Welcome to Stretch and Share, a delightful morning class designed especially for preschool-aged children. This class sets a peaceful rhythm for the day, combining mindful stretches, calming breathwork, and an opportunity for each child to share something special—whether it's a cherished toy or a beloved story. Class Structure: Warm Greeting and Stretching Exercise: We begin each session with a warm, simple greeting and a gentle stretching exercise to awaken our bodies and minds. Sharing Time with Stretching Breaks: Each child will have a chance to share something special with the class. Between each sharing, we'll introduce a different stretching exercise, promoting movement and mindfulness. Objectives: Gentle Movement: Encourage children to start their day with gentle, mindful stretches that promote physical well-being and relaxation. Positive Affirmations: Foster a positive mindset through affirmations and supportive interactions. Friendly Interactions: Create a nurturing environment where children feel comfortable sharing and listening, building social skills and confidence. Join us for Stretch and Share, where we blend movement, mindfulness, and meaningful connections to create a harmonious start to each child's day Children participating in Stretch and Share will need a safe space that allows for gentle stretching and movement. This space should be free of obstacles and provide enough room for each child to comfortably engage in the activities. Additionally, students should bring a water bottle to stay hydrated throughout the class, ensuring they remain refreshed and ready to fully participate in the stretches and sharing sessions. Stretch and Share is a Waldorf-inspired class that integrates the senses and prepares both mind and body for a positive day. Through mindful stretches, calming breathwork, and opportunities for sharing, this class nurtures the whole child. The gentle rhythm and sensory-rich activities create a harmonious environment, fostering strong friendships, communication, and listening skills. By encouraging children to connect with themselves and others, Stretch and Share lays the foundation for a day filled with joy, learning, and meaningful interactions.

Welcome to The Friendly Forest School!
I come to you with a wealth of knowledge, classroom experience, and a passion for teaching young children though play.
My classes follow a Waldorf-inspired approach that focuses on the holistic development of children, ensuring that academic skills are nurtured in an engaging and imaginative manner.
A predictable peaceful rhythm, delightful melodies, American Sign Language, and captivating tales (often set in the Friendly Forest) infuse every lesson, making learning a joyful exploration!I
By embracing the ebb and flow of nature's cycles, my goal is to help children feel grounded, secure, and ready to absorb knowledge with open hearts and curious minds.
ABOUT ME:
My journey began in the summer of 2001 when I had an internship in Early Childhood Education at the Children's Museum of Indianapolis. After graduating from Purdue University with my Bachelors Degree, I began working as a social worker and case manager for young children in LaPorte, Indiana.
I then moved to Phoenix, AZ and started my journey in Special Education, working as an in-home therapist for children with Autism and other developmental disabilities. I specialized in building expressive language through American Sign Language. Additionally, I focused on treating the whole child though sensory integration and positive behavior support. In 2005 I was named by the Governor as Arizona's "Caregiver of the Year"!
In 2006, I obtained my Masters Degree in Special Education and began working in a K-6 Self Contained Classroom. During this time I worked to develop an award winning School-wide Positive Behavior Intervention Support program based entirely on peace and mindfulness. I was awarded the "You Make a Difference" award by the Osborn School District for my work on this project!
My daughter, Eleanor, was born in 2010. In 2013 I left the classroom to be a full-time mama. My youngest daughter, Annalise, was born in 2013. During this time I began to adopt Waldorf philosophies at home and began homeschool using Waldorf and Montessori inspired pedagogy.
In 2017, I started my own Early Childhood Center called "Let's Play Learning". The developmentally appropriate curriculum was based on the view that children learn best when they are actively exploring the natural world and a carefully constructed environment in the company of their caregiver and directed by loving, professionally prepared teachers. I closed my doors at the beginning of the pandemic and began teaching online, which I love!
In my classes I strive to create a culture of peace and mindfulness while teaching academic skills through nature, imaginative play, storytelling, and artistic expression.
I now live with my family just five minutes away from beautiful Lake Michigan.
