Hi! My name is Brenda, and I have over five years of experience working with children of all ages in both preschool and childcare settings. I have completed 12 Early Childhood Education (ECE) units, am CPR certified, and have served as a Lead Teacher, where I planned engaging, age-appropriate activities that supported children's learning, creativity, and development. As a mom to my wonderful 5-year-old daughter, I understand the importance of creating a safe, nurturing, and fun environment where children feel comfortable and cared for. I'm patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy helping children learn, grow, and build confidence through play and hands-on activities. Whether it's arts and crafts, sensory play, outdoor play, reading, or educational games, I love keeping children engaged while encouraging their curiosity and development. I look forward to providing reliable, loving, and trustworthy care for your family.
Brenda was wonderful with our four-year-old daughter! She was so creative and playful—our little immediately warmed up to her. Brenda has a calm, kind presence and balanced being fun while also being thoughtful about safety, hygiene, meals etc. As a mom herself, she clearly has a natural way with kids. I felt completely at ease and was able to truly unplug, knowing my daughter was in great hands. Couldn't recommend her more highly!
