St Mark Preschool Director

Ana Schmid

About Me 

I have served as St. Mark Preschool’s Director for the past three years after relocating to Santa Barbara from Los Angeles. In LA, I served as the director of a preschool for four years, having taught preschool for 8 years prior to moving into leadership. Through the role as director, I was able to deepen my knowledge of child development across all developmental domains and to integrate strategies from a range of disciplines. 

​
I am passionate about creating warm, nurturing learning environments for children and families that uphold the highest standards of care. I currently serve as an adjunct professor at Concordia University, Irvine.

My husband, and two children, (ages  10 and 12) and I love going to the beach, hiking, listening to music & attending concerts. I love singing in a band, and music has been a big part of my early childhood education career pathway.
