About me

My name is Isabelle, but you can call me Bella. I live in Brooklyn, close to park slope, but I grew up in Brazil. I have a B.A in business and have a Technical Certificate in Software Engineering, but due to the current rough market in the technology industry, I'm pursuing my passion for working with kids!


I've been working with kids since I was 17, first as a daycare helper for a whole year and it was the most amazing and eye-opening experience. That's when I saw what I was really meant to be doing. I am experienced with multiple kids (twins included!), kids on the spectrum, and speech and learning delays. Also with ages from infants, babies, toddlers, and elementary. While working with those ages, I mostly followed the Montessori method, with lots of sign language included in daily life to improve communication. I also introduced kids to BLW, social skills by arranging playdates, and many other milestone activities. I love how we can play and learn together while discovering the world! I helped kids with remote and in-person learning. I speak Portuguese, Spanish, and English and am currently learning French! I'd describe my personality as fun, caring and perceptive.

I believe that children become a reflection of the world they were raised in. And for that, raising a kid with love, patience, kindness, and well-worth values are my main goals when working with childcare. I want to be able to change the world into a better place, and since the world is gonna be formed by the people we are creating now, I think it's an amazing place to start!
