My name is Brittany; I have been working with children/youth for over 10 years. Recently moved from NYC to Charlotte! My experience comes from being a former camp counselor with the Fresh Air Fund, St. Mary's Recreation Center, Variety Boys & Girls Club of Queens; part-time/occasional babysitting; being a Youth Empowerment Coach—I supported youth ages 14-26 on their journey to success and thriving in life. I also have experience working in the Child Welfare system. I’m passionate about ensuring the safety and well-being of children; and supporting them through their development. When it comes to childcare, I love engaging with children in activities of their interest and watching their personalities shine! In 2018, I graduated with my BA in Psychology from Medgar Evers College and have taken courses in early childhood and adolescence development. With that knowledge, along with my upbringing, I became aware of the importance of a child's development (emotional, physical, mental and much more) being fostered in a healthy environment with positive adult figures in their life to help guide them. I enjoy being apart of that community helping to raise our children. I have experience working with children/ youth from all age groups (work wise, 3 months - 17 years). Now as a new mom myself, I also have personal experience. I wholeheartedly understand how important it is to find loving, trusting individuals to care for your children. Currently, my daughter (23 months) comes with me to my childcare gigs. She's super friendly, loves playing with other children and is a joy to be around. For the families that have hired me with my child, there have not been any issues. I have experience with multiples and can manage all children's needs. If you are interested in having me work with your family or have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Thank you,  Brittany
