About Nikki

Hi families! My name is Nikki, and I'm currently a first-grade teacher in the Philadelphia School District. I earned my teaching certification through the University of Pennsylvania's Urban Teaching Residency Program. With a strong background in education and child development, I'm confident in my ability to provide children with safe, nurturing, and engaging care. I'd describe my personality as patient, open-minded, and kind. I began working with children during my high school years, babysitting for various families in my hometown. In my spare time, I like to practice barre/yoga, read, and spend time with friends and family!
