Bernice was born on August 28, 2006, to Isaac Mwangi and Esther Njeri in Maingi Village, Kiambu County.
She began her education in January 2010 at King’atua Primary School, where she completed her early childhood and primary studies. In 2017, she transferred to Kiambogo Primary School after joining the Shepherd’s Little Lambs family, made possible through her mother Esther’s employment with Little Lambs in Kijabe. The move allowed Bernice to remain actively involved with Little Lambs despite the distance from her previous school.
In March 2021, after delays caused by COVID-19, Bernice sat for her Kenya Certificate of Primary Education and performed well. She went on to attend Gachoire Girls High School from August 2021 until October 2024, when she completed her Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education. Her strong academic performance qualified her for university admission as a regular student.
With a natural strength in the humanities and social sciences, Bernice has been placed at Masinde Muliro University to pursue a degree in Social Work.
Beyond the classroom, Bernice served as Chairperson of the Music and Drama Club and is an active member of the AIC Grace Community Church youth group.
Bernice is deeply grateful for the care, encouragement, and support she has received from Shepherd’s Little Lambs over the years—and her journey is just beginning.
