A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Maitia Branch and I’m from Philadelphia, PA. I’ve worked in school settings for a few years now, where I’ve supported students, families, and teachers with everything from organizing records to helping keep daily routines running smoothly. That experience really strengthened my communication and organizational skills, but more importantly, it reminded me how much I enjoy being around children and helping them grow.
I’d describe myself as caring, dependable, and very hands-on. I love creating a calm, positive environment where kids can learn, play, and feel supported. Families can count on me to be responsible, patient, and genuinely invested in their child’s well-being.
