After School

Who We Are

Larissa Darias

Larissa was born in Miami, Florida and raised by her lovely adopted family up in Pennsylvania. She moved to Vermont in 2015 where she attended Lyndon State College. She graduated with a degree in Visual Communications. She is attending CCV working towards her ECE degree and directors credential. Larissa has experience working with children as a lead preschool teacher in Pennsylvania, an infant teacher in the Mad River Valley and, most recently, a pod teacher and nanny for a group of families in the Valley. She loves snowboarding, mountain biking and all things art! You can find her seeking adventures with her husband, son and their three dogs.

Ruth Davis

(she/her/hers)

​Ruth is very excited to be joining the NOW team! She is new to Vermont, Ruth moved here from Maine in June, and has loved everything this beautiful state has to offer. Previously she worked at a pediatric doctors office as a CNA working with a wide range of children, different ages and background, and that opportunity has given me a lot of vital skills in childcare. Ruth is currently a first year student at CCV studying Early Childhood Education. In her free time she loves to spend it outside any chance she can get, if she is not outside Ruth is most likely cuddling with her cats while crafting up a storm. Another hobby Ruth enjoys and grew up with, something she holds close to her heart, is singing and playing along with her guitar and ukulele. Ruth is truly excited for this opportunity to work with all your beautifully unique children in such a naturalistic atmosphere that nurtures their individuality.

Cedar Souligny

(she/her/hers)

Hello, my name is Cedar Souligny. I was born and raised in Roxbury, Vermont. After high school, I spent some time out west. I attended Prescott College in Prescott, Arizona, where I studied Outdoor Education and Social Justice. Last year, I lived in California with my fiancé before returning to Vermont to begin building our house and farm! I am passionate about working with children and have a variety of experience in the field, from working at outdoor summer camps to serving as a behavioral technician at Star of CA, a national provider of behavioral and psychological services. In my free time, I enjoy studying mycology, painting, and creating mixed media art collages. I also love hiking, rock climbing, backpacking, swimming—basically anything outdoors!

I’m excited to be part of the afterschool team and look forward to contributing my enthusiasm to the NOW community!
