About the store
I’m a Montessori educator and school founder with nearly 20 years of experience guiding children in toddler, primary, and elementary classrooms. My teaching is deeply inspired by botany, art, geography, and the natural world, and my resources reflect a love of hands-on, meaningful learning. In my classroom, children might be tending a garden, gathering eggs from our friendly chickens, or exploring science and art through natural dyes (yes—even with snow!).
If you’re looking for thoughtfully designed, Montessori-inspired materials that connect learning to the real world, you’re in the right place.

If you’re looking for thoughtfully designed, Montessori-inspired materials that connect learning to the real world, you’re in the right place.
Teaching style
Alongside many years in the classroom, I now work as a Montessori school consultant and Business Coach, supporting educators and schools in deepening authentic Montessori practice. My teaching style blends practical experience, thoughtful guidance, and a deep respect for the child and the learning environment.
As a Business Coach, I also help other early care educators start and sustain their preschool business. You can find my trainings on Udemy on how to start a preschool, market your preschool and gain enrollments, and set your rates. I help preschools go from merely Surviving to fully Thriving!
