About Me

Brandi chose to establish a career in early childhood education because she loves helping people grow and helping children learn more each day. When it comes to children's success, Brandi believes that the earlier you start, the more successes children will experience in their lives.

I have a way of communicating with the providers to understand all things that should happen in the classroom and helping them truly understand the "Why" behind what is being asked of them to perform. I understand things happen and do not always go as planned. I can model ways to help them get back on track and ensure our little ones succeed. Brandi is married to an “amazing man” of 15 years with three children “who are the joy of their lives”; two daughters (15 and 9) and a son (10). Her hobbies include swimming, spending time with family, and shopping. She also loves to travel and one place that she would like to travel to is Maine.
