A little bit about me

Hi! Hello, everyone! My name is Nikkisha Premilien, but you can call me Nikki. I graduated with my Bachelor of Science in Health Education in 2019 at the University of Florida. I have many years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants to teenagers. My m.o. consists of using creativity, imagination, learning and exploration to create fun, fostering, and supporting environments for every child. I love to empower children to make their own choices, but I can also be assertive when need be. I have a lot of tutoring experience as well and can assist in subjects from reading to math. I also enjoy music, reading, puzzles and board games, coloring and a range of other fun and interactive activities. My goal is to nurture each child’s individual interests and talents in the best way that I can. I am open-minded and highly respect any culture, tradition, or way of life. In fact, I use any situation that I may not be familiar with as an opportunity to learn and grow.
