A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Brina, and I’m a student at the University of Colorado Boulder. I’m responsible, dependable, and love spending time with kids. I enjoy building genuine connections with children and creating a fun, positive environment where they feel comfortable, supported, and safe.

I’m very active and love getting outside, going on adventures, doing crafts, playing games, reading, and helping with homework when needed. I believe childcare is about more than just supervision—it's about keeping kids engaged, encouraging creativity, and making sure they have fun while parents have peace of mind.

Families would describe me as patient, trustworthy, organized, and easy to communicate with. I understand how important it is to find someone you can rely on, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m excited to help families by providing attentive, reliable care and being a positive role model for their children.

A little bit about me

I am a Montessori educator passionate about supporting each child’s unique development through individualized lessons, hands-on learning, and meaningful experiences based on their interests, personality, and developmental stage. My approach is also inspired by Ken Wilber’s Integral Theory, which I find to be a powerful way to understand and nurture the whole child. I’m looking for a family who values respectful care, child-led learning, and a collaborative partnership.
