AS degree in Early Child Development
BA degree in Criminal Justice of Administration
Hi, I'm Ms Bri and I'm the Director of Kids Konnect San Leandro. I'm proud to say, I come to Kids Konnect with over 10 years of experience in the childcare industry. As a Bay Area native, I've attended college on the Peninsula and East Bay, earning an AS degree in Early Child Development and a BA degree in Criminal Justice of Administration.
As a kid, I always played school with my siblings. Sometimes I would be the student but, majority of the time I would role play as the teacher. Those play times, essentially became my motivation to pursue a career as a teacher and I did! I've been able to work with infants, toddlers, preschoolers and middle schoolers and have learned from each group of them and enjoyed working with them.
Working with children gives you the opportunity to learn something new everyday and build positive relationships with both the child and the parents. It's very rewarding to be able to contribute to their early stages of development and see them flourish through their social/emotional, cognitive, language and physical development skills. I cherish those moments in the classroom and look forward to experiencing with your child.

In my free time I like spending time with my son. I also like to go out dancing with my friends, shoot pool, bowling, and do my own nails for fun, as well as shopping!
I enjoy working with children because they represent hope for the future. To me working with children is a great opportunity to be of service to the community. Children teach you valuable life lessons, they teach you how to appreciate the little things in life.
I have worked with children for over 8 years and I enjoyed watching children develop. I have a passion for art which I'm able to share with children and the families.

BA in Liberal Studies Teaching and Minor in Child and Adolescent Development
Hi, my name is Emily. I have been working with children ever since I can remember but have been a teacher in the Bay Area since 2016. I always knew I wanted to be a teacher so I went into San Jose State studying to work with children in elementary. I accidentally stumbled on early childhood education and fell in love with it and decided to minor in Child Development and pursue that instead. I love watching children explore and learn new things on their own and with support. In my free time I love to spend time with my family, travel, and explore. I’m so excited to be part of Kids Konnect and look forward to working with all the families.

Hello, my name is Celia Mejia and I have been working with children for over 3 years. I have a true passion for working with our youngest learners. Helping each child progress in all areas of their development. I enjoy every aspect of teaching and have realized in my years that they can teach us as much as we teach them.
I am dedicated to the social and emotional development of each child and make it my goal to make sure that each child receives the best care and love that they all deserve. This is one of my favorite things about teaching.
During my free time, I enjoy cooking, gardening, and spending lots of time outdoors. I enjoy being around friends and family.

I’ve worked in the field of early childhood education since 2019 and it has been a transformative and amazing experience. I am motivated to teach children because I take pride in being someone who supports their growth. I enjoy making meaningful connections with children and parents. I became a teacher because I believe we all deserve an empowering childhood.
My teaching philosophy is that all children learn differently and those differences should be celebrated. I have an A.A in Liberal Arts, Social and Behavioral Sciences from College of Alameda. In addition I’m in the process of obtaining a B.A in Education at Cal State East Bay.

Hi I’m Ms. Stephanie and I am currently obtaining my degree in Early Education for the fall of 2023. I have worked with children for more than 10 years now and each day they always teach me something new! I enjoy working with children because it is very rewarding to see children learn, explore and achieve their developmental goals, but the absolute greatest reward is knowing that as their teacher I'm helping them develop a strong foundation for future academic success, foster social and emotional skills, and a sense of confidence and self-worth. Outside of working with children, I enjoy spending quality time with husband and children. We enjoy going to parks, family outings and hanging out. I’m so excited to get to know the children and build relationships with them and their famillies.

Having the first Eco healthy daycare in California for 15+ years, 3 kids of my own, working for 6 years at Child Family Community Services, and currently helping out at Kids Konnect too!
