Mixed Age Mondays

Hi! My name is Hannah Lee and I have been teaching for 7 years now. I live here in Albert Lea with my husband, dog, and my daughter. My favorite thing about ECFE is meeting new families and watching the kids grow. I cant wait to meet you all! 

Beth Olchefske and her family have called Albert Lea home for more than 25 years. She has raised five children in the community, including four Albert Lea graduates, giving Beth a strong personal connection to the families and community she now serves through ECFE.

Beth brings more than 30 years of experience working with children and families. She is a Licensed Psychologist and has spent the past 17 years in private practice, along with many years supporting early childhood programs as a Mental Health Consultant.

She is endorsed as an Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health Specialist and as an Endorsed Reflective Supervisor through the Minnesota Association for Children’s Mental Health. Beth also teaches Circle of Security and, alongside her daughter, Mental Health First Aid.

As a Parent Educator, Beth is excited to welcome families into ECFE, build connections, and support parents and caregivers through all the joys, questions, and challenges that come with raising young children.
