Hello, My Name is Haley Brinkmeier and I have been working in Early Childhood for almost 10 years. I began teaching 1-year old’s when I was 18 years old and found a passion working with young children and understanding their developing minds. I have my bachelor’s degree in Child Development from the University of Central Florida and my Directors Credential with a VPK endorsement. I believe that early childhood education is crucial in fostering children’s social, emotional, and cognitive development. During my years of experience in the field I have worked with children and families from all backgrounds and one of my favorite aspects of this job is getting to know all my families and creating a home away from home for the children in my care.
