Having learned firsthand how challenging it can be to access resources your family needs, Brenda’s priority is to help the individual needs of each family in offering all the help she has to offer. She knows how important it is to let families know they are heard and that someone is there for them. Brenda’s compassion is matched by her experience and expertise. She has a bachelor’s degree in early child development and over 30+years of experience working with birth-5 children and their families both in the classroom and in their homes as a home visitor. She has served children with a variety of diagnoses and developmental delays. Brenda is a Parent Educator focusing on development through the preschool years, Early Intervention Specialist & Help Me Grow Community Outreach Specialist. She is currently endorsed in the Transdisciplinary Mental Health Practitioner Mentorship Program through the State of California and West Ed. All this knowledge and experience power her to close the gap between the families in need and the services that will make all the difference in their lives. Brenda is ready to connect and guide families on their path to empowerment.
