of The Children’s Center of Austin – Northwest. I have had the honor of being a part of The Children’s Center of Austin since 2011. My dream has always been to become a Director and I am beyond thrilled to be one here at CCOA – Northwest! Early childhood development has always been a passion of mine.
Together with a team of amazing staff, I am committed to providing your family with a loving foundation for a lifetime of learning. In 2011, I graduated from Texas State University with a Bachelor of Science in Family and Consumer Sciences and a major in Family and Child Development. After college, I was hired by The Children’s Center of Austin–Westlake, where I served as a teacher and then became a Curriculum Coordinator.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family! My daughter, Maizie is my biggest joy! She has grown leaps and bounds at The Children’s Center of Austin and it is a privilege to watch her grow in our wonderful program.
I highly encourage you all to check out our facility! We would love to have you join our CCOA family.
Jessica Henderson
Curriculum Coordinator
Hi everyone! I’m Jessica, and I am honored to serve as the Curriculum Coordinator at The Children’s Center of Austin-Northwest. I am originally from La Grange, Texas where I graduated high school in 2005. That Summer, I worked my first job as a preschool teacher and fell in love. Teaching children that learning was fun became my passion. I moved to Austin in 2006 to get my certificate in medical assisting in hopes of being an EKG technician, but in my heart, I truly missed working with children. When my daughter, Keona, was born I began teaching at The Children’s Center of Austin. 10 years and 3 daughters later, I am proud to say CCOA is more than a job but is a family.
Having spent many years in a classroom, I understand the impact that a well-crafted curriculum can have on students. Education should be inspiring, engaging, and tailored to meet the diverse needs of learners. Through collaboration with our talented leadership team, I strive to create learning experiences that empower children to reach their full potential.
Beyond my professional life, I enjoy hiking, crafting, swimming, and spending time with my 3 beautiful daughters and my American bully, Loki.
My grandmother would always tell me, “It takes a village to raise a child” and here at CCOA we want to be a part of your village.
