With over three decades of dedicated service in the childcare industry, my journey began in 1991 with the founding of Enchanted Forest, a premier daycare and learning center built on the values of safety, trust, and educational excellence. Known affectionately by families as "Miss Tina," I have spent my career operating under a philosophy that care should be "just right"—balancing professional standards with a warm, nurturing touch. As a business owner and credentialed provider, I've navigated everything from daily curriculum development to complex facility management, always with a focus on the well-being of the children in my care. Gala Nanny was born from a desire to bring that same level of elite, professional oversight to life's most celebrated moments. Whether it's a wedding or a corporate gala, I believe parents should be able to celebrate fully, knowing their children are experiencing an environment that is not only safe and non-toxic but genuinely enriching.
