My Summary
About Me
Hello!
My name is Bruna Maia and I am a qualified educator from Brazil with over 8 years of experience working with children of various ages and backgrounds. I hold a degree in Education and have a strong passion for supporting children’s development in a safe, nurturing and engaging environment.
I am a responsible, caring and dedicated professional with a calm and friendly approach. Throughout my career, I’ve had the opportunity to work in diverse educational settings, both in Brazil and internationally. In Brazil, I worked as a Preschool Teacher and during my time in Ireland, I spent a year working in a Creche/Montessori setting. More recently, in the United Kingdom, I have worked for nine months as a Nursery Nurse Practitioner and currently serve as a Teaching Assistant in schools.
I hold an enhanced DBS check and have completed a Paediatric First Aid course, ensuring that I can respond appropriately in emergency situations and provide a safe environment for the children under my care.
I am committed to delivering high-quality care and education, always prioritizing the well-being and individual needs of each child.
If you would like to know more about my experience or qualifications, please feel free to get in touch — I’d be happy to answer any questions.
Thank you for taking the time to read my profile.
Warm regards,
Bruna Maia
