Hello, my name is Myllene. I come from a family of eight children, and as the firstborn, I developed strong caregiving skills from an early age by helping care for my younger siblings. This experience was not out of obligation, but from a genuine passion for supporting and nurturing others. Over the years, my love for working with children has continued to grow. I enjoy creating a safe, caring, and engaging environment where children feel comfortable and supported. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each child’s individual needs.
