education
Newborn Specialist + Certified Day Doula, I provide care, in your
home, for newborns up to age one, as an early childhood
specialist + certified day doula through Birth Arts International. I
am available for part time, full time, short term care during the day
and evening. I believe my experience, dedication, intuition and
passion is a gift. I would like to share this with your family. I offer a
holistic approach to child care. I hold a masters degree from
Sonoma State University, California with a specialization in
Psychology, Child Development + Expressive Arts. My educational
background is deeply rooted in a natural approach that
incorporates the RIE + Reggio philosophies of parenting. I enjoy
setting up engaging learning environments that encompass the
elements of how children truly learn through a nurturing routine,
respect, support, curiosity, experimentation, research,
collaboration, exposure to nature and love.
