Profile

I have cared for young children most of my life, beginning as a babysitter at age 11, teaching Art at all levels over 30 years, teaching in Montessori schools for 15 years, nannying for multiple families, developing outdoor programming for children during the pandemic, taking National Geographic Certification coursework, numerous professional development hours related to children"s growth and raising my three children.I love to be in the presence of children as we learn together. I believe in a model of 'freedom within limits' and 'follow the child' as my approach to care. I believe in honoring the child through active listening and open communication regarding social/emotional growth. I do not believe in punitive discipline. I love to be outdoors and explore the wonders of nature and I'm a very positive person.
