My name is Yanae. I’m 26 years old and currently work as a preschool teacher.

I’m passionate about working with children and supporting the development of both students and fellow educators. I have my degree in psychology and I am CPR certified. I also have experience working with a variety of age groups, including infants, toddlers, and preschoolers.
