My name is Daniela Helton and I am the full time School Counselor at Little Bennett!  I was lucky enough to open Little Bennett in 2006 and since it is an AWESOME place I have not left!  I have worked as an elementary School Counselor for 19 years in Montgomery County.  I have a Master of Education in School Counseling from The University of Maryland along with a Post Masters Certificate in Professional Teaching Standards from George Washington University.  I also attended Duquesne University where I received a Bachelors of Science in Education and a Bachelors of Arts in Spanish.  I also have my National Board Certified Teaching Certification in the area of School Counseling.  I am  Latina and speak fluent Spanish.  My goal at Little Bennett is to build positive relationships with students, parents and staff in order to achieve student success.  I encourage you to give me a call at school or make an appointment to stop by if you need support.  My door is always open!  

My name is Nicole "Sonne" Goode and I am the part-time school counselor here at Little Bennett! This is my first year joining the Little Bennett team although I have worked as a School Counselor in MCPS for 4 years. I graduated from Loyola University of Maryland with my Masters of Education in School Counseling. Prior to attending Loyola, I attended UMBC and received my Bachelors in Psychology. I am also a proud MCPS alumni and therapist! 

A fun fact about me is that my first job was working at grandfathers' fruit and vegetable stand! I love to read, spend time outside in the sun and travel with my husband. My passion as a counselor is to encourage students to achieve their goals from a positive mindset. I have dedicated the past twelve years of my life serving children in the community through teaching, coaching, and educating. I am always available for listening, talking, and creating a safe space for my students! I look forward to an awesome year. Go eagles!
