I’m an Icelandic Fairy who loves to play and create with kids! Diving into the world of children is a pure pleasure to me and even in the most normal every day tasks, I like to find wonder and magic with them. As a certified Kids Yoga teacher I have tools and playful exercises along with crafting skills that I share upon request in my work. Kids with special skills and needs are of high interest as I have good experience with them and a great connector there. As a co-teacher in a Fairy School for couple of years, I’ve worked a lot with highly sensitives and I have a special way of connecting with them. Sensitive or not sensitive! I love most kids in all ages and am curious of what I can assist them with in their everyday life! Open for either a setup “Fairy Play Date” services, Read more private or in groups as well as an occasional sitter few hours a week! I have over a decade of experience and many great references available upon request! If this resonates with your needs, let’s get the conversation going! ✨ magic to your day ✨ Jósa
