About Iraia

Hi! I'm Iraia, a preschool teacher in NYC and a graduate student pursuing my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. I have 8+ years of experience working with children of all ages, from infants through high school, as a nanny, babysitter, teacher, and Registered Behavior Technician (RBT). I am CPR certified and have extensive experience supporting children with diverse developmental, behavioral, and emotional needs, including children with special needs. My background allows me to create a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment while adapting to each child's unique personality and needs. I love being active and hands-on with kids, whether that means arts and crafts, outdoor play, reading, homework help, games, or simply finding creative ways to make everyday moments fun. Families describe me as warm, reliable, patient, and professional. I take pride in building strong relationships with both children and parents and providing care that families can truly trust.
