I am an artist and naturalist I love nature and sharing experiences with kids and family the beauty of nature. I am always entertained by the minds of kids and believe they are the most profound humans. I love to create with them from art, cooking, games, music, dance, imaginary play, nature walks and more. I speak some Portuguese and Spanish and am able to share my languages with them as well. I am looking to help families with that Read more extra hand we all need in these times.
