Our Teachers

I have just graduated from the UAGC with my bachelor’s degree in ECE this past September of 2023. I have been a lead teacher in a classroom for the last three years at Kids in Zion. I have made a profound impact on my students and I have great relationships with their parents as well.

Philosophy

At Tonia’s Bright Minds Daycare, I strive to create a safe and caring place where the children will feel loved. As for my teaching, I want the children to learn through play I want them to be able to work on their emotional, social, and communication skills. I want them to feel as if they can explore all the things around them no matter their age.

Location

My program is on the east side of Detroit and we are down the street from a park. A few blocks from a public library that the children can go to at least one time a week and on the weekends. We will help you get your child potty trained, I will also do school pick-up if the child goes to school close to the daycare. I do homework help as well.

About our program

My program will be a family-style daycare offering three males daily and three snacks. I want the children to feel loved and safe while away from their parents. I like the parents to know that they do not have to be worried when their children are in my care. I will make sure that the children have fun as they learn through play.
