Early Learning Teacher
Damaris Alves - Damaris Alves

As an Early Childhood Educator, my passion lies in creating a nurturing, stimulating, and child-centered classroom environment where every child feels safe, inspired, and eager to explore. I believe in fostering wonder and fun both indoors and outdoors, integrating these elements into every aspect of learning. My goal is to empower each child to reach their full potential, equipping them with lifelong academic and emotional skills to thrive as confident, compassionate global citizens. Beyond the classroom, I love exploring nature, finding joy in activities like hiking, camping, and discovering waterfalls and beaches. I also enjoy swimming, cooking, reading, and watching movies.

I am thrilled about joining Northbridge and contributing to the community, connecting with fellow educators, and enriching the lives of young learners through collaborative knowledge sharing and meaningful interactions.
