I am a performing arts educator, administrator and artist who recently relocated to Brooklyn from the Boston area. I absolutely adore working with children and engaging them in imaginative and creative activities. With extensive experience in childcare and managing a classroom, I embrace opportunities to create "teachable moments" throughout the day. Friends would describe me as observant, silly and patient. I can quickly and easily adapt to various parenting styles and family structures and am also happy to share my 15+ years of experience if invited to. I am well versed in RIE and attachment parenting styles and am happy to expand my knowledge to accommodate families' needs.
