Hi, my name is Denise Bradford and I’m 49 years old. I am so excited to have the opportunity to spend time with your child/ren. You will find that I am a loving and responsible woman that is also a mom of three college age daughters (and aunt of all ages) who can’t wait to get acquainted and have fun with any child I meet.
I have lived in Mission Viejo for over 23 years. I attended USC as an undergraduate German & International Relations Minor and CS Fullerton for my MS (Administration). I am a fully credentialed teacher, currently teaching kindergarten. I have taught YMCA mommy and me, most primary grades as well as high school and adults. I speak German and I have taught English as a Second Language for over 20 years so I am quite good at getting along in most any language. I have also lived and taught in Vienna, Austria.
Being active and keeping children healthy and safe is important to me therefore, I have coached and played many sports including soccer, softball, and volleyball. I enjoy swimming, tennis, pilates, snow skiing, bike riding, most outdoor sports. Quiet time is also important so I love to read, quilt, craft, and scrapbook. I enjoy these activities both on my own and teaching the younger generations that they too can create. If there is an activity your child can come up with, we can probably create it 🙂 I am completely computer literate, however, I will confess to promoting board games over video games
