A little bit about me

I am Brishai, I am on a new journey of finding a new nanny position. I have 9 years of child care experience working as a nanny and preschool teacher. I have a genuine passion for young children and helping them learn and reach milestones. I believe children learn through play and being around what is developmentally appropriate for them. I developed this philosophy while studying early childhood education while earning my AA degree in child development. I’ve worked with children from ages birth to six years old. I have an extensive history working with infants and toddlers. My role as a child care provider is to ensure proper safety of children(s), teach age-appropriate lessons , engage in playtime, maintain a clean environment, and create a positive atmosphere for children to learn and grow. When providing childcare to children, I love to teach children about our earth, educational activities, express themselves through paint and art, mannerism and to be polite.
