I am dedicated to helping nurture the next generation of humans. Connecting to the land is essential for children learning to ground and regulate as well as to feel the sensations of joy, safety, and centeredness. My bachelor’s degree is in Environmental Education, and I have worked in a variety of related professional settings from residential outdoor education programs to state parks to sustainable farming camps. I hold my Permaculture Design Certificate and am currently training as a clinical herbalist. I enjoy organic gardening and foraging as well as cooking and food preservation. I love to get kids involved with these skills and to help them live into a rhythm of seasonality. Not only fun, these activities are also a way to introduce important ecological and natural history concepts. I personally support outdoor free play whenever it’s safe and feasible, even (especially!) in the wintertime. I encourage kids in developing Read more autonomy along with body and emotional awareness. I also promote creative expression through the use of natural and recycled materials in artistry and craft. I am primarily a stay-at-home-mother, so depending on scheduling, my three-and-a-half-year-old son may come along with me for babysitting.

Trust & safety
