Christina Braid
Educator. Mentor. Lifelong Learner.
For nearly two decades, my life’s work has centered around supporting children and families through some of their most important seasons of growth. Whether in the classroom, alongside new parents, or in communities around the world, I have always believed that learning happens best when children feel safe, seen, and deeply connected to the world around them.
Over the past eight years, I have had the privilege of teaching in public elementary schools, helping young learners build strong foundations in literacy, confidence, and curiosity. Before entering the classroom, I spent many years living in Peru and working with families as a birth worker and educator. Those experiences deepened my appreciation for different cultures, languages, and the many ways children learn and thrive.
As a bilingual educator and ESOL-endorsed teacher, I am passionate about helping children develop not only academically, but also as confident communicators and global citizens. I believe that language opens doors to connection, understanding, and a broader view of the world.

“I believe that children learn best when they feel connected, capable, and inspired. My hope is to create a space where every child feels valued, supported, and excited to learn.”
