My name is Nariko and I have been dedicated to the field of child care since 2024. With a deep passion for supporting children’s growth and development, I take pride in creating nurturing, safe, and engaging environments where young minds can thrive. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of working closely with children of all ages, and I find fulfillment in watching them learn, explore, and reach important milestones. As someone who has spent much of my life surrounded by children, I’m excited to soon begin my own journey into motherhood, expecting my first child in December 2025. My personal and professional experiences have shaped me into a compassionate, attentive, and patient caregiver, committed to making a positive impact in every child’s life.
Hi I'm Trinity! I joined Bright Beginnings In February of 2025 and truly enjoy working with our youngest learners. As an infant teacher, I focus on creating a safe, caring and consisten environment where babies can explore, grow and reach important milestones. I believe that early relationships are the foundation for healthy development, and i value building trust with both infants and their families. Each day, my goal is to provide nurturing care while supporting every child's individual needs and unique growth.
Hi, my name is Ms. Bridget (or as the children call me - Ms. B)! I've been in childcare since I was 18 years old and with Bright Beginnings Academy since 2019. I work with all age groups, but am currently with the twos. I have 3 children of my own. I love being around children. In my free time I like camping, boating and spending time with family and friends.

Hello! My name is Melissa A. I have 10 years of experience working with children. I have two children of my own, and we enjoy going to parks and concerts. I enjoy being able to watch the children learn something new each and every day!
I'm Ava, as a former BBA kid, I'm back, but as a float teacher. I bring energy, empathy, and adaptability to my role as a float teacher, seamlessly supporting classrooms across all age groups. Outside the classroom, my heart stays just as full—I volunteer with a local dog rescue, helping pups find their forever homes. You can also see me hitting the field for some friendly competition as a softball enthusiast. When I graduate high school I hope to attend a college and major in teaching.

Hi, my name is Cassandra. I’ve always had a passion for working with children—it’s in those little moments, like the sparkle in their eyes when they learn something new or proudly say, “look what I can do,” that I find true joy. I’m a proud mother of six biological children and have also helped raise three others who have deeply impacted my life. These experiences have given me a strong foundation in patience, compassion, and understanding—qualities I bring into my work every day. Since starting my career in childcare in 2022, I’ve loved every moment of it. I’m committed to creating a nurturing and supportive environment where children feel safe, valued, and excited to learn and grow.
