I have been working with children ages 6-17 as an educator for the last 8 years and am currently completing my Waldorf Teacher Certification. I have babysat for family friends and friends of friends since I was a teenager. I enjoy interacting with children in ways that help them engage their own imagination and thought primarily through hands on activities or storytelling. I have been a long time outdoor educator and value the natural world and the importance of creating opportunities for children to experience nature. I also have plenty of experience working with children indoors while maintaining my goals of helping them learn about themselves, the world, and their relationship to it. I love building bridges between daily life experiences and the lessons we can learn each day, big and small. Most simply put, I just think it’s incredibly important to have fun, positive, and healthy experiences to help Read more children feel safe and confident in themselves and the world. A bit more about me: I live a simple life in the woods, gardening and taking care of some farm animals that we have. I’m working with adolescents this summer as a Climate Action Instructor and during the school year I am an assistant at a nearby Waldorf school. In my spare time I enjoy knitting, reading, playing music, cooking and eating tasty meals, and hiking with my hound dog.
